I've found it a bit weird how quickly people accepted that the guy they arrested must have been the shooter because they arrested him.
the casings found at the next CEO crime scene will be engraved Exculpate, Exonerate, Excuse
Which means F will be next!

Yeah when I woke up I thought there was a 90% chance that Luigi did it (and in that 90% I include a 30% chance that the official story of him being snitched is false and the feds are doing parallel construction) and 10% chance that this is just a convenient patsy they found to pin it on someone. But the more I think about it, the more that 10% grows to, like, 20%.
He's got patsy energy for sure. It's the not ditching the gun thing that's really bothering me
, I've never even been there and I'm absolutely confident I could dissappear a gun in NYC. Toss it in the river or any random storm drain and they'd have to sift through a big pile of other guns. Seems like something you'd only do if you wanted to get caught, but if that were the case you'd probably confess. Regardless I see absolutely no advantage to us for this guy to be seen as already guilty in the public eye, if he wasn't hot it would probably have helped. Now people want it to be him.
Oh I think if it was him, the gun is 100% planted still. But I find it somewhat as likely that it wasn't him, because why would an assassin who took as many precautions as they did, only travel 1 state away?
The tune changed from 'this guy may have been a pro' to 'guy they found at an icky dees with all the evidence needed to arrest on him one state over almost a full week later'. Also I default to not trusting the cops and feds when there's any doubt at all as to the guilt of someone arrested as well as the fact that I really hope the real killer is still out there. Best twist would be Luigi is intentionally taking the heat. If that's the case I will lionize.
Lol, it's in his blood to not collaborate with the cops. A real Italian hero
It becomes like then end of Joker but everyone is wearing the Chad Meme face as a mask
The narrative that he might have been planning to do another hit is also odd. Even if he did, why would he stash his stuff in his car instead of some hideout?
Because he was likely not in a stable mental state and didn't plan beyond getting out of the city.
Yes cops plant evidence, yes we shouldn't take them at their word, but if we're gonna criticize the surveillance state for only doing it's job to protect capital, shouldn't we also accept that it can do it's job very well in these situations?
You're missing my point entirely. I believe that if this really was the guy, then that gun must have been planted because the FBI must have used illegal methods to track him down (this is parallel construction, using illegal methods to build a case that can then be laundered via convenient stories like the McD's snitch) and just planted the gun to seal the deal.
What should be illegal and what is actually illegal under the Patriot Act and Five Eyes are vastly different things.
Just because the methods used to track him infringe on our privacy and rights doesn't mean the weapon was necessarily planted, he could've been planning a second attack or simply wanted to be caught.
Hmm, good point, but what if besides inadmissibility there's also just the question of getting the most final evidence possible and avoid relying on data that, say, the NSA may have gathered?
It's the fingerprints on the stuff he may have left behind and the fake IDs he used to book the hostel. I'm not sure on how accurate forensics is for a 3d printed gun.
I think last week as the investigation went on and he was nowhere to be found the general vibe was that he was some sort of criminal mastermind, with possible accomplices supporting him. I think it might have just been dumb luck he evaded capture as long as he did.
If it's not planted, and this guy really did it, then I don't think this is a matter of the cops doing their job well. If all that is true, then they didn't catch him at all, he turned himself in.
That and not changing jackets. Have you seen how many jackets this man owns? You're telling me he wouldn't have another one in his backpack?
