DEFENSE: MANGIONE'S "BEAUTIFUL, PROMISING LIFE DERAILED" BY MURDER CHARGES."

Luigi Mangione's defense team describes his "Beautiful, promising life" "derailed" by the murder charges against him. This phrasing is not highlighted as a saying from Mangione's groupies, but a phrase coming from Mangione's attorney as part of a legal motion filed to dismiss the federal case or get the death penalty tossed. As part of an evidence suppression hearing, in the upcoming trial of Luigi Mangione, prosecutors play a 911 call placed by the manager of a McDonald's in Altoona, Pennsylvania. The McDonald's manager is not identified, and the hearing is the first time the 911 call is played in public.  The manger is apologetic as she tells the 911 operator she tried the non-emergency line first, and continues taking orders as she tells the operator, "I have a customer here some other customers were suspicious of, that he looks like the CEO shooter in New York. And they're just really upset and come to me, and I'm like, I can't approach him." The 911 operator, Emily States, testifies and is heard asking for a description of the individual with the manager replying "the only thing you can see is the eyebrows." Mangione defense attorney Marc Agnifilo objects to the 911 call being played, but the judge says he is allowing the call for this hearing.  Mangione enters the courtroom in shackles, but the judge allows Mangione to sit unshackled and take notes at the defense table.  Long lines outside the courthouse filled with women and men supporters trying to enter the hearing hoping to get a glimpse of the alleged CEO murderer. Mangione defense team is trying to prevent several key pieces of evidence from being allowed at trial, like the comment about the 3-D printed pistol. Angifilo claims conversations with correction officers were illegally coerced and should not be allowed. Defense claims Mangione is questioned for 20 minutes by Altoona Police Officer Joseph Detwiler without being read his Miranda rights therefore prosecutors should not be allowed to introduce any testimony about statements made by Mangione to police.
