The latest images, captured from a vehicle, show a hooded individual wearing a disposable face mask both inside and outside of a taxi. A backpack with contents including a Tommy Hilfiger jacket and Monopoly game money was recovered near the crime scene, prompting further investigations into the suspect’s identity. As details unfold, the motive surrounding the murder remains unclear, although bullet casings found near Thompson have drawn scrutiny for the words “deny,” “defend,” and “depose” inscribed on them, language potentially linked to critics of the U.S. private health insurance sector. Reports suggest that the shooter may have since left New York City, with suspicions that he may be heading to Atlanta, Georgia.

The murder of Brian Thompson sheds light on ongoing frustrations regarding the U.S. healthcare system and its private insurance framework.

The case continues to develop as authorities remain vigilant in their pursuit of justice for Thompson and his family.
