A group of investors sued UnitedHealthcare Group on Wednesday, accusing the company of misleading them after the killing of its CEO, Brian Thompson.
The class action lawsuit — filed in the Southern District of New York — accuses the health insurance company of not initially adjusting their 2025 net earning outlook to factor in how Thompson’s killing would affect their operations.

The group, which is seeking unspecified damages, argued that the public backlash prevented the company from pursuing “the aggressive, anti-consumer tactics that it would need to achieve” its earnings goals.
In a world gone Onion, that’s easily the most Onion’ish true story I’ve seen. So far…
They’re literally suing the company for not being evil enough.
That’s so insane that merely taking part in that suit should be seen as grounds for a psych hold.
