BREAKING NEWS Assassin's three chilling words on bullets left behind after shooting UnitedHealthcare CEO in brazen Manhattan attack

Wrote stuff on the shell casings?

>> Wrote stuff on the shell casings?

Could be a clue as to the motive of the killer,

~OR~

Could be a ruse intended to deflect suspicion onto a particular group, e.g. health care rights anarchists or something like that.

It looked to me as if the shooter was using a suppressed Ruger MKIV with subsonic ammo that did not have enough power to work the semiautomatic action and he had to manually recycle the bolt between shots.

[Nervous Tick]

In the picture in the article, #2 doesn’t look like a casing to me — it looks like a whole, unfired cartridge.

Caliber appears to be 9mm and the casing resembles Critical Defense steel case.

Picture is low-res so it’s hard to tell for sure.

[Organic Panic]

Forgive me for not trusting a single word from any “law enforcement” agency. They all serve the swamp.

The masked killer draws out a large gun fitted with a silencer and shots him in the back, sending the CEO stumbling down the street.

You can do better, Daily Mail UK.

good point

If so there should be at least two casings in addition to three cartridges on the ground. Wonder what the other two had written on them, if anything?

In The Man with the Golden Gun, James Bond receives a gold bullet with the number “007” inscribed on it, indicating that he is the target of Francisco Scaramanga, also known as “The Man with the Golden Gun”.

[TigerClaws]

Bullets are a pre-existing condition.

Coverage DENIED.

[Stingray51]

Yeah, apparently there was book slamming the insurance industry with those three words in the title. So maybe a disgruntled policyholder or relative, or maybe a red herring. The widow commented that the victim received threats possibly relating to a “lack of coverage”. On the one hand, I don’t think a hitman would send messages like that. And on the other, it seems odd for somebody upset over a claim denial to use a silencer and have an effective disguise and getaway. Kinda makes me suspect that leaving that message behind was part of the job.

I’m going to go with this is the deep state making a statement to Trump.

.22 LR casings are pretty small. I can see them not being able to find them all on a city sidewalk/street.

[Angelino97]

I don’t think a hitman would send messages like that.

A hired hitman would, if he was paid to do so.

[Ben Dover]

The weapon looks like a welrod. A welrod needs to be chambered manually after each shot.

[No name given]

Obviously.

[No name given]

I believe so, yes.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

The weapon looks like a welrod.

You're right. I stand corrected. I didn't even know they existed.

[SuperLuminal]

"...casings with the words 'deny', 'defend' and 'depose' inscribed on them."

"... now working to determine what the words mean and if they could possibly hint at a motive..."

Good grief!
This would seem to indicate that the morons at the FBI are also on the case...

MSM will very quickly solve the riddle: "MAGA"

[matt04]

Such a bizarre case.
