UnitedHealth CEO shot

[efil4stnias]

The gunman who killed UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in a horror early morning shooting left behind a cryptic message at the scene, it has been revealed.

According to police sources, the three words “deny,” “depose,” and “defend” were carved into the live rounds and shell casings found outside the Hilton Hotel on Sixth Avenue in Midtown Manhattan, New York City, where Thompson, 50, was gunned down Wednesday morning.

Police sources confirmed the chilling message to ABC News and theNew York Post, adding that three live nine-millimeter rounds and three discharged nine-millimeter shell casings were recovered from the scene.


Several of the bullets were each inscribed with one of the three words, they added.

It is not clear what message the killer may have been trying to leave through the inscriptions, with the motive and the identity of the suspect still a mystery.

As of Thursday morning, no arrests have been made with the NYPD offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to the suspect.

Investigators are now honing in on the killer’s use of an e-bike to flee the scene, as well as a water bottle and cellphone he appears to have dropped as he fled.………

Seriously? they are not clear on the message???

I read it once and immediately arrived at..."Deny" ( the claim ) " Depose" ( the plaintiff- pre-trial ) "defend" ( tie up in court )

I will admit, Depose could mean the shooting was a way to remove him from office, but in the context of the other two, i think its pretty clear.

They are only offering $10,000 as a reward? In this economy?

Might as well enlist the help of Blues Clues.

Is this really the truth?
It's odd this information would be allowed to come out this early in the investigation.
Or maybe I'm just skeptical of the internet in general

i dont have any reason to think its false. What would be gained from faking that info?

I've seen the same information from other sources including those sources pointing out that it was odd for the police to release that information. I assume it must be part of some plan to identify/catch the guy but I don't know how that would work.

Inspiration/motive? Or staged to mislead?

What everybody seems to be missing is that it's a national story when a rich, white guy gets murdered in New York City.

People get murdered there every day. Just not rich ones.

Why do we care more when a rich one dies?

I have #humblebragged on here before about this, but recently had an experience here in Thailand last weekend that really drove home for me (again) how broken the American healthcare system is.. Last week i hurt my ribs when i took a bad fall while playing tennis with a young guy , yes it made me feel ancient .. after a few days of trying to tough it out, i had many people here, including a woman im seeing who is a registered nurse, cardiac & thoracic, telling me “you need go hospital”… the culture here is different; in the US, most people seem to put off going to the doctor as long as possible , whereas here people will go to the hospital for the seemingly most minor things.. so I went to one of the large hospitals here in Bangkok, the same one id gone to last year when i had what i thought was covid, just to rule out a fracture or something internal.. upon entering the ER, with no wait on a Sunday around lunchtime, i had a nurse taking my vitals and asking me questions in almost perfect English.. in another 5 minutes, i was meeting with a doctor, an Internist i believe but im not sure, it all happened so fast lol.. he sent me for X-rays and- good news- it was nothing serious, no fracture just a contusion (bruise).. he prescribed a painkiller and a muscle relaxer, and then i went to check out.. at the moment i have no employer health insurance policy, so i am self-insuring.. i wondered if the X-rays would push the cost of the visit up to something more expensive and familiar to me like what id experienced in hospitals back home in America.. i pulled out my credit card, and the cashier told me that my grand total for the ER visit, the consultation with the physician, the X-rays and the meds- came to 3600 baht.. or about $105 US dollars.. i gladly paid it, and it reminded me of one of the major reasons i decided to relocate out here .

All of this in a place that more resembled a Four Seasons than a medical facility

I had to have a pelvic ultrasound a few weeks ago. Since I had not yet met my deductible, it cost me about $1200 out of pocket. The total cost for the Ultrasound - $4700

This was just precautionary diagnostic. Not even an actual problem/condition/etc. imagine if I needed other things done or the ultrasound revealed a real problem. Even once I meet my deductible, I’m still on the hook for 20%. Imagine if I needed some kind of treatment in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Eff this place & it’s “healthcare”
