1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,880 Speaker 1: Dan Mitchinson US correspondence with US. Now, Hey Dan, Hey Heather. Okay, 2 00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:07,080 Speaker 1: so this guy, we've got some theories as to why 3 00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:10,760 Speaker 1: he shot the CEO, and it's basically because of the 4 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:12,880 Speaker 1: engravings on the casings. 5 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:16,200 Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, I mean that these these words delay and 6 00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:20,279 Speaker 2: depos were found on the live rounds of shell casings. 7 00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:24,000 Speaker 2: And I mean, the shooter's motive is still unclear, but uh, 8 00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:30,040 Speaker 2: CNN's reporting that the parent company of United Healthcare, which 9 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 2: is the largest insurance company that we have over here, 10 00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:34,800 Speaker 2: was aware of threats against this guy. And it's interesting 11 00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 2: because CEOs have all types of security around them, and Thompson, 12 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 2: as we saw in this video that's been circulated right 13 00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:41,680 Speaker 2: now if you've seen it on social media, he was 14 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 2: out on his own with no security when this happened. 15 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 2: And so it's they're they're they're saying right now, because 16 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 2: this this shooter arrived early before he was there, it 17 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,239 Speaker 2: looks like there was some kind of surveillance going on 18 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 2: and he knew where to be at the exact place 19 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 2: at the exact time. 20 00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. Okay. Now, the reason that that what was written 21 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 1: on the casings as important is because he written he'd 22 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:06,959 Speaker 1: written deny, defend, deposed, delay, and the words delay, deny, 23 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 1: defend are the title of a book a and the 24 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,959 Speaker 1: book is why insurance companies don't pay claims and what 25 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:11,760 Speaker 1: you can do about it. 26 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 2: Yes, so that's where they're kind of connecting everything right now, 27 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 2: I mean, and seeing that you know this guy is 28 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 2: an assassin, yes, is he a professional? Probably not, because 29 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 2: you wouldn't do something like that. We've also got a 30 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,319 Speaker 2: good shot of his face right now. We don't know 31 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,320 Speaker 2: if this was before after the assassination, and they may 32 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 2: have some DNA samples too. There there was a phone 33 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:31,959 Speaker 2: that was found nearby. There was a water bottle founder 34 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,960 Speaker 2: the scene of the shooting that may have belonged to 35 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 2: the guy. And they even think they have a fingerprint 36 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,039 Speaker 2: as well that looks like it's pretty well. The fingerprint 37 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 2: itself is a little smeared, but you know, they're still 38 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 2: working on getting some out of the other items. 39 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. So some some pretty rooky mistakes, but then some 40 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 1: stuff that he did which makes him look like he 41 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 1: might have known what he was doing as well, like 42 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 1: he obviously had a jamming in his gun. First of all, 43 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: he surveyed the guy knew that the guy was there, 44 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: and then his gun jammed and he did what's called 45 00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 1: a tap wreck bang, which fixes up. So he's not 46 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: a nervous with a gun, is he. 47 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 2: No, he's not. And you look at that video on 48 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 2: you it's not something that you want to look at. 49 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 2: It's just it's hard not to because you look at 50 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 2: the guy and he looks very professional initially, and he 51 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 2: gives off a number of shots before the gun jams. 52 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 2: Like you said, he fixes that problem in a minute, 53 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 2: and he goes back and he does it again, and 54 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 2: then he you know, he takes off. There was one 55 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,079 Speaker 2: witness right there who ran the other ways, and he 56 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 2: witness would at the time, and they're hoping that person 57 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 2: might be able to help identify that or maybe some 58 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,920 Speaker 2: of the people that shared that hostel that you were 59 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 2: just talking about in the World wires. 60 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 1: Hey, how are you guys going after that quake? 61 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 2: I got to tell you, Heather, I mean, I didn't 62 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 2: feel that I was right sort of in the middle 63 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 2: of it. It was up to the north of Sacramento. 64 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,079 Speaker 2: It was felt hundreds of miles to the south down 65 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 2: in the Bay Area in San Francisco. But because it 66 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 2: was off the coast here there wasn't any serious damage. 67 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 2: I mean, this was a magnitude seven point zero, and 68 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 2: I mean there were five million people that were put 69 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 2: under a tsunami warning and that was eventually canceled. But 70 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 2: that's something that doesn't happened very often along the California coast. 71 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,679 Speaker 2: And I mean, you had this quick been inland or 72 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 2: in a more populated areas we've seen before in places 73 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 2: like Los Angeles and San Francisco, I mean, that could 74 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:10,799 Speaker 2: have caused a heck of a lot of damage, and 75 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 2: you know, I don't even want to think about the 76 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 2: number of deaths too. But fortunately, again it was off 77 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 2: the coast and blew off some steam from the tectonic 78 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,359 Speaker 2: plates that we have around here, so hopefully we won't 79 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 2: have a bigger one after this. 80 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 1: Now, what's this business with time limits on coverage and 81 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 1: for the anesthetic that you take if you have surgery. 82 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean there was an anesthesiologists The insurance company 83 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 2: was planning to limit the amount of time it would 84 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 2: cover anesthesia used in surgeries and procedures. This was Anthem, 85 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 2: Blue Cross and Blue Shield, and they said, okay, we're 86 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 2: not We're going to halt this or you're going to have 87 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 2: a limited amount of time that you can do that. 88 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 2: After that, the patient's going to have to, you know, 89 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 2: pay for anything additional. Well then a couple of hours ago, boom, 90 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 2: they did a complete U turn on this, and they're saying, Okay, 91 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 2: maybe this wasn't such a good idea. We were trying 92 00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 2: to do this because we were trying to cut down 93 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 2: on the strain that providers and patients go through and 94 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 2: and a lot of the costs, and we thought this 95 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 2: would actually save money for some people. But oh man, 96 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 2: did this did this give attle black eye? I mean 97 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 2: this they said, this is a whole misunderstanding of how 98 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 2: things work. And no, it was just a really bad 99 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 2: decision by somebody that you know, at the upper levels 100 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:18,839 Speaker 2: of management. 101 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: Right, Dan, So this is the last time I'm going 102 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: to talk to you for the year because I've got 103 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: to the big dog, the HOSK.
