The video includes the search of Mangione&#8217;s bag when he was apprehended at an Altoona McDonald&#8217;s, the retrieval of the murder weapon and Mangione&#8217;s transport in a squad car.<\/p>\n<p>This is the first time most of the footage has been seen outside court, including a redacted version of Mangione&#8217;s strip search.<\/p>\n<p>The video included much of what was played during a three-week evidentiary hearing when defense attorneys argued the evidence should be suppressed. The judge decided much of it could be used but kept it under seal.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In August, Mangione pleaded guilty to two federal stalking counts in connection with Thompson&#8217;s killing, and now the Manhattan district attorney&#8217;s office is facing a deadline later this month to respond to Mangione&#8217;s motion to dismiss the state indictment against him.<\/p>\n<p>Mangione admitted to the crime in federal court in August, saying, &#8220;I used a 3-D printer to make part of a gun, and I equipped the gun with the silencer and the magazine.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I shot Mr. Thompson in Manhattan and he died,&#8221; he said, adding, &#8220;I knew what I was doing was illegal.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mangione&#8217;s sentencing in the federal case is set for Dec. 18.<\/p>\n<p>Copyright \u00a9 2026, ABC Audio.
