HOLLIDAYSBURG, Pa. — UnitedHealthcare CEO murder suspect Luigi Mangione will return to New York City Thursday after waiving extradition in Pennsylvania .
Mangione could appear in front of a judge in New York City for arraignment on first degree murder and terrorism charges in just a matter of hours.
The 26-year-old did not speak to reporters as he arrived at a Pennsylvania courthouse for his extradition hearing. NYPD detectives were on hand to ensure Mangione is transported back to New York City for his arraignment. Mangione is being brought back to New York without returning to prison in Pennsylvania.
Mangione is expected to appear in a court in Manhattan Thursday for arraignment. He is then expected to be held at Rikers Island, where he will be in isolation and protective custody because of his high-profile status, sources said.
Mangione expected to face federal charge as well, sources say
Two sources familiar with the matter told CBS News he is also expected to be charged with a federal crime in the case.
