Luigi Mangione wants five pairs of socks for an upcoming hearing. Here's what that request reveals.
"The public court schedule only says that Mangione is scheduled to be in court on Monday, December 1. The request for five pairs of socks signals that Mangione's defense team could be bracing for a possible Monday-through-Friday hearing lasting the entirety of the first week of December - including December 4, the one-year anniversary of Thompson's shooting on a Manhattan sidewalk."
"The newly-approved clothing request also includes two suits, three shirts, three sweaters, three pairs of pants, and one pair of shoes without laces. The upcoming hearing concerns extensive evidentiary challenges involving Mangione's arrest and is set to be the first time Mangione is in court for more than a brief, one-day appearance.
