Warrantless Search Challenged in Mangione Case
Update: 2025-12-12
Description
Defense attorneys challenge key evidence in Luigi Mangiones case, accused of shooting a healthcare CEO. The focus is on a handgun and other items found in a warrantless search of his backpack. Mangione was arrested in December 2024, during a manhunt. Prosecutors and defense lawyers have been scrutinizing evidence in a multi-day hearing. Defense attorneys argue the search of the bag was improper and violated Mangiones rights. Officials found an ammunition magazine, a red notebook, a handgun, and a silencer. Defense attorneys dispute the manifesto characterization. Altoona police Lieutenant William Hanelly defended the warrantless search, stating it was incident to arrest. Testimony is expected to continue through next week, as both sides present arguments regarding the legality of the evidence.
