Brian Thompson’s murder ‘linked’ to a 2010 book with anti-insurance sentiment?Cryptic message on bullets found
Hindustan TimesCEO of UnitedHealthcare, Brian Thompson, was fatally shot on Wednesday morning ahead of the company’s major investor meeting. Eerie message found on bullets in CEO Brian Thompson’s killing The masked suspect, seen carrying a “luxury” backpack often used by photographers, reportedly left behind shell casings inscribed with the words “deny,” “depose,” and “defend” at the crime scene outside the Hilton Hotel in Midtown Manhattan. Earlier, police shared surveillance images showing the suspect using a silencer on a firearm before targeting Thompson, the Minnesota-based CEO of the largest private health insurer in the U.S. ‘Meaning’ behind the cryptic message inscribed on bullets The motive behind the killer's inscriptions remains unclear, with both the intent and the suspect's identity still unknown as the investigation progresses. However, according to the POST’s finding, the three words inscribed on the shell casings strongly resemble the title of Jay Feinman’s 2010 book Delay, Deny, Defend: Why Insurance Companies Don’t Pay Claims and What You Can Do About It. “Today the name of the game is delay, deny, defend: to improve their profits, insurance companies delay payment of justified claims, deny payment altogether, and defend their actions by forcing claimants to enter litigation,” an excerpt from the book reads, which criticises the insurance industry, an area where Thompson served as a top leader.
