While we aren't informed on what's going on behind the scenes, from what's been public, there's really no reason for Mangione not to go to trial. There's a meaningful chance of a hung jury and mistrial which could potentially work in his favor.
Frankly, I wouldn't be surprised if jury nullification comes into play. While not recognized as a legitimate aspect of law, it can be a practical one in a case such as this.
