After the assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, the public was more interested in the killer’s jacket than his personality. Sales of the model skyrocketed, and social networks were divided in their opinions about the tragedy.

Brian Thompson, 50, the CEO of United Healthcare, was shot and killed in Manhattan on December 4, 2024. The public quickly identified the jacket the killer was wearing as a Levi’s model and sales skyrocketed: 700 copies were sold in 48 hours. Internet users began to discuss it, and there was even a contest on Reddit to look like the killer. At the same time, tens of thousands of people expressed their support for the killer’s actions due to frustration with the US health care system.

United Healthcare is the largest healthcare company in the US, handling about half of all healthcare inquiries in the country. Its activities include more than 900,000 doctors and 33,000 pharmacies.
