Mangione's Legal Battle Over Capital Punishment

Federal prosecutors urged Judge Garnett to reject dismissal and bar capital punishment in Mangione's case.
Defense claims Attorney General Pam Bondi's actions prejudiced the case and tainted the grand jury.
Surveillance video shows masked gunman shot Thompson, leading to Mangione's arrest at McDonald's in Altoona, PA.
Prosecutors argue pretrial publicity is not a constitutional defect and urge suppression of evidence.
Mangione's next federal court date is Jan. 9 after pleading not guilty to murder charges.
