We got LM’s defense heading out of the courthouse — dressed their best to impress the judge — but they were mum as to what was ailing Luigi.
Mangione’s pretrial hearing in the New York state case began Monday … with the alleged killer leaving behind the confines of MDC Brooklyn for an NYC courtroom where he was photographed chatting with his lawyers — looking put together in a nice suit sans tie.
Prosecutors have played the body cam footage of Luigi’s arrest following the shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson at a McDonald’s in Pennsylvania … during which he allegedly gave cops a fake I.D.
The defense is asking the judge to exclude that and other evidence, on ground Luigi wasn’t given his Miranda rights.
