Insurance Co CEO Shot Dead in the Street

I assume that the perp had a change of clothes in the bag.

Maybe just a top… it’s pretty cold in NYC today I don’t think he could fit much weather appropriate gear in there

Lighting issues with the pics. I mean, did he also have a differently colored bag?

Yeah, are any republicans/NRA-ers sending thoughts and prayers today?

At least he was using the one entrance into the building that can also serve as the one exit. Very surprised that didn’t result in more safety.

Or maybe the nra will get more support from the left… >.>

This is wild as hell. It’s a thing you always imagine, and half expect, but not a thing that happens in real life.

I can imagine it happens a lot, in the movies.

  • Michael Corleone: Where does it say that you can’t kill a CEO?
  • Tom Hagen: Come on, Mikey…
  • Michael Corleone: Tom, wait a minute. I’m talking about a CEO that’s mixed up in drugs. I’m talking about a - a - a dishonest CEO - a crooked CEO who got mixed up in the rackets and got what was coming to him. That’s a terrific story. And we have newspaper people on the payroll, don’t we, Tom?
  • [Tom nods]
  • Michael Corleone: And they might like a story like that.
  • Tom Hagen: They might, they just might.
  • Michael Corleone: [to Sonny] It’s not personal, Sonny. It’s strictly business.

Agreed. But its probably connected to this:

I’m going to shocked if isn’t one of disgruntled current or former employee or policy holder who was directly or indirectly denied coverage such as family member.

Anyone else getting John Q vibes from this?

My bet is on employee. Regular people just aren’t that knowledgeable about investor conferences.

My wife just floated an interesting assumption (she was a corporate lawyer in litigation)

Could also be a group of people (who lost something - financial or person) who banded together to plan this out.

The Medica CEO is next?

He should have gotten security as the first thing this morning as well as a lot of the others on that list.

Maybe they have lots of bogus claims!? It’s like using acceptance rates to college, maybe your college just gets loads of bad applications

Based on those averages, I didn’t think Kaiser was THAT big.

To be honest it seems like an explanation of what happened but as you point out there may be a valid explanation why that high claims denial rate is appropriate for the company’s experience.

I generally am suspect of the client facing side of organisations lead by accountants trained in audit firms. Those companies suck your soul out.

Oh completely agree at the speculation that someone pissed off about medical insurance related issues murdered the guy, but half the fun of the GoA is to nitpick

It’s really closer to 60%, I think.
