Man Arrested for Killing Healthcare CEO had "manifesto"

[Bluetus]

4. It seems his priority was to get this debate in public

He seems like a fairly intelligent person. Everything suggests he knew he would be caught. His priority was on killing the guy in a way that would terrorize CEOs in proportion to how they abuse those who depend on their insurance. He did take steps to get out of the city and lay low while the discussion rose up the "news chain". But he didn't do much to frustrate his capture. He went into shops in plain view. He could, for example, have worn a medical mask and sunglasses, and people would just think he was trying not to spread the flu. He made no attempt to hide his weapons or fake IDs. He surely knows he left DNA on the things he stashed in Central Park.

Based on all these things, I surmise he expected to be captured, and hopes to use his trial to "put UHC on trial", so to speak.

We'll see, but it is far from a senseless act, IMHO.
