A white gunman who killed 10 Black people in a Buffalo, New York, supermarket is requesting to move his death penalty trial to New York City to be judged by a racially diverse jury, according to his attorney's court filing.

The attorney general said the decision to seek the death penalty for Luigi Mangione, who is accused of murdering an insurance executive, was in keeping with an executive order by President Trump.

Attorneys for a white gunman who killed 10 Black people at a Buffalo, New York, supermarket want to move his federal death penalty trial to New York City.

Luigi Mangione's lawyer said the death penalty backs the industry "that continues to terrorize the American people."

Luigi Mangione was arrested last December and charged with federal and state murder charges related to UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson’s killing.

The death penalty is also banned in the District of Columbia and in 22 other states, aside from New Jersey. In New York, the death penalty was outlawed in 2004 by a state court ruling. This means that New York prosecutors cannot pursue the death penalty in the case of Luigi Mangione.

Attorney General Pam Bondi said the Justice Department will seek the death penalty for accused CEO killer Luigi Mangione.

NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi said Tuesday that she has directed prosecutors to seek the death penalty against Luigi Mangione, the man accused of gunning down UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, following through on the president’s campaign promise to vigorously pursue capital punishment.
