The New York Police Department is crowd-sourcing their investigation into the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson to the general public after two days with no positive ID on the shooter. But they may not get much help from the internet, according to multiple popular TikTok sleuths.

It's funny because 2010 internet would have tried to find this guy no matter the circumstances. I'm glad the enamor of social media has worn off so that "not your army" is completely internalized.

    Would they? They went after bombers who hurt innocent bystanders, for instance.

    But would they have gone after someone that did something people really have sympathy for? I don’t know that there’s any precedent suggesting they would.
