- losing track of a perp in fucking Manhattan
- the other pic of the perp (with mask up) looks totally different, diff eyebrows, diff backpack, has coat hoodie up instead of sweater hoodie
- dude was just casually outside of McDs in broad daylight while on the run (not innawoods? not moving in the evening?)
- shooter is rich and his family owns a line of retirement homes
- Brian Thompson is a new start, was never CEO of anything before 2021 (father was a grain elevator worker)
- Brian Thompson is also excluded from the past Wikipedia pages of UnitedHealthCare, (apparently not important enough to mention?)
- The only consistent CEO on said pages is Andrew Witty (still CEO now, and was CEO from 2021 along with Brian)
- Andrew Witty also served as CEO of GlaxoSmithKline from 2008-2017, showing a decade of full experience
- Witty was management trainee when he was 19yo, was appointed president of GSK europe in 2003 (at 39 yo), and advised Prime Minister David Cameron 2010-2015. A very experienced fellow!
- UHC's profits were 17B in 2021 and 21B in 2022. Brian Thompson was getting a salary of only 10M per year from 2021-24. This seems like a pretty low profit:CEO wage ratio, but more analysis is necessary
- there was some embezzlement thing where Brian defrauded 17M, Steven Hemsley (executive chariman) defrauded 102M, and Witty defrauded a few million. Brian was set to testify soon. Hemsley took home almost all of the money.
- how did the shooter even know where to find Brian?
It also begs the question of why Brian specifically? Why not Witty too? Why not wait till the meeting was over and roblox a whole fucking cabal of CEOs?
if that's too risky, why did he pull his mask down to flirt with a woman mid-crime lol
he’s Italian
in that case why not wait to merk 10 other healthcare executives as they exit the building
I don't think Italians are still confined to their primitive 2000 year old numeral system
Because they wouldn't be on foot, presumably.
Because they would probably have some sort of security. I do find it weird that the CEO of a healthcare company who got deaththreats on the reg didn't have a bodyguard.
Might it be the case that the massively positive social media reception made him decide to take credit for it and try his luck with convincing one juror out of twelve to nullify?
edit: oops i replied to the wrong comment
He pulled down his mask to show the hostel employee his face when he first checked in. It was days before the shooting.
