Important details have recently emerged about the origin of the person accused of taking the life of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. This information came to light after the suspect made his way to New York City last month.

Local law enforcement reported that a masked individual targeted the 50-year-old CEO, firing multiple shots in the early hours, precisely at 6:46 a.m., before fleeing the scene. This tragic incident unfolded outside a hotel in Midtown on a Wednesday morning. Notably, the bullets used in this crime bore carvings of words such as “deny,” “depose,” and “defend.”

The engravings on the bullets bear a striking resemblance to a book from 2010 that critiqued the insurance sector, in which Thompson played a significant role. The book titled “Delay, Deny, Defend” discusses why insurance firms often refuse claims and offers guidance for those affected. Now, investigators are delving into possible connections between this manifesto and the motive behind Thompson’s murder.

The police gathered three unfired rounds along with three casings at the site outside the Hilton hotel on Sixth Avenue. Tragically, the CEO was meant to lead an important investors’ conference on that very morning.

According to sources, the words on the bullets could have been a deliberate message intended for Thompson himself. Deeper investigation suggests the gunman may have been a skilled shooter, utilizing a silencer and demonstrating professionalism during the attack. The suspect allegedly waited patiently for Thompson to appear before launching a close-range assault.

In a moment of tension, the gun jammed, but the suspect managed to rectify this before continuing the assault. After Thompson was critically injured, the gunman fled, making a swift getaway through an alley and utilizing an e-bike to careen into Central Park, effectively evading clearer channels of surveillance.

New York City police officials have uncovered evidence pointing to a pre-crime visit to a local Starbucks, where the suspect purchased a beverage and two power bars—a critical lapse that left behind significant forensic evidence.

The discarded coffee cup and water bottle were retrieved from a nearby refuse container and now serve as crucial pieces of the investigative puzzle. A cellphone found within proximity to the crime scene is undergoing forensic examination with a court-sanctioned search warrant.

Recent revelations indicate that the suspect’s journey to New York City originated from Atlanta, arriving via bus. He reportedly secured accommodations at the HI New York City Hostel using falsified identification.

Throughout his hostel stay, the perpetrator managed to conceal his identity by consistently wearing a mask, although he momentarily revealed his face during interactions with the hostel staff.

NYPD Chief of Detectives Joe Kenny conveyed that the current evidence strongly suggests Thompson was the intended target of this heinous act, emphasizing the deliberate nature of the attack, which does not align with a random crime.

The situation has prompted an exhaustive manhunt, with authorities offering a substantial reward of $10,000 for information leading to the apprehension of the suspect.
