UnitedHealthcare CEO fatally shot
-
I think I have cracked the code using google maps.
Brian leaves valet parking (red circle), then walks to where he is shot.
Alternatively, since he probably isn't driving himself and getting parking, he stayed at the luxury hotel across the street. He leaves this hotel, crosses the road (where the suspect sees him, and then gets in position), then as he walks by....BOOM.
BUT! There is a twist. Look at these incriminating photos. Is this BRIAN!?!?!?1/1questionmark!? WITH THE SHOOTERS WIFE? AND WHATS IN THE GREEN DRINK!???!
These are in order of (google streetcar passing) sequence.
BTW... no shortage of cameras.
The yellow camera is what we see footage from:
Here is where the suspect crossed over to:

If I was a CEO of a big company, I'd be thinking 'bodyguards' at this point
-
'Defend,' 'deny' and 'depose'
Shell casings found at the scene where the UnitedHealthcare CEO was shot dead by a masked gunman in front of a busy New York hotel had the words “deny,” “defend” and “depose” written on them, a senior New York City law enforcement official briefed on the investigation confirmed to NBC News on Thursday.

To me the suspicion is he had some knowledge of his schedule. Beyond the mere fact of his meeting in NY and the location. But more detail than that.

I'd be willing to chalk that up to dumb luck. This sounds and appears both planned and a little stupid.
But this is speculation on the zaniest of levels, I obviously have no idea. Gonna be interesting, whatever they find out.

I'd disagree that it's Feinman, but considering he wrote a 2nd book "how to stalk and shoot someone with a silencer", I'd say he's certainly one of the suspects.

Did you see his Atlantic piece about how to rent a citibike without using a credit card?

(a aside, I did not realize that the parent company of United Health Care (where he is CEO) is the 4th largest company in the US by revenue!)

A call for violence?
Former Washington Post reporter Taylor Lorenz wrote several social media posts appearing to celebrate UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson’s murder while suggesting other executives should also be targeted.
Thompson was shot and killed at close range in midtown Manhattan Wednesday morning, outside the Hilton Hotel. The suspect remains at large.
"And people wonder why we want these executives dead," Lorenz wrote hours later, referencing Thompson’s death in a Bluesky post with a report about Blue Cross Blue Shield no longer covering anesthesia for the full length of some surgeries.
Lorenz also posted an image of Blue Cross Blue Shield CEO Kim Keck with a similar article on both Bluesky and X.
She reposted another user who wrote, "[H}ypothetically, would it be considered an actionable threat to start emailing other insurance CEOs a simple ‘you're next’? Completely unrelated to current events btw."
She later seemed to defend the harsh posts, claiming there’s "very justified hatred" against CEOs for the "amount of death and suffering" for which they allegedly bear responsibility.
"People have very justified hatred toward insurance company CEOs because these executives are responsible for an unfathomable amount of death and suffering. As someone against death and suffering, I think it’s good to call out this broken system and the ppl in power who enable it," Lorenz wrote.

Indeed.
That being said, from my sampleing of reddit and other comments, about 80% of them were "laughing at it saying, well... I'm surprised this doesn't happens more, this company screwed folks over"

Any attempt anywhere on the internet to question whether this should be cause for celebration, is sneered at on Reddit. Granted, this is the "leftist" sub, so they're never in a good mood.

I’ll withhold judgment until the shell casings get a chance to tell their side of the story.

Isn't that what they just did?
