00:01Luigi Mangioni, on trial for the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson,
00:06leaves court two charges lighter, after a New York State judge determined that he had not committed an act of terrorism.
00:14In his decision, Justice Gregory Caro said that the ideological nature of the healthcare executive's killing
00:20did not justify terrorism charges.
00:23There is no indication in the statute that a murder committed for ideological reasons,
00:29in this case the defendant's apparent desire to draw attention to what he perceived as inequalities or greed within the American healthcare system,
00:38fits within the definition of terrorism.
00:41The evidence presented failed to establish that the defendant committed the crime to coerce or intimidate a civilian population,
00:50and therefore the first two counts of the indictment are dismissed.
00:55Mangioni has become a Robin Hood-esque hero for many Americans facing crushing healthcare costs.
01:02Writings from the 27-year-old harshly condemn insurance companies who deny healthcare coverage,
01:07saying their executives had it coming.
01:10His supporters gathered outside of the courthouse,
01:13wearing green hats in reference to the Nintendo video game character Luigi.
01:18Mangioni is set to reappear in the state court on December 1st, charged with second-degree murder, among other crimes.
01:27If convicted, he could face life in prison.
01:30He is also facing a federal case, with the U.S. Justice Department seeking the death penalty.
01:36And the sequence is working on the left to the Supreme Court.
01:41He is the term for the Supreme Court,
01:43with the Supreme Court of Emerald Corps,
01:45with the Supreme Court of Governors and National Service of the United States.
01:46And that's the case, with the Supreme Court of the Norex,
01:47and with the Supreme Court of the Supreme Court of Governors.
01:48And that the Supreme Court of the Regents,
01:49and with the Supreme Court of the 기억�� Bill Clintonите,
01:50is to make sure that the Supreme Court of the Emerald Projects became an authority.
01:51And that's one of the three acts of the Supreme Court of Academy of lesteros,
01:53the Supreme Court of the República's Conference of the Community,
01:55the Supreme Court of the Peripher.
