This story seems to have faded in the wake of events ad nauseam. We are all aware of Senor Luigi. However, most folks can’t recall the full name of the guy that allegedly Luigi gunned down. Mission accomplished.

Brian Thompson obviously killed himself.

Release the Thompson files!

And by that I mean: Promise to release the files for years and then decide no one should be prosecuted and say "why is everyone still talking about that guy?"

It is impressive how scared the wealthy elite are of this man and what he did.

He must be aquitted so they finally understand they're not untouchable. Someone might kill them for the shit they pull.

The guy that was gunned down by someone was Evil Healthcare Prick.
