Luigi Mangione was indicted Thursday on a federal murder charge in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, a required step as prosecutors work to make good on the Trump administrations order to seek the death penalty for what it called a premeditated, coldblooded assassination that shocked America.
