Insurance company CEO assassinated in New York

[nogojones]

I doubt the new CEO will be any different. They'll just spend more of other people's money on close protection goons.

Copycats will have to invest in sniper rifles

 

[WouldBe]

He shot the shit out of someone in the street.

The bowels don't go that high.

 

[_Russ_]

I mean that is the first big clue. Whatever we may think of the guy he shoot it's not a normal thing to do.

What's so fucking great about normal?, wrong fucking forum matey

I hope the McSnitch gets the $50,000 reward, then gets hit with a $60,000 medical bill insurance refuses to cover

Bizarre reason why McDonald's worker might not receive $60,000 reward for identifying Luigi Mangione

Luigi Mangione was arrested at the fast-food restaurant in Pennsylvania after a tip-off from an employee

It's what Brian would have wanted.

 

[8ball]

I think he's almost certainly going to be some kind of maladjusted fuckwit.

He shot the shit out of someone in the street.

With a 3d-printed gun, I heard.

So painfully hipster..

I am unable to confirm this so take it with a pinch of salt until proved otherwise.

“To the Feds, I'll keep this short, because I do respect what you do for our country. To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn't working with anyone. This was fairly trivial: some elementary social engineering, basic CAD, a lot of patience. The spiral notebook, if present, has some straggling notes and To Do lists that illuminate the gist of it. My tech is pretty locked down because I work in engineering so probably not much info there. I do apologize for any strife of traumas but it had to be done. Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming. A reminder: the US has the #1 most expensive healthcare system in the world, yet we rank roughly #42 in life expectancy. United is the [indecipherable] largest company in the US by market cap, behind only Apple, Google, Walmart. It has grown and grown, but as our life expectancy? No the reality is, these [indecipherable] have simply gotten too powerful, and they continue to abuse our country for immense profit because the American public has allwed them to get away with it. Obviously the problem is more complex, but I do not have space, and frankly I do not pretend to be the most qualified person to lay out the full argument. But many have illuminated the corruption and greed (e.g.: Rosenthal, Moore), decades ago and the problems simply remain. It is not an issue of awareness at this point, but clearly power games at play. Evidently I am the first to face it with such brutal honesty.”

Seems fair enough.

800 dollars when they wrote the article, it's now up to 15 grand.

I think people hoping for some kind of folk hero may end up disappointed. I think there is a pretty good chance this guy is going to be a total nob.

Guess we will see.

Maybe he will be. But he was still right.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

It's 2nd degree murder in NY but that's not really a let off. Max sentence is still life without parole. That's what he gonna get.

What Crimes Was Luigi Mangione Charged With? What To Know

According this article, life without parole is only a sentencing option in second-degree murder cases if "while in the course of committing a specified crime such as rape, a criminal sexual act or sexual abuse, a defendant 18 years old or more intentionally causes the death of a person less than 14 years"

GoFundMe closed any fundraisers for him on there; wonder how much that would've been. But there must be loads of people trying to get money to him one way or another.

 

[brogdale]

I noticed that the BBC is choosing to describe Thompson as "a healthcare boss" rather than an Insurance CEO.

The following dialogue was overheard in a coffee shop not far from the Hilton on 6th Avenue, New York City, where the murder of UnitedHealthcare executive Brian Thompson took place. My booth was next to that of the speakers.

Did they "overhear it" with a bug and a recording device? You'd have to be a robot tape recorder to remember that much of someone else's conversation. I wouldn't remember that much of one of my own conversations.

 

[Flavour]

Well fuck it i still like him, his act of killing Thompson for me weighs heavily enough to more than balance out some of the weirdo shit he posted on Twitter over the years. He's a privileged 26 year old gone rogue. Need more of them.

Free Luigi!

Free Luigi!

I meant that as a somewhat ironic comment on how everyone thinks he's hot.

Is he genuinely hot then?

Would most women consider him to be physically attractive?
