-Lurid Crime Tales-
Briana Boston, a 42-year-old mother of three, was arrested for making threats to BlueCross BlueShield over a rejected medical claim
2024-12-13
[X] This is why we don’t post things that could be interpreted as threats. Who now will care for her children?

… who is now facing up to 15 years in prison, allegedly quoted Mangione, saying, "Delay, Deny, Depose. You people are next."

This was a similar message that Mangione left on his bullet casings.

The woman told investigators that "healthcare companies played games and deserved karma from the world because they are evil," adding that she was inspired by the recent news cycle.

Boston was charged with threats to conduct a mass sh**ting or act of terrorism.

Her bond was set at $100,000. She faces up to 15 years behind bars.

#10  Supe has a good take on it.

#9  I'm with Supe @ number 4. If they were any good, they would not have to spend millions on teevee adverts. Example: USAA.

Example of little or no teevee adverts: Netjets, Tikka rifles, Snap On tools. Kershaw cutlery.

You decide.

#8  Nobody should support this assassination. Hold this woman and Luigi accountable to the fullest extent of the law, but let’s get the corporate gravy train that is Obamacare back on the docket for demolition. Obamacare created United. All of us are paying for their scam. It’s the leftie’s fault for shining a light on the Uniparty boondoggle.

#6  People act like this because they have never been punched in the mouth. Now she will be. It will make her a better person.

#5  Just yesterday we had a couple of comments supporting the actions of Luigi. I'm not sure why anyone was in a hurry to be on the same side as Taylor Lorenz.

#4  Lefties going to jail for a problem they created. Anti-trust legislation and regulation is need to prevent insurance companies from owning, pharmacies, pill manufacturers and bill processing operations. Johnson needs to step up where Paul Ryan failed. Ryan failed because he was and is corrupt.

#3  Its a sign of the promised government oversight failure. The olde vigilantism follows failed law enforcement.

Like I shared, person who has paid in all their life needs medicine, gets it and is covered, then gets a letter saying, nah no more but here is this cheaper, ineffective, and literally mortally allergenic medicine which we will. Thoroughly reviewed, they said. We can't drop you so fuck off and die, they said.

OK, threatening or worse anyone, is illegal and immoral.
I am sure, many others have felt utter life consuming frustration trying to hold them to their carefully worded and semi-promised coverages.

The Healthcare & Medical Industrial Complex needs to be held to a Patient Bill Of Rights standard. Patient Rights that prohibit their many haphazard, randomly approved/disapproved claims and randomly adjusted amounts paid.

Rights that are clearly written in plainly written/spoken English. Rights that hold their butts to directly answering and/or rewarding the customer, not the Federal Gov.
