A federal judge has dismissed the death penalty-eligible murder and weapons charges against Luigi Mangione, accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

The judge ruled they did not constitute crimes of violence. This removes the death penalty. Federal stalking charges remain, with a trial set to potentially begin in October 2026 after jury selection in September.

There is also a push for state murder charges.

Also happening surrounding Mangione: a Minnesota man is arrested after trying to break the accused killer free. Mark Anderson reportedly presented himself at a New York federal jail claiming to be an FBI agent. He said he had a court order to release Mangione.

Anderson also allegedly said he had weapons on him. Inside a bag he was carrying, he had a barbecue fork and a circular steel blade that resembled a pizza cutter.

Here's some of our top stories this week:

Former top ultra-luxury real estate broker brothers Oren and Tal Alexander along with a third sibling, are accused of being sexual predators who together raped dozens of women and girls and then "celebrated their crimes," a federal prosecutor tells jurors Tuesday. And one of the victims, who spoke under a fictitious name, is among several alleged victims slated to testify against Tal, Oren, and Alon Alexander, who face accusations of drugging and raping women and girls over several years.

During a recent hearing, Carroll County Superior Court Judge Dustin Hightower expressed that there had been no significant changes in the circumstances that would justify freeing Sarah Grace Patrick from her solitary confinement since her arrest in August 2025.

A twisted Missouri couple is cuffed & stuffed behind bars after their years-long abuse is finally exposed. Cops say the disgusting duo caged the kids in a chicken coop, starved & shot them...and forced them to fight.

A Texas man is executed for the 1998 killings of his ex-girlfriend and her new boyfriend, ending a case that stretched nearly three decades. Newly unsealed court filings now detail how University of Idaho student Xana Kernodle fought for her life during the November 13th, twenty twenty-two murders at an off-campus home in Moscow, Idaho.
