Alleged Shooter of United Healthcare CEO Claims to be a ‘Hero’
The suspect in the shooting of Brian Thompson, former CEO of United Healthcare, reportedly views himself as a ‘hero’ and has created a handwritten manifesto suggesting motives rooted in anger towards corporate corruption. Law enforcement expresses concerns that the 26-year-old may inspire copycat actions. Thompson was fatally shot in Manhattan, drawing global attention and sparking outrage on social media. Officials, including Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, condemned the act, emphasizing that violence for political statements is unacceptable.
