A law enforcement source told our sister station, ABC7 Eyewitness News in New York, that the suspect's unmasked smile came as he flirted with the front desk clerk who checked him into the hostel, and encouraged him to drop the mask so she could see his smile. The suspect obliged, pulling his mask down long enough for the surveillance camera to capture his face.

Oof.

They are checking every dispute or contested denial of service brought against the company

Isn't that like half of their customers?

Isn't it crazy how much effort they're putting in to protect CEOs?

Crazy? Maybe.
Surprising? No.

Police protecting the wealthy isn't really anything new. If he had shot a filthy peasant instead of a bourgeois we likely wouldn't even know about this story at all.
On average, there's more than one gunshot homicide in NYC every day and I've barely heard of another one of them until now.

Capitalist states work in the interests the capitalist class, so not at all. This is like Marxism 101.

Detectives in the Crime Stoppers bureau worked through the night fielding calls and tips at 800-577-TIPS and online. Police are encouraging everyone to come forward with information, even with the smallest bit of information

marxism 101 is not an option-able course in this country; instead it's entirely self-paced and self-guide self study.

1/3rd, or about 16m people.

If that's all they got on the guy they ain't finding shit.

That's like 21% of America's population! That said, it could have been a relative and the suspect had a different provider.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 6 months ago

The US pop is ~335m, so 21% would be 70m people. Regardless, it's way too many people to sort through.

And the relative with a different provider thing completely shreds the already dismal chances of finding him through an insurance denial letter.

Oh woops bad math.. 4.6% assuming 346m and this is right.
