    The shooting “tarnished UnitedHealthcare’s reputation and disrupted its operational stability,” Ge Bai, a professor of health policy and management at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Maryland, told Newsweek.

    No, it did not, don’t pin that one on Luigi.

    UnitedHealthcare did that all on their lonesome, by profiteering on people’s pain and suffering.

      “In a statement today, interim CEO of Cockroach Inc. expressed extreme displeasure that Luigi shined a light on their roaches nest for others to see.”
