Federal and state prosecutors have charged Luigi Mangione in the killing of UnitedHealthcare's CEO in Manhattan, pursuing parallel prosecutions that could complicate the case.
The maximum punishment for state charges against Mr. Mangione is life without parole, while federal charges could lead to the death penalty.
Jessica Roth, a law professor, indicated that simultaneous federal and state cases can happen, especially when a state's resources or penalties are in question.
Edward Y. Kim, the acting U.S. attorney, mentioned that the state case is likely to go to trial before the federal one, highlighting coordination efforts.
