Wasn't an NBA player in hot water because he was involved in a song "Stop Snitching"? Of course the king is white.
On line people are crazy cray "And pages on Google and Yelp for the McDonald's in Altoona, Pennsylvania - where Luigi Mangione was spotted - have since been flooded with negative reviews, calling workers "rats" and "snitches."" https://cnn.it/3ZwzsdC https://www.threads.net/@cnn/post/DDZyZ1HqOC-?xmt=AQGznOvO1VUo8jr6JtwjoDhTI6ns3TrT-PFaij1mcceLgw Pardoning this dude could be an idea for Trump to get more popular with the populist left and increase it with the populist right (he already has their support)
Maybe not, but if I was the assassin, I’d start prominently kissing his ass. With a narcissist of Trump’s magnitude it just might work.
Monday's arrest of 26-year-old Luigi Mangione, charged with the shocking killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, touched our small world of soccer. Baltimore's Mangiones are one of most distinguished soccer families in the country. Luigi's grandfather, Nick, a self-made multimillionaire and developer, headed a group of businessmen who were awarded the original NASL Diplomats franchise in 1974 (fee: $75,000). Two of Luigi's uncles, Nick and Sam, are members of the Loyola (Md.) Athletics Hall of Fame and played professionally. His cousins include Peter Mangione, who starred at Penn State and started 23 MLS Next Pro games this year for FC Cincinnati 2, and Gigi, a two-time MAAC Women's Tournament MVP at Loyola.
Didn't think there'd be much of a market for such a specific Altoona joke... but there it is. (The Curve is a part of the railroad west of town where the train has to bend quite a bit. Big attraction for train nerds. Also the name of the Pirates AA baseball team.
AARP's major lobbying activity is on healthcare. As such, they should be avoiding a conflict of interest by not co-marketing with any health insurance company, especially when that marketing provides them with three times the income of what they get from their members. As currently structured they absolutely rely to a large degree on that United Healthcare income. I'm all for AARP providing neutral advice on Medicare. What I think is problematic is being in bed to such a financial degree with a health insurance company when at the same time lobbying government on senior healthcare issues. This has nothing to do with my disliking a particular such company, although I do think that United Healthcare has correctly come under major scrutiny for denial of care in both its Medicare and non-Medicare products.
To be charged with first-degree murder [in NY], specific elements must be present in the case. These elements include the intentional killing of a law enforcement officer, correctional officer, or a witness to a crime for the purpose of preventing them from testifying. Additionally, murders committed during the commission of certain serious felonies, such as kidnapping or terrorism, can also result in first-degree murder charges. Second-degree murder is also a very serious charge and involves intentional killings without the specific aggravating factors required for first-degree murder. For instance, an intentional murder committed without the presence of any other felony or those not specifically listed in the first-degree murder statute may fall under second-degree murder. https://www.arthurpressmanlaw.com/exploring-the-different-degrees-of-murder-charges-in-new-york/
His mom lived around the corner from me in the LA suburbs. I remember seeing him out front with a snazzy car before I knew who he was.
Here is an interesting article from CNN on how the suspect meticulously and cleverly planned and executed the crime, and yet made some crucial mistakes out of carelessness. https://www.yahoo.com/news/suspected-unitedhealthcare-ceo-killer-planned-093144487.html The suspected UnitedHealthcare CEO killer planned his attack well – but made crucial mistakes, experts say
On the other hand, and just for fun...what if the mistakes...weren't? Maybe this was an elaborate self-referral https://static.prisonpolicy.org/scans/healthcare.pdf
There were all sorts of ways to find this guy but once his face was exposed, it was over. Going into an Altoona McDonald’s and people are going to notice right away the seriously good looking, tall and fit dude nibbling on a hash brown like it’s a tea biscuit. Even if they couldn’t place him with the crime he would raise suspicion.
