On April 1 DOJ announced it will seek the death penalty against Mangione.

Late on December 2 Inner City Press emailed, then on December 3 faxed and hand-delivered, a letter asking to be heard and for unsealing, here.
After handing in the letter and getting it stamped at 10 am, Inner City Press stayed in and covered Justice Carro's courtroom past 5 pm. Then:
Justice Carro said, "Mr. Lee? Come up to the rail." I did. He said, I've read your letter. I intend tomorrow to decide what part of what is being presented came be made public to the Press. And on December 4 he said it would happened (we continue to await past 5 pm, but believe). On the stand December 4 was Officer Frye, jousting with Jacob Kaplan. How many more days?
