‘Delay, Deny, Defend’ author speaks out after bullets used to kill CEO Brian Thompson etched with message echoing book
After the words discovered written on the bullets used to kill CEO Brian Thompson echoed his book, the author of Delay, Deny, Defend has spoken out.
At the Manhattan murder scene, investigators discovered the phrases “deny,” “depose,” and “defend” etched on live rounds and shot casings.
The three-word statement is remarkably similar to a book about insurance firms written by Professor Jay M. Feinman, a specialist in insurance law, and released in 2010.
The book is a harsh critique of the insurance system and is titled Delay, Deny, Defend: Why Insurance Companies Don’t Pay Claim and What You Can Do About.
In response to the Sun’s question regarding any possible connection to Wednesday’s horrific massacre, the author said, “No comment, sorry.”
“Dozens of stories involving major insurers” are included in the book, which is described as offering advice to readers “on how to make insurance buying decisions and pursue disputed claims.”
