I would find it hilarious is the assassin remained at large because people refused to snitch.
Also remember, things are newsworthy because they're novel. US sees like 2 gun deaths per day and thousands due to insurance company malpractice, but this one death dominates newscycles.
Be sure to only submit one tip per phone number / IP address and take real numbers (Address, phone number, etc) then fudge them a little, it makes it much harder to filter out (my job used to be filtering tips like this). Area code needs to match tip area, for example.
Last I checked, the average rate of solved cases across the US was 50%. I wish I could only do my job half the time and get a huge salary, while remaining a safer job than a cab driver.
That's often why criminals remains at large. Somebody knows what happened in this case, but telling would probably implicate themselves, not to mention risk the guy's revenge.
In the other pictures with his face he was wearing a jacket with two prominent chest pockets. If I were going to change jackets I would definitely change the color.
As one user wrote on Bluesky, “The reward out for the person who shot United Healthcare’s CEO isn’t even enough to cover 1/9 of the bill we got for 28 days of radiation.”
Maybe one knows who "he" is, but maybe one also knows other people looking somewhat similar. tipping the police to the other person makes one someone "spent" they wouldnt look into one further, because they must assume one to have "their" best interest at heart.
Dude would be like Spider-Man when Toby is unconscious, carried by the train passengers, and reunited with his mask. No one said a damn thing to anyone, just carried him to safety and let him go on his way!
You just need the balls. It’s not a technically difficult feat if you plan well.
Most Americans are used to guns and many have served and be trained. I think I could do something like this and get away and I’ve never been around guns. If I was at a point where I wanted to do something like this then I would just plan meticulously. Anger can be a great motivator.
This is an I'm spartacus moment. Everybody in america should be doing their utmost to ensure the authorities have an overwhelming amount of information and leads to follow to ensure that the investigation eventually concludes with the result most in the interests of the people.
Just gotta dress like the dude. Any passerby might make the connection and report it, it will be a dead end. That, and city cameras will have a hard time picking out anything from the myriad of false positives.
It ain't false information for a passerby to report something they think is suspicious that isn't. It ain't false information to dress how you like.
There is no way I snitch if this guy's kid or mom were killed by this company's CEO greed and decisions, and no court or system would bring him justice. let them fix the system which kills people lives first
If I serve on his jury, I’ll for sure push for nullification.
Sure he broke a law, we can all acknowledge that.
But was he wrong? (Based on the overall reaction I’d argue society doesn’t think so, and that’s where laws come from) Or are the laws, allowing things to get to a place where this is understandable behavior, wrong?
Also have to wonder how many random unrelated and innocent men would have been summarily executed "killed in self defence by police" by now were the shooter Black.
curious the man didn't use a better disguise. Just shading eyebrows, changing skin tone, a cheap prosthetic nose, maybe some gauze inside the mouth to change face shape. Sometimes the old spy tricks are the best.
In 2023, the average number of people who died from gun violence in the United States each day was 118. This is based on the 43,163 people who died from gun-related injuries in 2023.
There are about 50,000 gun deaths in the US every year, same as vehicular deaths. About half the gun deaths are suicides. About none of the vehicle deaths are.
Setting aside how we feel about the deceased as well as the police, it's not much of a dunk to be like "I can't believe they're asking the public for information!" Assuming good cops and immoral criminals this is what we'd want the police to be doing.
