LAKELAND, Fla. – A Florida woman, Briana Boston, 42, was arrested after allegedly threatening her health insurance provider, Blue Cross Blue Shield, over denied medical claims.
Boston made the threat during a phone call on December 10th. In the call, she reportedly stated, “Delay, deny, depose. You people are next.”
This phrase has been linked to recent acts of violence, including the fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
