Tim Dillon is making some controversial jokes.

The 39-year-old comedian appeared as the “ghost” of murdered United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson in a new Netflix special, Torching 2024: A Roast Of The Year.

If you didn’t know, Brian Thompson was shot dead outside a Manhattan hotel on December 4, and suspect Luigi Mangione was arrested days later on murder charges.

During the special, Tim appeared onstage dressed similarly to a widely-shared photo of the late CEO, wearing a navy blue pullover and tan khakis while wrapped in black chains.

“I’m Brian Thompson,” he declared. “I’m going to hell for this… you might as well laugh.”

“I’m the CEO of UnitedHealthcare, and I understand that a lot of you are happy I’m dead,” he continued.

“Yeah, I read the tweets! You don’t think they have X in hell? That’s all they have in hell! Half the people commenting on there are burning in a vat of boiling oil,” he joked.

“Let me tell you, your reaction to my murder makes me sick… and not the type of sick I would immediately deny for not having the proper paperwork. You’ve gotta have the paperwork!”

He went on to joke that the CEO’s last thought was: “I love my job.”

“I do, because I help people. Not by giving them healthcare, but by denying it! Oh, your nana needs her insulin? Maybe your nana needs to make better choices,” he went on.
