So the cost of an asprin, a bandaid, and 3 jellybeans in a US hospital?

Doesn’t even include ambulance ride. City EMS is out of network for UHC
Only if your not denied (☞゚ヮ゚)☞
That doesn’t seem like it’s enough money to pay an enormous hospital bill.
So 0.5% of his reported $10+ million annually compensation package.
Interesting that neither his colleagues nor family are chipping in to make this larger.
Why would they? That just eats into their profits. It doesn't make them richer.
They'd have better chances if they offered the former CEO's one month's pay.
The fbi is now on the case for a murder of a man on the street. They wouldn't pull these resources for any other murder.
This is a joke.
5X upgrade in bounty from $10K offered by crime stoppers. Investigation must be drying up. Probably be up to 6 figures by end of month
The longer it takes, the less likely they'll find him no matter how much money they put up.
Isn't it fucked that they're doing this for this guy just because he's rich?
Can someone give context, is this the same reward that's given for the other about 800 murders that happen each year in New York or is that guy getting special rich guy privileges beyond his death?
I just checked the NYPD's most wanted list:
... Please feel free to draw your own conclusions about this CEO manhunt.
Request denied.
you could use that $50k to pay for one night at the hospital that your insurance won't cover!
Maybe someone will talk when they offer better insurance coverage.
Also, many times reward money isn't paid due to 'reasons', like "yeah you gave legid info which led to the arrest, but we got the same information through other channels too". You get your reward money rejected like it's your insurance claim.
The amount of grief and strife this man caused to countless families through the actions of his corporation are beyond calculation.
50k won't even register.
I was driving through rural Tennessee today and I’m pretty sure I saw him at a gas station.
I have a friend in Iowa who said the same thing.
Man this guy really goes places
People are gunned down every day in the streets, cops barely investigate it. What gives this guy priority?
So they went from .02% to .14% of his yearly take 🤣. They must not care very much about finding this guy
Even low balling people on the fucking reward money. Cheap fucks.
I saw him get on a submarine in the great lakes. They should concentrate their search in the waters.
If you are desperate for money, you could always shoplift at a corporate chain (make sure its not a mom&pop small bussiness) rather than turning on your fellow man.
(Edit: Not saying that you should shoplift, but its still better than turning in the perpetrator)
I watched videos of the FBI and their technology, but apparently all it takes to avoid them is to leave your phone behind, cycle with monopoly money and wear common inconspicuous clothing that covers you up? The fuck happened
How much for information related to literally any other unsolved murder in the US?
Can anyone give even a bad reason for a reward this high that doesn't involve the wealth of the target? Just for the sake of it, I'll take even the most tortured argument that doesn't relate to the fact that he was a CEO.
Damn, $50,000 - Gov really don't like the idea of someone being able to kill a rich person and getting away with it
So what's the justification for the feds being involved? What other state is involved other than NY?
they lost track of him at a bus station so I guess they;re using that as a flimsy pretext to pass the investigation off from the famously incompetent NYPD.
This wont even pay for most surgeries that UHC denies regularly.
Well the FBI is about to be shutdown in a month, so
Well at least it's more then my deductible now
I have information.
It's all untrue, I just want $50k.
It's still information, tho.
I thought it was OK to Cross State Lines with Weapons? Or is it only OK if you Kill Poor Democrats?
