chill out anon, let the information speak rather than your feely-feels about how it is treated.
Looks like N532R or N832R

Lantana, Florida 33462
It's a $6M palatial mansion on the coast (Boca Raton) area.
Smells like Getty related or the Florida equivalent of.
It's categorized as a Cleanup Service, which provides Scientific Consulting.
Fits with the possibility of being bio-hazard related. Plane flew out of St. Louis, Missouri.
NG pilots reportedly saw one pilot on-board, FAA records apparently have listed the pilot's name, hispanic - three names - Juan something-or-other, meaning he filed a flight plan.
The only single-pilot certified Cessna Citation is a variant of the model 500, or the Citation 1/SP. It has a max range of about the distance supposedly traveled, 1311 nm, but Florida Maquis reported in the first video that intercept pilots reported it making radical changes in altitude and speed before plunging in.
I'm thinking remote control took over about the time Ft. Lauderdale Executive reported loss of contact and requested the intercept. If he was under Tower control instead of ARTCC, then he had been descending for approach, possibly for several-ten minutes.
Was the pilot awake and the plane under remote control?
Did he communicate by hand gesture with the pilots?
Was there a camera in the cabin that allowed a possible remote operator to make those radical changes to prevent such communication? Flight paths at the intercept should confirm.
Lots of supposition and assumption there, but perhaps some intuition?
