A man being questioned in connection with the fatal shooting nearly a week ago of UnitedHealthcare’s CEO in New York City was found Monday in Pennsylvania with a gun with a suppressor like the one used in the homicide, law enforcement officials briefed on the situation tell CNN.
I dunno, if he really was the guy, wouldn't the police have shot him dead?
Maybe the Pennsylvania police wouldn't have as much motivation to off him as the NYPD, but still... if he's really the guy, the government now risks a good-looking dude most people like to be interviewed on why he did it. Not to mention a drawn out court case. They're risking nationwide radicalization, even if this guy really is a cringe Elon fan. Yes, even if this guy isn't a leftist and hasn't changed in the last few months, he could still be a "healthcare pls" kinda fella.
Or... and I'm absolutely getting into conspiracy theories here... some libertarian saw this shit on the news, somehow had access to private investigation info like the exact fake ID card used (Maybe he knows some cops? Maybe anonymous is leaking info?), and already owned a similar enough gun. He thought, "Yeah, this sounds like a money making opportunity, and since I didn't do it they'll ultimately find me innocent anyway", and travels to a different area full of health insurance vampires. I can't imagine the amount of donations, fame, and maybe even book and movie deals this kind of folk hero could get in the future.
