The death of Brian Thompson, a UnitedHealth Group executive, has sparked intense public reaction regarding the US healthcare system. Criticism of the high cost of healthcare and insurers' practices, including claim denials, fueled by Thompson's LinkedIn post and subsequent online commentary, is widespread. Thompson's murder, though the motive remains unconfirmed, is speculated to be linked to his profession, evidenced by shell casings found at the scene.
