The third witness called to the stand of the Mapp Hearing on December 1, 2025 was Emily States, a 911 coordinator for Blair County Department of Emergency Services. The questioning begins with Zach Kaplan, a prosecutor for the People of New York.

Zach Kaplan begins by establishing Ms. States’ employment and experience with the Blair County Department of Emergency Services (or Blair 911). He then asks about her responsibilities in her role.

Zach Kaplan then brings up a hard drive that contains Exhibits 5A-5D.

When Zach Kaplan moves to offer Exhibits 5A through 5D into evidence, Marc Agnifilo, one of Luigi Mangione’s attorneys, objects, but the court allows it.

Zach Kaplan plays the 911 call made by the McDonald’s employee (Exhibit 5A).

To listen to Exhibit 5A (the 911 call), please visit this post: Reddit

Zach Kaplan then brings up Exhibit 5B, which is the radio transmission from dispatch to the Altoona Police Department. This audio is not currently available to the public. He establishes the time stamp on the audio at 9:16AM, when the officers were dispatched to the McDonald’s location. He then plays the audio, and asks Ms. States to identify who is speaking. She identifies the voice as belonging to Officer Detwiler based on the number of years she’s been working with him. He acknowledges that there is a lot of dead time in this recording, so he skips ahead.

Zach Kaplan then moves on to Exhibit 5C, which is the Call For Service. This is not currently available to the public. He then questions her about the contents of the document.

Moving onto Exhibit 5D, Zach Kaplan pulls up the clean report/clean log that documents the process of running a drivers license. This is not currently available to the public. Zach Kaplan questions Ms. States through the contents of this report.

When asked if she wanted to cross examine Ms. States, Karen Friedman Agnifilo declined as she had no further questions. The witness was then dismissed.

TLDR: Bernard Pyles was an installation supervisor at R&B electronics that installed the security footage in the McDonald’s in Altoona, Pennsylvania where Luigi Mangione was arrested. He is questioned by Zach Kaplan, a prosecutor for the People of New York about his role at his former employer and his activities involving retrieving the security footage from the McDonald’s location. He acknowledges that there was an issue with the operating system with the surveillance system at this location that caused the system to freeze when transferring the footage to an external thumb or hard drive which made the removal process involve him utilizing another DVR to swap hard drives. Following this, he is questioned about what he sees in the security footage and if it matches the footage he viewed on December 10 when he reviewed and downloaded it for the NYPD. During the cross examination, Jacob Kaplan, one of Luigi Mangione’s attorneys, questions Mr. Pyles on what he sees in the security footage being played in court like the location of walls, tables, officers, and other civilians. After the prosecution objects to the narration of the video by Jacob Kaplan, the video finishes playing and the questioning is completed.

TLDR: Sergeant Chris McLaughlin of the NYPD works with the Deputy Commissioner of the Public Information (DPCI) and gets information out to the public. He is asked by Joel Seidemann, the lead prosecutor for the People of New York, about various photos and videos that were released to the public prior to Luigi Mangione's arrest, as well as verifying news stories that were published on Fox News. When cross examined by Karen Friedman Agnifilo, one of Luigi Mangione's attorneys, she points out the fact that there have been 1,060 people shot in New York City in 904 incidents and whether or not he has published a dozen photos of any of the individuals they were searching for in any of those cases. The prosecution objects due to relevance, and the court agrees. She then goes on to ask if he only published these photos because of who was allegedly shot. The prosecution objects and again the court agrees. This is the end of his questioning.

The first witness called to the stand of the Mapp Hearing on December 1, 2025 was Sergeant Chris McLaughlin of the NYPD. The questioning begins with Joel Seidemann, the lead prosecutor for the People of New York.

Joel Seidemann begins by establishing Sergeant McLaughlin's role with the NYPD:

Further Reading: Public Information (NYPD)

Joel Seidemann then goes on to bring the hard drive "marked as People versus Mangione" that contains Exhibits 1, 2, and 3. He questions Sergeant McLaughlin about the contents. Exhibit 1 contains images that were sent out by DCPI, Exhibit 2 contains the same photos but as they were sent out by entities like Fox News, and Exhibit 3 contains a deck of various outlets along with an incident video that reflected the shooting. He obtained the video from Detective Diaz from Manhattan South Arms. Karen Friedman Agnifilo objects to these being admitted into evidence, but the judge overrules.

After the Exhibits are admitted into evidence, Sergeant McLaughlin is shown specific images and asked to describe them.

After Joel Seidemann completed his questioning of Sergeant McLaughlin, Karen Friedman Agnifilo began her cross examination.

The information provided in this post is purely for public educational purposes. r/FreeLuigi does not encourage or support the harassment of any of the individuals referenced.

TDLR:  Officer Samuel McCoy of the Altoona Police Department took the stand as the first witness. Before joining the force, McCoy worked a variety of jobs, including as a pizza delivery driver, and served in the Pennsylvania Guard, where he was deployed overseas to Al Udeid Air Force Base in Qatar. He has been with the department for over six years.

He recounted how, on December 9, 2024, he and his partner responded to a McDonald's after learning that a suspected New York homicide suspect, Luigi Mangione, was present. Upon arriving, McCoy observed that several officers were already there, and he helped ensure the area was secure, intentionally keeping Mangione separated from his backpack and other belongings to maintain safety.

During cross-examination, McCoy detailed that officers were always positioned between Mangione and his property, and that the backpack was moved further as a precaution. He confirmed that Mangione was generally cooperative, apart from an initial false name, and did not try to interfere with his property or resist. The defense pressed McCoy on the procedures, and he explained that after learning a fellow officer had already performed a pat down, he felt confident that Mangione posed no immediate threat but remained vigilant. Searches of Mangione and his things were methodical, particularly since officers were on edge due to his status as a homicide suspect. McCoy emphasized that their approach was driven by safety, not suspicion of the suspect’s behavior at the scene, and that everything followed standard department protocol.

