The family of slain UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was present in a Manhattan federal courtroom on Friday as Luigi Mangione faced a judge.
Thompson's mother, widow, and several other relatives took their seats together in the front row ahead of the highly anticipated hearing.
Mangione is expected to plead guilty to the two remaining federal stalking counts stemming from the 2024 killing of Thompson.
The hearing marks a significant step in the case, with the victim's family observing the proceedings closely.
Authorities have not released further details about the plea or potential sentencing.
