Luigi Mangione, the suspect in the ambush killing of UnitedHealthcare’s CEO, was not insured by the company, the overarching business that owns it said.

There is no record that Mangione, 26, was ever insured by the company, UnitedHealth Group said.

Mangione is the suspect in the fatal shooting of CEO Brian Thompson on a New York City street on the morning of Dec. 4, as Thompson was walking to a hotel where an investor conference was being held.

The killing remains under investigation.

New York Police Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny said Mangione’s social media and writings indicate he suffered a painful “life-altering injury" to his back.

Kenny said Mangione may have targeted Thompson because of the size of UnitedHealthcare.

“We have no indication that he was ever a client of United Healthcare, but he does make mention that it is the fifth-largest corporation in America, which would make it the largest health care organization in America,” Kenny said in an interview that aired Thursday.

“So that’s possibly why he targeted that company,” Kenny said.

Mangione was arrested Monday at an Altoona, Pennsylvania, McDonald’s after he was recognized from photos distributed by police, authorities said.

When he was arrested, police found a gun, a silencer, a handwritten document that refers to the health care industry and a notebook, officials have said.

Media and society wants this to be more on some John Q level. Its not. This shyt most likely had nothing to do with medical coverage or shady practices by UHC.

 

[levitate]

I don’t really know what they attempt to gain by noting this.

I'm tired of people trying to make this dude into some hero

Fry this CAC and move on

Dig your homeboy up, UHC

 

[King Poetic]

Media has nothing else to report

let me get this straight, UHC said that they checked UHC and he wasn't insured by UHC

and we're supposed to believe them?

 

[African Peasant]

So?

John Brown wasn't black either.

 

[Stir Fry]

shyt, all the better then. He put all these ceo's on notice that it wasn't personal and that anybody can get it.

He could have been insured by a different company, or he could have never been insured at all.

We should wait to see the evidence. fukk UHC and the US healthcare system, but I'm really hesitating to make this dude a hero.

what the hell do you guys even stand for

 

[newarkhiphop]

Did he claim to be?

 

[Theo Penn]

He obviously picked out UHC because they are the WORST when it comes to procedure and medication denials. What’s so hard to understand?

He could have been insured by a different company, or he could have never been insured at all.

What you just said is the equivalent of "the police are investigating themselves, it could have been a clean shot. let's wait on more evidence before saying all cops are bad"

negro please. I'll believe the crackhead across the street before I believe a multibillion dollar corporation on something like this. on top of that, even if he wasn't insured by them personally, that doesn't mean he can't kill the CEO of the worst insurance company in america for just that.

 

[Whips-n-Chains]

I think the killer just wanted to take his 'stand' against the industry as a whole, not necessary UHC. Had the BCBS CEO been there, it wouldn've been him instead.
