America's top internet sleuths have refused to help law enforcement officials track down the assassin of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
The 50-year-old father-of-two was gunned down earlier this week, with the footage of his assassination circulating on social media amidst an ongoing manhunt for his killer.
Typically this type of high-profile violent crime sets platforms including TikTok and X alight with buzz, with amateur internet sleuths hunting to root out the perpetrator.
But many armchair detectives have decided to keep schtum, even as eerie details filtered out earlier this week including a hidden message being left on shell casings at the scene.
One of those who opted to stand aside is Savannah Sparks, who has 1.3 million followers on TikTok.
Sparks tracks down the identities of racists who are caught in viral videos, and according to NBC has been tapped by law enforcement to help train officers on finding suspects online.
When asked by the outlet if she was working to find the suspect in Thompson's murder, she said: 'Absolutely the f*** not.'
Fellow TikTok sleuth, thatdaneshguy, who boasts 2 million followers on his platform posted a video of him being critical of the health care industry.

Well look at you issuing orders.
Why are you addressing me when I wasn’t addressing you?
Then her gain is your loss.
I will let you get the last word.
Go ahead.
Issuing more orders I see.
I’m still thinking that it’s possible this guy is being run by people who wanted the CEO out of the picture for reasons that had nothing to do with Healthcare as such.
You remember the kid who shot trump? Nobody seriously believes that this kid was doing this all on his own. The Secret Service and the FBI cannot be trusted at all.
Anyway, if this guy was being run to take him out to protect other people, we’re never going to know it.
There aren’t any internet sleuths. Made up bull. Any internet sleuths just regurgitate what they heard already and make it sound like they solved something. They don’t have access to evidence all they can do is speculate and lots of times it is obvious sometimes they will get lucky and most of the time they tell you all about it after it has already been solved.
It’s a forum all comments are public and anyone can reply to any comment. If it wasn’t meant to be this way then it wouldn’t be possible.
Chastisement is your game?
Well, none other than FreeRepublic itself puts the lie to everything you just wrote. Remember the CBS News/Dan Rather George W. Bush national guard hoax? It was “internet sleuths” on this very site who figured out and proved that CBS had faked the documents at the center of that alleged “scandal.” Several of our very own Freepers were directly responsible for exposing the fraud and ending Dan Rather’s career.
So, wanna rethink that little outburst?
How a group of online sleuths are helping the FBI track down Jan. 6 rioters
Some sleuths are more equal than others?
“““trantifa.””
Yes, I would agree with that.”
Hmmm. A weird possibility, UHC wouldn’t pay for its gender affirming surgery? On further thought unlikely. My company had UHC and a few years back they loudly proclaimed they would cover the surgeries.
Ja, ja: Schtumm wie ein Fisch!
Regards,
Yeah, i first thought it was trump related. Its really big healthcare related and its most likely personal to the shooter.
You can identify a lib right off the bat by their vulgar language..” ‘Absolutely the f*** not.”

Sorry to burst your bubble but there is an entire feminist cadre, a coven if you will, that is fully supported here.
They will complain to the “boss” and get you reprimanded if you respond to them in a critical fashion.
Some even do so if you simply include them in your response after they have asked you not to include them.
Good morning Fuzz. You made me smile with that comment. Have a great day bud.
Watch out for chastisement.
“There aren’t any internet sleuths.”
Back in the old Bill Clinton days there was a news media photograph of a table in the Oval Office.
On that table was a piece of paper with a lot of scribbles on it.
Folks here figured out what was on the piece of paper even though the mass media totally ignored it.
It listed a bunch of familiar Clinton scandals—and a bunch more that nobody knew about...
Except us...
Because we were “Internet sleuths”.
He’s a patsy whoever he is. I think this shooting has more to do with insider trading than insurance. The shooter will be found with two bullet holes in the back of his head and hanging from a tree. It will be ruled a suicide. The criminals will walk away with their bags of money.
