I'm starting to believe the "McDonalds" identification might be a slight of hand to protect privacy invasions?

I’m timid about this and might be late to a party where others already had this idea, so please, no haters.
I can’t get over how facile and stupid the identification of LM was at a McDoballs. This is someone who fell off the entire grid for three months??
Just asking… but couldn’t an organization trying to conceal its reach and inevitability track a fella… and then… force an identification?
I do not have any idea about details… it’s broad strokes. Could it be? How many other privacy lovers heard about these three months completely off the grid somehow and also wondered… how?
Please pardon if this isn’t the appropriate place but the real theme is privacy. What if the watchers are always watching even when a person might believe they have made themself completely digitally invisible?
You're viewing a single thread.
Three months? And no one correcting you on that? WTF? Couple of days between shooting and arrest...!
Other than that: yeah, unlikely anyone could recognize anyone from those pubished photos.
I think the story was that he had disappeared from friends and family for a few months prior.
And how is that relevant to the authorities "not being able to find" someone when they are not looking for that person? oO
I heard that he went into hiding months before the actual shooting.

I only mentioned it because it was a detail you might not have heard?

That directly juxtaposes the seemingly easy identification with an implication/presumption/insinuation/allegation that authorities were unable to find someone for 3 months. Since they were not looking, the original statement as such is pointless.
It establishes how careful his behavior was during those three months. Obviously he was not famous for murder during that time, but it might lead us to believe that a person living on a post pandemic world and seeking to remain anonymous might have chosen a mask at Mc Ds? For that matter… why not on the sidewalk where the event happened?
Thank you! I was starting to think I was crazy.
