A man — a husband, a dad — is dead.
Brian Thompson, 50, CEO of UnitedHealthcare, was murdered outside his hotel in New York City, just before dawn Dec. 4, on a public sidewalk. The Thompson family held his funeral Monday, and while their mourning will continue, the nation that has become fixated on his death.
Video of the murder shows a hooded man shooting Thompson in the back. It has run countless times on television and on social media.
Suspect Luigi Mangione, 26, was arrested in Altoona, Penn., on Monday. It was the same day as Thompson’s funeral and six days after the shooting. Mangione was arrested with a 3D printed gun, a police criminal complaint said.