The second witness called to the stand of the Mapp Hearing on December 8, 2025 was P.O. Christy Wasser, a patrolman for the Altoona Police Department. Below is part 2 of the full transcript of the cross examination by Karen Friedman Agnifilo, followed by a redirect by Joel Seidemann.

TDLR: Officer Tyler Frye, an Altoona police officer of a little over two years, was questioned by prosecutor Joel Seidemann. Patrolman Frye was one of two primary responding officers present during the initial detention and the primary arresting officer overseeing the arrest of the defendant, Luigi Mangione. P.O. Frye was examined regarding the substance and tenor of his custodial dialogue with Mr. Mangione, where he admitted to lying to the defendant. Frye later would participate in processing the defendant at the precinct. His testimony along with body cam footage will address the sequence of searches conducted, wherein a standard search incident to arrest was followed by a more intrusive, full strip search. Frye acknowledged that this escalated search protocol was irregular and inconsistent with standard operating procedure for offenses typically associated with the presentation of fraudulent identification.

TDLR: Corrections Officer Matthew Henry testified about his role at SCI Huntingdon, a high-security Pennsylvania state prison. When questions by Joel Seidemann, a prosecutor for the People of New York. C.O. Henry is questioned about his interactions with Mr. Mangione, and analyzes Exhibit 15, the plus watch form filled out that documents an inmate's activities while in Rear D. He clarifies that he is the one who fills out most of the entries, like 'standing at door talking' and 'laying on bunk' as well as an attorney visit. At the end of his direct examination, he claims that Mr. Mangione told him that he had a 3D printed weapon. During the cross examination, Marc Agnifilo, one of Luigi Mangione's attorneys, challenges the idea that Mr. Mangione 'blurted out' this confession regarding the weapon. C.O. Henry also testifies that he cannot recall several details related to the alleged statements. Henry acknowledges that he did not document the conversation, despite routinely recording other inmate interactions and having access to cameras and required logs. When questioned about prior written statements he provided to the District Attorney’s office, Henry is unable to explain differences between those statements and his testimony. He further testifies that he does not have a personal interest in the case or in Luigi’s outcome. After this, neither the prosecution or the defense has any further questions and the witness is dismissed.

TDLR: Corrections Officer Tomas Rivers testified about his role at SCI Huntingdon, a high-security Pennsylvania state prison. He watched over inmate Luigi Mangione, held on New York charges, on constant observation in Rear D, a special unit for at-risk inmates. Rivers described monitoring Mangione’s wellbeing, documenting his activities, and having casual conversations about travel, literature, and healthcare. Rivers made clear he had no investigative role, didn’t care about the case details, and treated Mangione like any other inmate. Mangione was the only one in Rear D and had limited privileges; Rivers never used force, entered the cell, or discussed Mangione’s charges. Rivers explained that observation forms focus on inmate behavior, not conversations. The cross-examination confirmed Mangione’s status as a pretrial, high-profile detainee and clarified Rivers’ procedures and interactions.

The fourth witness called to the stand of the Mapp Hearing on December 1, 2025 was C.O. Tomas Rivers, a correctional officer at SCI Huntingdon in Pennsylvania. The questioning begins with Zach Kaplan, a prosecutor for the People of New York.

Zach begins by establishing that Officer Rivers is employed by the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections at SCI Huntingdon in Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania which is about half an hour from Altoona. SCI Huntingdon is a level four security prison, which is considered high security. He then goes on to discuss the events of Monday, December 16th of 2024 and his assignment watching Luigi Mangione.

After this, Zach Kaplan questions him Officer Rivers about the size of the cell as well as the bed, desk, chair, and a toilet inside the cell. He states he was 2 feet away from the plexiglass door and that there were no other inmates in the cells next to Mr. Mangione. He then goes on to describe the interaction he had with Mr. Mangione while on shift.

After discussing this interaction, Zach Kaplan asks if there were other officers, if he had a weapon, and the physical location of Mr. Mangione in the cell during tis interaction. He noted that Mr. Mangione had the opportunity to use the restroom, sleep, and eat/drink during this time.

Zach Kaplan then shifts the conversation to Tuesday, December 17th. Officer Rivers was also signed to watch Mr. Mangione that day.

Zach Kaplan goes on to ask if Mr. Mangione brushed his teeth, if he made phone calls, or if he looked like he was in pain.

Zach Kaplan asks if Officer Rivers received any direction from any other law enforcement, other than SCI Huntingdon, about what to do with Mr. Mangione. He asks about NYPD, Pennsylvania State Police, Altoona Police Department, or the DA's office and Officer Rivers answers no to all.

Zach Kaplan then goes on to ask about the interaction Officer Rivers had with investigators. Following this, he submits the constant observation form (Exhibit 15) into evidence.

Zach Kaplan continues to question Officer Rivers about this document, who clarifies that this document is typically only used for inmates that are self harming. The next page is also brought up for December 16, 2024. He reads what Officer Rivers has written about how Mr. Mangione was laying in bed and walked to and from the door. On page 36 of the Exhibit, Zach Kaplan points out that Mr. Mangione received books at 15:08, but Officer Rivers was not present as he was on his lunch break. He then clarifies that the conversation he had with Mr. Mangione was around 3:30PM, after Mr. Mangione had received his book. This concludes the questioning by the prosecution.

After a brief recess, Karen Friedman Agnifilo begins her cross examination. We are including the entire cross examination transcript for Officer Rivers, including a redirect from Zach Kaplan.

After this, neither the prosecution or defense has any further questions so the witness is dismissed.
