The Towson native accused of fatally shooting the UnitedHealthcare CEO will not appear in court this week.
Luigi Mangione was supposed to appear in a Manhattan federal court Wednesday. However, court records show his case has been postponed until April 18.
Mangione last appeared in federal court on Feb. 21. No reason was immediately provided for the docket change.
Mangione is accused of shooting Brian Thompson on Dec. 4 outside a Manhattan hotel where he was walking to an investor conference.
Mangione faces separate prosecutions. Two in New York, one for state murder charges and another for federal charges, including terrorism. He also faces prosecution in Pennsylvania.
Defense attorneys for Mangione said his rights were violated by Altoona police in Pennsylvania. They claimed that the search and arrest at the restaurant were illegal.
