Koteski had recently told Suclea that ATG Truckload “was going bankrupt.” Even though Koteski “owed a substantial amount of money to Suclea,” Koteski “was unable to pay him.”
Regardless, this person didn’t kill them for the greater good, or to make a political and social statement. They killed them out of anger, and it did nothing for the greater good. This guy is not Luigi. He’s just a killer.
Not the OP, but this fact is widely attested. The statistic is right on the Wikipedia page for wage theft. In 2012, the FBI estimated it to be more than $19 billion in total. The next-highest category of property crime was larceny, at $4.3 billion.
it was substantial to the employees whose work was going unpaid. And it’s all too easy for companies to rebrand with a different name and ditch their obligations. VPNSecure was just called out doing exactly that.

Fair enough. Still, the “CEO” of a small trucking company shouldn’t be killed for wage theft. Cut his hand off.

One could say a dollar is substantial. There are very easy ways to correct the issue without killing people.
But, if you fuck with people you find out, right?
