The suspected killer of the United Healthcare CEO arrived by bus and now police believe he left New York City that way too.
A law enforcement source told our sister station, ABC7 Eyewitness News in New York, that the suspect's unmasked smile came as he flirted with the front desk clerk who checked him into the hostel, and encouraged him to drop the mask so she could see his smile. The suspect obliged, pulling his mask down long enough for the surveillance camera to capture his face.
Police protecting the wealthy isn't really anything new. If he had shot a filthy peasant instead of a bourgeois we likely wouldn't even know about this story at all.
On average, there's more than one gunshot homicide in NYC every day and I've barely heard of another one of them until now.
It's interesting how we are often told how law enforcements budgets aren't big enough for them to deal with issues like Medicare fraud, corporate collusion, and illegal claim denials. But when a CEO dies there are enough resources for a multi-state manhunt.
How about we spend all this money and time on the hundreds of other ongoing murder investigations. A CEO's family doesn't need this government handout. They get paid enough to take care of things privately.
Just one more example of the perversion and inequality of America, and how the rich continue to loot the country.
Waste of time and effort. We need to put our resources towards stopping big crime like stopping drug rings from eating dogs and illegal immigrants from taking our drugs, not catching some random one time killer. It's likely a crime of passion type thing since there was only one victim.
I honestly don't think I would genuinely snitch on this dude for $10M, let alone $10k. But for $10M I'd take it and make up a really good believable lie.
Anyone who takes COVID-19 seriously is a prime suspect 😷
Edit to add: I don’t know why people are downvoting a known fact: that the US police state is suspicious of anyone wearing a mask/respirator, which is why laws banning them keep expanding & spreading.
Not that the person you're replying to is or isn't sane, there have been a spat of laws recently making it illegal to wear a mask in some obviously dumb Republican areas.
Remember, those cops are getting their claims denied too. They have every reason to slow walk this…
The only people that I know of who aren’t dealing with this clusterfuck are the current and former congress critters, the military, and I believe federal employees / executive and judicial branches. Everyone else is getting fucked the same.
