During Thursday night’s edition of the Comedy Central talk show, guest host Chieng, 39, addressed “the story that everyone is talking about.” “A manhunt continues for a man accused of carrying out a targeted hit on a health insurance CEO, and investigators have been finding clues in surprising places,” he said, going on to show a compilation of different news segments discussing the words “deny, defend and depose” carved into the bullets used to kill Thompson. Ronny Chieng joked about the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson on ‘The Daily Show’ “Honestly, I think all bullets should probably say stuff on them.

He was gunned down at point-blank range Wednesday morning outside the New York Hilton Midtown on 6th Avenue in what police are calling a “targeted attack.” Authorities have yet to release a name or a clear picture of the suspect’s face; however, images from surveillance footage show the suspect to be a man wearing all black, with a black face mask, black and white sneakers and carrying a gray backpack.
