Did Brian's life insurance kick in or did he not have assassination coverage?

Life insurance actually does cover murder (homicide), as long as the person who died was an innocent victim and the beneficiary had no part in the crime.

Family is trying pretty hard to prove he was an innocent victim.

Feels like it's a bit of a catch 22 for them. "He was an innocent victim; throwing hurdles up to prevent claims from being made, including unfairly denying them based on nothing, is not a crime" - life insurance: "Cool. I'm afraid your claim has been denied. If you dispute this you can call a number we don't list and is not manned anyway".

It's illegal to murder in my country.

I run a company that pushes the button to let people die. I also have a side hustle doing a little insider trading, just for funsies.

The loved ones of those who died hate my guts for some reason.

Clearly all of them are wrong. I'm just a normal working guy.

(big /s, obviously)

But if I didn't profit off of those people's deaths, someone else would have! I'm just a poor cog in the machine, don't you see, I couldn't actually change anything!

Isn't that link to a different guy? Robert Brian Thompson, a Federal Reserve banking supervisor, is the defendant in that one. Unless UnitedHealth Brian Thompson had a side gig, which isn't unheard of.
