Summary
The NYPD released unmasked photos of the suspect in the targeted killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, who was shot outside the New York Hilton Midtown on Dec. 4.
Surveillance footage traced the suspect’s movements before and after the crime, including his escape on an e-bike.
Investigators uncovered cryptic words on shell casings at the scene and recovered items possibly containing DNA evidence.
Authorities are using facial recognition and offering a $10,000 reward for tips. NYC Mayor Eric Adams confirmed the attack was premeditated and involved a silencer. Motive remains unknown.
If you saw this guy, you did not see this guy
I think his body just kinda did that and he pooped out the casings when it happened
I kinda get that vibe from the police too. Just $10,000? Don’t try too hard there, now.
I was denied emergency life saving medication by my insurance (not united iir) and ended up in the hospital the next day for a week. Billed an average $15,000 a day each day.
After the bills came in, it was apparent someone/algorithm put me in the hospital to bill the most money for profit. It was a nasty trick.
Anyways, $10,000 seems like chump change to them. More of a “well, we tried” bounty.
I know someone who lost their dad to medical issues. Their dad’s insurance is asking them for $200k
When my eye condition was rapidly degenerating, insurance denied me the only procedure that could slow it down. Now my eyesight is absolute trash and the only reason I can even see is because I use $1000/lens glass lenses the size of a nickel
The deductible for my sympathy hasn’t been met
Health insurance denials and other insurance BS transcend through the entire 99%, even cops.
Cops don’t give a fuck.
It is the easiest go to these days (don’t worry, we’ll have even worse sooner than later) but look at Uvalde. Cops actively prevented parents from rescuing their children. Cops physically restrained a different cop who was trying to rescue his wife (she was murdered and he later resigned). They don’t even operate in their own self interest.
So you can bet that the cop who Failure Drills the restrained suspect because “he’s a professional hitman who won’t be taken alive” will have denied claims and be desperate for any way to get life saving procedures done.
If anyone has information that could lead the the arrest of this suspect, then I have $10,001 that says no, they don’t.
If they unfortunately find him, jury selection is gonna be super interesting. I would let that guy go with a handshake and a good job.
Someone please Photoshop a batman mask on him
I have never seen this person in my life, or anyone who looks similar.
Sorry, can’t help.
As the NYPD scrambled to find the killer, police deployed a swathe of investigators – uniformed and plain clothed – dogs, drones and helicopters in the hunt for the assailant, according to The Times.
In 2023 there were 391 murders in NYC. For the police to deploy that amount of resources for this one murder kinda proves that the police work for the rich.
i suspect that the intense response from the authorities proves how much of a priority this is for our gov’t and i hope that this becomes a trend on the rich.
Commit murder in NYC and I suspect the NYPD to be just as active especially when there’s video.
hundreds of people are killed every year in that city and none get this kind of attentions or response; even when they’re on camera being killed slowly while everyone watches (eg eric garner).
Remember when NYPD watched a guy attacking people on the subway with a knife?
Big ol’ (X).
Imagine hearing about something like this every few days instead of school shootings? Man…
Supposedly the shell casings have words engraved on them. Deny Defend Depose.
So random, those words could mean anything! Clearly we will never know the motive!
They’re going to be pretty keen to find and make an example out of a person that did something bad to someone of worth. Can’t let that stand unanswered, or Adams will lose donors.
This isn’t just a murder, it’s potentially a statement about how the people who seem to be untouchable in the current social order are very very touchable. If that statement stands, it endangers the social order itself.
Propaganda of the deed (or propaganda by the deed, from the French propagande par le fait) is specific political direct action meant to be exemplary to others and serve as a catalyst for revolution.
It is primarily associated with acts of violence perpetrated by proponents of insurrectionary anarchism in the late 19th and early 20th century, including bombings and assassinations aimed at the state, the ruling class in a spirit of anti-capitalism, and church arsons targeting religious groups, even though propaganda of the deed also had non-violent applications. These acts of terrorism were intended to ignite a “spirit of revolt” by demonstrating the state, the middle and upper classes, and religious organizations were not omnipotent as well as to provoke the State to become escalatingly repressive in its response.
That man and/or woman was with me all day Tuesday and Wednesday.
