From some of the other comments above, it looks like he had broken all contact with his family. Maybe he had UHC insurance and experienced coverage issues. Most likely some mental breakdown though.

Yeah no way this goes to trial unless he pleads insanity and even then very good chance of a plea.

Crime is on video, footage of him at Starbucks, and they found the gun and the fake idea he used to check into the NYC hostel PLUS a 3-page "manifesto" that will show motive, on him in Altoona.

He's cooked.

He has had half the nation stroking his ego for a week. He is going to milk this for what it’s worth even if it means the death penalty.

Why would him being rich change anyone’s opinion about the CEO and United Healthcare’s business practices?

I think the prosecuters are going to have their work cut out for them. We’ll see if the jury is willing to convict on a fake ID and manifesto. Unless he acts as his own lawyer, then it will be easy.

A ghost gun is just a gun that isn't manufactured by a major gun manufacturer. They often don't have serial numbers. Like most other guns, they are designed to fire a specific caliber of ammunition. You don't need a specific brand or variety.

I don't know why you think this is a bad case. Presumably the gun he had on him can be linked ballistically to the bullets/casings recovered from the scene.

With his eyebrows the Zorro mask is the only option.

I don’t know maybe it’s when you’ve been living large off of corporatized assisted living facilities your whole life you’d at least look closer to home (or maybe relinquish your riches) before murdering a stranger.

But I’m asking how that’s possible? Are you saying that they would have known it was a ghost gun? A lot of ballistic experts on DCUM and not one person mentioned it.

I think it *might* be a bad case because I served on a jury with a complicated timeline. The above needs to be answered/proved.

They probably didn’t recognize him. Imagine seeing someone looking just like one of your friends on one of these pics. Your first thought would be denial.

I get the distinct feeling that his life likely unraveled this year. Lots of tagged photos of him in 2019-2023 period traveling to cool places with friends and family. He was living in Hawaii last year, working remotely and surfing; he seemed to have a good community of fellow remote workers.

I bet he lost his job and his life went sideways.

Zero resilience

Family first, remember? That’s what Joe taught us.

You think that only Joe taught us? Nearly everyone of Trump's kids/in laws have worked for him, including on the taxpayers' dollars. Hunter never worked for the USG nor for the party.

So spare us the faux outrage that someone didn’t immediately turn their kid in. That’s just not done anymore.

You mean how Brian Laundrie’s parents didn’t turn him in, or cooperate? You mean that’s the standard now?

This family absolutely had to have seen the photos in the news. They are loaded. They can get him an excellent attorney but should have called the police, especially with the knowledge that he may have had some sort of mental break and there was no telling whether he’d do something else. Seriously.

^^ how could a ghost gun “be consistent” is my question.

Probably, but that also means they don't need to offer him anything. Posters here may have fanciful ideas about jury nullification, but there's no way a jury doesn't convict on first degree murder here.

Yeah?

If I’m on that jury, I’ll hold out until it hangs. I don’t care what they say, I just won’t convict. Period.

Now, there’s plenty of people out there like me.

How do you know that they didn’t? He was estranged from his family. That doesn’t mean they didn’t contact police.
