This story is getting more coverage than UnitedHealth ever provided

[sugarcane]

Workers at MCdonalds can't get my order right but they can identify suspect?? GTFOH

[tracyelsinger]

So let me get this straight, this dude went to all the work of getting a 3D printed gun, a suppressor, multiple passports, and a pretty good escape plan, and then gets himself arrested at McDonald's with tons of incriminating to evidence on him? Something doesn't add up.

[htabbas]

Why arrest Luigi? He poses absolutely no threat to the American people.

[slightly]

I still wonder why United Healthcare isn't being investigated for negligence. There is something seriously wrong with our medical insurance companies and it starts with GREED!

[KeefCounty]

Ain’t no way bro risked his freedom over a 10 piece McNugget. Something ain’t right.

[thevinnyd]

You’re telling me the guy who was smart enough to get out of NYC off camera, kept all of his evidence on him 🤨

[CheeseWithMold]

I was golfing with that dude at 6am on December 4th. There's no shot he did it

[Goodpatron]

So they're name dropping this dude on national television without knowing if he actually did it?? That's a way to ruin someone's life who might be innocent. 🤦

[imthebadguy]

Remember these words when you get called for jury duty: "I haven't formed an opinion about this case."

[rustung]

This doesnt seem like a cover up to me.

The real question we should be asking is... how come so much effort went into finding him? They only cared so much cause he killed someone "important" (rich)

If it was you, they'd never put in so much effort.

Edit: To those who are replying, it is specifically the media I am talking about. Not the police. I have mild face blindness, and i could easily have called in the tip myself if I'd seen him or picked him out of a lineup.

Usually this sort of coverage is for celebrities or serial murderers or something particularly atrocious involving children.

I would never have said the same of Epstein or Casey Anthony or even something as dumb as Amber Heard. I would not have been able to point out any of them, but this guy has been all over all my media so much I could do so in a heart beat.

[madayavalos]

Leave him alone, united and the system has killed more people than he ever could while gaining billions from it too

[patrickhackett]

That was quick. Maybe they could find my stolen truck.

[alymayz]

"He was cooperating, he's not now." Weird way to say he was smart enough to ask for a lawyer.

[ltsmum]

The real assassin would not carry any of that evidence on their person that long after the kill.

[lilbasegod]

They found a "handwritten note" of him complaining about United Healthcare?🤔 nah bruh 😂

[ytmBHyUkUq]

The most screwed up part about this is that one murders by illegal means, and the other murders through corporate legal means. When you're denied healthcare, and it leads to a possible death, that's basically murder right there, except they can get away with it. This is the world we live in. I'm not saying that we should take things into our own hands, but what I am saying is that there are people who WILL take matters into their own hands.

[zoeyrochellezhombie]

Do they CARE they got the wrong guy or is it a case of 'we need to arrest SOMEONE.

[outlawbillionairez]

What are we supposed to do now? We've got a dozen more CEOs on our list.

[geraldross]

And how many people has the health care CEO killed by delay, deny, defend?
