Bragg said he was confident Mangione is the person who fired three rounds into the torso of Thompson last week, killing the health care executive and setting off a firestorm of vitriol online.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">&#8220;We would not charge the person if we didn&#8217;t think it was the person, and we&#8217;re prepared to go forward and we&#8217;re on the path to accountability and justice,&#8221; Bragg said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">Once the former Ivy Leaguer is extradited to New York, Bragg said Mangione will face a team of Manhattan&#8217;s most seasoned homicide prosecutors. The DA acknowledged that the nature of the alleged crime is &#8220;extraordinarily scary.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">&#8220;It is very scary, and it is something that has the attention of so many who live here, so many who come to work here, and rightfully so,&#8221; Bragg said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">Bragg&#8217;s comments come the same day that the New York Police Department offered the first forensic evidence linking Mangione to the alleged crime. According to Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch, fingerprints from the crime scene have been matched to Mangione, and three shell casings recovered following the midtown shooting were matched to Mangione&#8217;s 3D-printed handgun. Bragg&#8217;s office said his office has focused on combating so-called ghost guns since the beginning of his tenure as district attorney.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">&#8220;It&#8217;s something we&#8217;re seeing more and more in use, speaking generally. It&#8217;s something also we&#8217;ve seen people who are younger and younger working on,&#8221; Bragg said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">Asked why Mangione was charged with second-degree murder, Bragg told ABC News that prosecutors wanted to bring charges quickly and first-degree murder &#8220;has a number of delineated circumstances.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">&#8220;Murder 2 is the intentional killing of a person, punishable by 25 years to life under New York law,&#8221; Bragg said. &#8220;Murder 1 has a number of delineated circumstances, including, for example, a serial murder, murder of a witness, murder of a police officer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">Bragg has found himself at the center of multiple high-profile cases &#8212; including his conviction of former President Donald Trump and recent acquittal of Marine veteran Daniel Penny. With the Mangione case, Bragg is expected to face not only a high-profile prosecution but also a groundswell of public support for the accused murderer,.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">&#8220;I &#8230; have spent time with families of homicide victims with survivors of violent crime,&#8221; Bragg said. &#8220;That&#8217;s the centerpiece of our work, and to think that there are others celebrating this conduct is beyond comprehension to me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \"><a class=\"zZygg UbGlr iFzkS qdXbA WCDhQ DbOXS tqUtK GpWVU iJYzE \" data-testid=\"prism-linkbase\" href=\"https:\/\/6abc.com\/post\/who-killed-unitedhealthcare-ceo-brian-thompson-what-we-know-suspect\/15631638\/\">Mangione, a 26-year-old Ivy League graduate<\/a>, is accused of shooting Thompson outside a Midtown Manhattan hotel on Dec. 4 while the CEO was heading to an investors conference.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy \">Thompson&#8217;s murder ignited online anger at the health insurance industry and some people online have celebrated the suspect.<\/p>\n<p class=\"EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC eTIW sUzSN \">&#8220;Celebrating murder is abhorrent,&#8221; Bragg said. &#8220;I sit across the table from families who&#8217;ve had a loved one killed.
