TRUMP’S Bold Justice: Death Penalty Demanded in CEO Murder Shocker
— Federal prosecutors will seek the death penalty for Luigi Mangione, who is accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson outside a New York City hotel. Attorney General Pam Bondi says this is the first federal death penalty case under President Trump’s push to crack down on violent crime. Mangione faces both federal and state charges, sparking strong debate over capital punishment. Violent crime is rising across North America. A mass shooting in Myrtle Beach left several dead, and a firefighter paramedic was stabbed to death in Missouri. In Canada, a violent rampage in Vancouver has caused outrage and heated political talk. Police also arrested an ISIS suspect tied to a Bourbon Street terror attack in New Orleans. These crimes have led many Americans to call for tougher security as worries about public safety grow.
