Apparently, with evidence the assassin of UnitedHealthcare CEO successfully left the New York metropolitan area, the manhunt is expanding nationwide; in comes the FBI.
Will enhanced facial recognition soon become the celebrated tool that tracks him?
New York – […] Police have learned that the suspect took a taxi to the Port Authority bus facility at 178th Street and boarded a bus out of New York City following the shooting, according to police.
The bus the suspect is believed to have boarded out of the city made six or seven stops, and investigators have followed leads in multiple states, the sources said.
[…] The FBI is now assisting in a nationwide manhunt for the suspect, according to law enforcement sources, and the unidentified man remains at large in the wake of Wednesday’s attack, which was described by police as “brazen, targeted” and “premeditated.”
Police still do not have a name of the suspect, the sources said. (read more)

QUESTION: Why have you not commented on the killing of Thompson in NYC?
DD
ANSWER: I don’t know what you want me to say. I think this was inevitable, as insurance companies are the #1 consumer fraud rip-off of Americans every day of their existence, and they grease the palms of politicians to be exempt from consumer fraud. I have NEVER had any insurance company EVER honor what they pretend. I was self-insured here for the storm. A guy a couple of doors from me was paying $40,000 yearly for insurance, and they denied all his claims. He will no longer buy insurance. One of my staff had her car parked, and a drunk guy slammed into it, totaling the parked car. Her insurance company said he had to be paid by the other one, over a year and no payment. My mother’s house had a pipe freeze. They sent investigators asking neighbors if she was there because she went to stay at my sister’s. They have a clause that if you are not there, they will not pay. That cost me $50,000 to fix her home. In a storm, the top of the tree broke and lunged into a brand new Porsche, maybe 2 weeks old. I sent it to the Porsche dealer, who sent it to Bordentown Autobody, which burned down with my car inside. Allstate said it was two deductibles.
They charge your car insurance on the value you pay for brand new. Put in a claim, and it is suddenly depreciated, yet they continue to charge you on the original price. They NEVER reduce your car insurance in proportion to the depreciation. That is consumer fraud, and our politicians do NOTHING!
Insurance companies kill people all the time. This was inevitable. The shell casings found at the scene where the UnitedHealthcare CEO was shot dead by a masked gunman in front of a busy New York City hotel had “deny,” “defend” and “depose” written on them. This was retribution. It is a shame that it will not change the culture of insurance, and the police and politicians will love to hunt down this guy and kill him in a blaze of glory. Nobody will ever look at the corruption that sent this guy over the edge. I am very concerned that we may see others start to do the same, for those in the insurance industry will always worship the penny over the lives they pretend to care about. Our politicians line their pockets at the expense of We the People.

