Comment on Do you want the murderer of the UnitHealthcare CEO prosecuted?
southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks agoI would say that depends on his resources. And I wouldn’t say that the entire country’s law enforcement is after him, at least not yet. As of when I’m writing this, I can’t find any mentions of anything beyond the NYPD being involved in the investigation.
Normally, you wouldn’t even see state level involvement in a local homicide investigation. It just isn’t useful. When that does occur, it tends to be because there’s a belief the suspect has left the original jurisdiction, or that evidence in other jurisdictions needs to be gathered.
That’s extra true for the feds.
Yeah, with this being some corporate fuck that’s the victim, if it goes on long enough, those outside agencies will at least “offer” resources, but it isn’t going to be happening this soon.
If the guy has resources of his own, particularly if he has somewhere far enough away to go and funds to stay off grid for a while, he could go decades without getting caught, if ever.
Of course, there’s still zero information about the guy that’s meaningful. He could be planning to turn himself in as a form of martyr, for all we know. Could have been his plan from the start.

the all country’s law enforcement was partially hyperbole, partially not. it already got a lot more manpower than average murder, the system has to protect itself here, because if this goes unpunished, other rich people might be next, and rich people are those who control the system. that is not a conspiracy, that is the way of life, as they say.
now this guy is clearly not a professional, so who is he? he is either someone with personal motive or someone really dedicated to making a social commentary.
if it is the former and he is someone whose close person died because of being denied coverage or something like that, that is a) the way to find him and b) it probably means he doesn’t have funds to go hide in his den indefinitely, because he would use such funds towards treatment of the person he is avenging.
if it is the latter, than who knows, but i personally think it is someone described in the last paragraph.
