Florida mom arrested for saying ‘Delay Deny Depose’ on call with BlueCross BlueShield health insurer: ‘You people are next’

quote A Florida mother was arrested for saying the phrase “Delay, Deny, Depose” — in an apparent reference to the targeted UnitedHealthcare CEO killing — on a call to a health insurance company over a denied claim. Briana Boston, 42, was arrested at her Lakeland. Fla., home on Tuesday after allegedly making threats on a call to BlueCross BlueShield regarding the denial of a recent medical insurance claim, WFLA reported. Boston ended the recorded conversation with the company rep by saying “Delay, deny, depose. You people are next,” Lakeland Police said, according to the local outlet. Detectives with the Lakeland Police later showed up at Boston’s home and questioned her about the phone conversation with the insurance giant. The mother of three then told cops that “healthcare companies played games and deserved karma from the world because they are evil.” Boston does not own any firearms and claimed to cops that she “was not a danger to anyone,” WFLA reported. But police said the angry mom intended to threaten the company by purposefully invoking a phrase strikingly similar to the one Luigi Mangione allegedly scrawled on bullets he’s accused of shooting UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson with. Mangione, who is facing a murder charge in the slaying, allegedly wrote “Deny,” “Defend,” and “Depose” on ammunition recovered at the murder scene outside a Midtown Manhattan hotel. The three words are a play on the title of the 2010 book “Delay, Deny, Defend: Why Insurance Companies Don’t Pay Claims and What You Can Do About It” which criticizes the American healthcare system.

This was just pretty darn stupid on Briana Boston's part. Regardless of how one views the recent murder of the CEO, just about every conversation we have to most corporations and I believe government agencies is recorded.

Decisions have consequences and not letting one's mouth override good common sense can and in this case has a consequences. Even what we post on this old car forum is recorded, kept and can be used against the poster in the future. Whether it's the government prosecuting or just some news agency reporting, it can all come back to haunt you.
