I'm not closely following the investigation of the killing of the CEO of UnitedHealthcare…but it does look like there's a lot more investigation of that case than there would be if you or I or some non-wealthy loved one of ours was to be ambushed and murdered. There's apparently even a big cash reward for info that will lead to the gunman and I don't think they do that with most murders…do they?
I gather some people are hoping it will turn out that the killer did it in revenge. The storyline would be that UnitedHealthcare turned down someone who died because the insurance firm refused coverage or compensation or made some other money-saving decision that led to that person's death. And it may turn out that was the motive but then you'd figure maybe the shooter would make that known; not the specifics but that he views it as a life for a life and wants to put the insurance industry on notice.
And I wonder if, as part of their manhunt, the investigators are looking at recent cases where someone was denied coverage by UnitedHealthcare and then died. Just wondering.
