    UnitedHealthcare CEO fatally shot

    The CEO of UnitedHealth’s insurance division was gunned down Wednesday morning outside the Hilton hotel in Midtown in what police say was a targeted attack.

    Brian Thompson, 50, was at the hotel around 6:46 a.m., arriving early for a conference, when a masked man allegedly waiting for him fired at him repeatedly and fled eastbound off 6th Avenue, police sources told The Post.


    sounds like a customer was really pissed off.,

    Very suspicious. Guy used a suppressor on a 9 mm, I’d say a pro who got hired, they’ll never find the guy.
    Sometimes I wish I had a Harry Potter's wand and make people go up into smoke.

      Suppressor's are pretty commonplace these days. A pro would have shot from a distance with a suppressed rifle. Up close is more personal. If I was to want to wack some one with a suppressed pistol I'd use a .45 acp that is basically subsonic to begin with. While my B&T Station Six suppressed 9mm is a very quiet gun I'd still use a .45.

    I remember when they initially denied my sons AAC device.

    We expected the denial, pretty typical with first attempt especially due to the cost.

    The reason they gave is what set me off.

      I'm only surprised it doesn't happen more often, especially after the COVID bullshit.

        Mormon mob hit. Those damn friskie Mormons like to get in close speak in that like weird talk they do then start frigging blasting. Guy probably cheated them on a furniture deal they make and sell.

          It was a hit. He owed something to someone and had a price on his head. Happens all the time.

            Dude may have gone through some trouble to send a message. Not very bright when the assassination sends the message quite well, if the below is true.

              Not a whole lot of sympathy out there for the dude who got killed.

                  The CEO was being investigated for insider trading I saw on TV. Not that the guy was waxed over that; plenty of people nowadays hate the big insurance corporations with a passion.

                      Well they know he is White and with that on the shell casing it appears he did not do well in his judgment, case whatever against United Ins? United may have refused to pay on a claim or some damn thing?
                      Well he will soon be in the hard rock cafe but the next guy asks for money? No problema checks in the mail.

                        Maybe it was Danny DaVito?

                        Guy probably watched his poor sweet granny, mother, child or wife slowly die from cancer or some other disease because UH refused to pay for the absurd over priced drug or procedure and this guy got revenge. You see when you go around fucking people over one day you will cross that guy who does not like being fucked over and takes matters into his own hands. If more of this happened society would be much more civil.

                          I have health insurance with UHC, I had all sort of tests and scans done and heart bypass along with an Aortic valve replacement, one week in the hospital, one day in ICU, subsequent doctor’s visits and tests done. I haven’t paid a dime yet. Yes I pay a good piece of change every month but they got me covered 100%
