They know ammunition found near Thompson’s body bore the words “delay,” “deny” and “depose,” mimicking a phrase used by insurance industry critics. The fact that the shooter knew the UnitedHealthcare group was holding a conference at the hotel and what route Thompson might take to get there suggested that he could be a disgruntled employee or client, NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny said.
