Assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson
UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was gunned down outside a hotel in a targeted attack, possibly related to the health insurance industry. The killer left behind messages on bullets referencing 'deny,' 'depose,' and 'defend,' similar to a book criticizing insurance companies. The CEO was a respected figure facing threats, and the suspect, seen as a skilled gunman, fled on an e-bike after the shooting.
