I think we need about two more within the next month to have an impact on CEO risk calculation. Of course the guy is definitely going to get caught if he strikes again.
Cops have one singular mission: protect rich folks. They will pull out stops we’ve never seen before to get this guy if he looks like he won’t stop on his own. He’ll probably get caught anyway, but if he’s smart he’ll take the W and disappear.
Of course, the most likely result isn’t a change of behavior, but having bodyguards be part of the standard CEO compensation package.
Leaders at Allied Universal, which provides security services for 80 percent of Fortune 500 companies, said their phones were “ringing off the hook” on Wednesday with potential clients. Allied covers a wide spectrum of services — including stationing guards outside offices, chauffeuring executives, surveilling their homes and tracking their families.
Protecting a chief executive full time costs roughly $250,000 a year, said Glen Kucera, who runs Allied’s enhanced protection services.
If I ever wanted to ruin a megacorporation for ruining my life, I’d start going after the lowest wrung of the ladder. Give two warnings and then execute the plan on them. Non-fatal accidents and the like. Warn again. Move on to the next one. Warn them etc. Repeat as long as necessary. Never go for the higher ups that can afford security.
This will probably never happen to me, because I don’t live in the late stage capitalist hell-scape.

So it costs less than one major life saving surgery then.
$250k a year?
That’s it?
Sounds like it needs to get a bit more expensive.
If assassins started going after the guards, those guards might want more danger money.
For legal reasons, this is an observation not a suggestion.

That’s why the new CEO will be found promptly and denial rates will increase sharply.
My hope is prospective school shooters see praise given to The Adjuster and change their MO so innocent children are spared.
That’s a great perspective! I love it.
