This is how I learn that Optum is a subsidiary. Even more apropos that this happened just before I took my wife to another chemo appointment at a facility that was recently bought by Optum … two and a half weeks late because insurance dragged its feet on authorization.
Homer Simpson: No you won’t.
Run, Forrest, RUN!
Unfortunately, I’ve worked with a lot of republicans in my lifetime. Hating overpaid CEOs and thinking insurance is a scam are 2 of the only things I’ve seen republicans and democrats agree on. Good fucking luck convicting him.
how about some totally true tips we saw him walk past nearby?
There he goes!
There he goes again!
Racing through my CCTV!
Limp dick regime goons aint got shit… and the long this goes, the more likely he will get away with it.
I hope all of these business “leadership” add this to their calculus when they fuck over paying customers to live large.
FAFO
Just need to keep calling in with bogus tips. Say we saw him across the country.
I seent him in Bogota! I swears it!
That guy is Spartacus!
The boot lickers licking some boot
If the FBI and the NYPD don’t have the footage they need within 1 week, their ability to catch the right guy will diminish, as CCTV feeds from across the country get overwritten. If the suspect can grow and keep facial hair it would probably be difficult to match against these images. They could request some from the bus centers in Atlanta, New York and every stop in between but there’s only so much footage they’ll be able to get their hands on, this person seems to know what they were doing and staying less identifiable in public.
Those facial features could absolutely also be a mask. They’re very exaggerated
Or even just artificial
In addition to looking for the killer, police are still searching for a motive as to why someone would kill Thompson.
This is definitely where they need to focus their resources first.
Honestly? Yea probably. It’d be fucking amazing if the police ended up releasing a report on just how much UHC fucked this guy or his family/friends over.
I’m convinced. This is a South Park episode.
I mean for all we know it has nothing to do with healthcare premiums. The guys could be a fellow board member who got boned out of a bonus or something.
The message on the bullets would suggest otherwise. To me that seems like an attempt to preempt speculation that the motive had nothing to do with insurance company fuckery.
Tbf, that’s the largest pool of potential suspects, so it makes sense that they’d want to call police attention in that direction regardless of the actual motive. I do think it’s genuine, but it’s a smart move either way
Could just as easily be a red herring.
I mean, most likely it isn’t internal insurance drama, but it could be.
Besides, how amazing would it be for the cops to say “yeah so we researched this and it was definitely a retaliation execution for all the lives he murdered in his quest for money and power”. Talk about putting the billionaire class on alert haha
It’s clear they haven’t even given it a first look. The guy put the title of the book on the bullet casings
Somebody looking to hide their motive would that too tho
Too bad they can’t read!
Yes. It is extremely bizarre how something like this could happen.
Especially since the president elect already said he could do the same thing one block over, four years ago
So many resources spent for one dead white guy. I dont imagine every murder gets this much attention and expensive work done on it.
The continued existence of police forces in the US depends on their role as protector of the wealthy. They know they must perform their duty or risk losing the protection of their patrons.
That’s actually 6 words.
I hope they fail
By all means do. I can’t wait to hear this man’s story.
And good luck getting a conviction. Jury Nullification go brrrrr

Yup, this is my concern. They’ll claim he resisted during their no-knock raid, and they had no choice but to execute him in his bed. And all of the body footage will be “accidentally” scrubbed, or every single officer “forgot” to turn their body cams on.
“The assassin didn’t resist” is going to be the new “Epstein didn’t kill himself.”
Wouldn’t that be something? If the people collectively decided, “Nah this is fine. This was reasonable.”
I doubt it but that would be beautiful.
Could even stop before it gets that far. It’ll be difficult to convene a jury with so many candidates dismissed for saying “nah, fuck health insurance CEOs”.
Imagine the gofundme campaign for this guys defense
I bet he’d be like “Nah, use it to pay for people’s health care.”
I bet he’d be like "Nah, use it to pay for
people’s health caremore assassins.”Imagine a crowdfunded CEO bounty program
That moment when the Healthcare CEOs realize that no jury will convict their murderers in a country with more guns than people.
I wouldn’t rely on nullification. I instead think this guy deserves a full pardon. We pardon domestic abuse victims who kill their abusers, is this situation really so different?
There’s no one part of the system we should rely on. What I say I do so with hope in the full knowledge that we’re likely to see the corruption re-assert itself.
Imagine what happens if they fail, and they can’t even produce a fall guy?
The thing is, Americans know their police force is lazy and useless. We’re all joking about all the murders that will go unsolved that have occurred since the CEO’s death. Now, there’s a real chance that their incompetence will be on full display. Is it really out of the question to think that they have become so impotent that someone could carefully plan and execute an assassination?
I expect they’ll find a fall guy if they can’t find the real killer. Can’t look incompetent when the nation’s watching!