I find it very interesting amid all of our current discussions unattached to the events in New York City, that ‘facial recognition technology‘ appears to be the investigative emphasis to find the gunman who killed UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson on December 4th.
From the latest information, the assassin arrived in New York City on November 24, traveling from Atlanta, Georgia, to New York City by bus. Ten days later the unknown gunman executed his mission. New York police have some evidence from the trail of the gunman as they track his travel into and then out of the area. {Developments Here}
The evidence includes CCTV security images of the gunman checking in to a hostel, using a fake New Jersey ID, paying cash. The police also located a water bottle purchased from a local Starbucks and a cell phone retrieved from the area where the gunman fled. If the assassin was a professional, the physical evidence could be purposeful, meaning dropped intentionally.
With this much time to distance himself from the area, it will be challenging for investigators to locate him, even if they are able to come up with a solid identification. And with that background, again we go into the world of ‘facial recognition software’ as a tool to identify a bad guy. Strange coincidence. Hmmm?
NEW YORK – The unidentified man suspected of gunning down UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson outside a Midtown Manhattan hotel remains at large after Wednesday’s attack, which was described by police as “brazen, targeted” and “premeditated.”
The killer entered New York City by bus on Nov. 24, when a surveillance camera at Port Authority Bus Terminal caught his arrival at 9 p.m., law enforcement sources told ABC News.
The inbound bus originated in Atlanta but it was not immediately clear where the suspected boarded. Sources told ABC News he was spotted on board in Washington, D.C.
Police are investigating whether the suspect left New York City by bus on Wednesday after the murder. The 10-day period he was in New York City before the shooting is the focus of investigative efforts.
Police have collected video of the suspect all over the city, including in the subway, in cabs and in a McDonald’s, sources told ABC News. In each place, he paid with cash and he made sure to keep his mask on, which indicates to detectives he knew he was coming to New York City to commit the murder, sources said.
Police were able to find a surveillance image of the suspect without his face mask on because he was flirting with the woman who checked him into a hostel on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, police sources said.
As he stood at the check-in desk, the sources said the woman asked to see his smile. The shooter obliged, pulling down his mask long enough for the surveillance camera to capture his face.
Police have determined the suspect checked into the hostel using a New Jersey license that wasn’t his own, police sources told ABC News.
The masked gunman shot Thompson at point-blank range at 6:44 a.m. Wednesday outside the New York Hilton Midtown, where Thompson was heading for his company’s investors conference.
“The shooter then walks toward the victim and continues to shoot,” NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny said. “It appears that the gun malfunctions, as he clears the jam and begins to fire again.”
Written on the shell casings were the words “deny,” “defend” and “depose,” according to police sources.
[…] Investigators believe they were able to score DNA samples from several pieces of evidence discovered at or near the crime scene, law enforcement sources told ABC News. The samples are currently at the NYC Office of the Chief Medical Examiner to be run through databases for a possible match — a process that could take several days, the sources said.
Police were also able to extract a fingerprint off a water bottle the suspect bought at a Starbucks, but the print is smudged so it’s not clear how helpful it will be, sources said.
The suspect fled on foot and then fled north on a bike and rode into Central Park, police said.
A person appearing to be the suspect was seen just before 7 a.m. on the Upper West Side, riding a bicycle away from Central Park. He has not been spotted since. (more)

The jurors in the trial of Daniel Penny have been in deliberations since Tuesday. Today the jury informed the judge they are deadlocked and unable to come to a verdict.
The 12-person jury sent a note Friday morning saying they are having trouble reaching a consensus on whether to convict Penny, 26, of “recklessly” causing Neely’s death by placing him in a six-minute chokehold back in May 2023. If the jury continues to be unable to reach a verdict, Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Maxwell Wiley would be required to give them what’s known as an “Allen” charge, urging them to reach a unanimous verdict.
NEW YORK – Jurors are deadlocked in the case of marine veteran Daniel Penny, 24, who pled not guilty to manslaughter charges brought on after he held street performer Jordan Neely in a fatal chokehold on a New York City subway train last year.
Jurors began deliberations on Tuesday in the trial of a military veteran accused of causing the death of a man with a chokehold on a New York subway, and ended with uncertainty this morning as the jury failed to come to a decision.
The judge emphasized the jurors’ duty to reach a verdict, stating that “deliberations were not intended to be easy,” but they should “harmonize” their views and make a decision.
“It would be a crazy result to have a hung jury because they can’t move onto the second count,” prosecutor Dafna Yoran was overheard telling the judge. Judge Wiley is now contemplating whether to issue an Allen charge to encourage a unanimous decision.
An Allen charge is a court order given to a deadlocked jury to motivate them to reach a unanimous verdict. A deadlocked jury may also lead to a retrial of the case. It can also lead to a hung jury, causing a retrial or a mistrial. A hung jury is unable to reach a verdict by the required voting margin and will often result in a retrial. In some cases, the judge may instruct the jury to continue deliberation, but this is not a common practice. (read more)
Penny’s lawyers have said the Marine veteran and aspiring architect was justified in protecting passengers from a man who witnesses said yelled, “Someone’s going to die today!” and said he was ready to go to jail after boarding the uptown F train. But Manhattan prosecutors have stressed that no witness testified that Neely threatened anyone specifically, touched anyone, or brandished a weapon.
This trial has the potential to change the way people respond to crisis events and threats of danger.
I hope, for a myriad of reasons, Mr Penny is able to walk out of the courtroom a free man.
