18 hours agoLuigi Mangione Seizes Small Win At Pretrial Hearing - Above the Law
Evidence from a warrantless search of a backpack at a McDonald's was suppressed because police violated constitutionally protected rights.
The New York police lieutenant leading the investigation into the shooting testified that he set up recording equipment inside an interrogation room in the Altoona station house after Mangione was apprehended in a Pennsylvania McDonald's five days after the shooting. But when asked by defense attorney Marc Agnifilo if he knew whether it was legal to record someone in Pennsylvania without their knowledge, he conceded he did not know.
