He pleaded guilty federal stalking charges and admitted to killing UnitedHeatlhcare CEO Brian Thompson in Midtown.
His lawyers have turned around and asked a state judge to throw out state murder charges. They claim it's double jeopardy.
Plus, New York City's Health Commissioner Dr. Alister Martin also joins the show.
We have a lot to talk to him about: the lessons we learned from the Upper East Side's Legionnaires' outbreak, the first confirmed case of West Nile Virus, and the risk from the drop in vaccination rates among children coupled with President Trump's push to ease vaccination requirements.
Up Close with Liz Cho airs Sundays at 11:00 a.m. on Channel 7, WABC-TV in New York City.
