Overview
- Prosecutors played arrest footage in Manhattan court showing Luigi Mangione calmly presenting a fake ID under the name “Mark Rosario” at a McDonald’s in Altoona.
- Pennsylvania State Police Officer Stephen Fox testified about the arrest and recalled Mangione saying to onlookers, “All these people are here for a mass murderer? Wild.”
- Images and testimony detailed items seized from Mangione’s backpack, including a loaded handgun, a silencer, a magazine wrapped in underwear, a passport, electronics, and a notebook with notes such as “keep momentum, FBI is slower.”
- Prosecutors argued the warrantless seizure was justified after the fake ID was presented, while two subsequent search warrants for property were authorized by Blair County First Deputy District Attorney Nichole Smith.
- Mangione has pleaded not guilty to state, federal, and Pennsylvania charges that include murder, stalking, and weapons offenses, with federal counts carrying potential death-penalty exposure.
