framed rule
I'd sincerely recommend everyone to read his manifesto and think about it a little bit.
Also, we're still wondering if the McSnitch is getting their reward money. The last I heard they were thinking about withholding it.
And that would be such a great propaganda point to show that US law enforcement doesn't regard the rest of us as full persons / citizens and will cheat us out of our due even when we cooperate. So yeah, no-one sees nothing. Ever. You're a collaborator if you do.
Zero Witnesses.
I was suspicious at first too, but now as weird as the whole scenario looks my skepticism has weakened (e.g. people say he's been missing from work during the shooting, the unibrow may have been simply visually deformed by the shitty camera, etc.).
But you know what, I think it's better to stop trying to be smarter than what is reasonably possible, and at the very least wait and see what he and his lawyer will have to say in the court. E.g. if the evidence was fabricated, they will certainly try to argue that. Not everything about the story will clear up, but some things can, and I say it's better to wait it out with a bit of patience.
Besides, what if it really wasn't Luigi and we've all been duped? How will the fanboys and fangirls lusting after him feel? What will the smart businessmen do with their leftover Saint Luigi candles?
Are we fucking with sofas again?
This is one of my dystopian thriller elements: If the police can't find the culprit of a high-profile crime, then they find someone, plant an orgy of evidence and railroad him into capital punishment or life in a supermax. Just to show that the long arm of the law always wins.
Doing a for-real investigation and just disappearing / killing off any likely suspects is optional, depending on how vengeful the elites feel about it.
potential explanations:
it's him and he genuinely wasn't running (as his confession suggests), whilst also being chased by the police surveillance state, so even if he was running it would take meticulous planning to truly avoid the cops.
it's him and he planned to get caught and the confession, the inconsistencies etc. are intended to make prosecuting him "without a doubt" incredibly difficult. You can bet money on his lawyer knowing a lot of these inconsistencies too, and exploiting them in court.
it's him but he's trying to obscure his motives etc. for [reason]. (unlikely)
it isn't him but a lookalike who's being framed for it because of [conspiracy theory]. (unlikely)
it isn't him but a lookalike who framed themselves for [reason]. (unlikely)
I still don't think he's the same guy who shot the CEO, it's clearly for me a different person in the photos...
However, at this point this changes nothing of what's going to happen, anyone caught for this would be facing the same charges. Let's hope the jury feels as we all do and lets him walk
to be clear on the “3d printed guns explode after 3 shots” thing.
It depends. If it’s 100% 3d printed parts, including bolt/slide and barrel, then yah, a few shots is the most you’d get out of it.
But most “3d printed guns” are using off the shelf barrels and bolts/slides, parts that are usually not registered and tracked. The parts that are register and tracked are usually the parts that hold trigger assemblies and grips, things that can be made of plastic since they’re not directly handling the stress of firing.
So the fact that the gun (the suspect was arrested with) is intact doesn’t mean it was never used. It also doesn’t mean it was definitely the gun used.
The situation still seems weird, but, we’ll see what the different parties have to say on the matter when they go to trial.
You would think the police would pick someone who wasn’t so photogenic.
More likely he had no real semblance of getting away with it and just happened to escape due to the incompetence of the NYPD.
People who typically go through these plans are not the most mentally stable, he was probably expecting to be caught so he wrote his manifesto beforehand and thought he'd try to see how far he could get.
Most of all, he probably did not expect the authorities fail to ID him, which is also why he made it for so long.
Even the Mcdonalds employee might have reported him for other reasons like loitering or general sketchiness and not because they thought he was the shooter.
Still I think it's funny how he inadvertently proved the ease of crime with pretty basic rules. Any sort of organized crime, especially one off jobs could probably do it even more discretely and get away with it.
Usual reminder that everything pigs say is false until proven otherwise
I have said it once and I will say it again: I am genuinely shocked at just how many people, especially on Lemmy, are just accepting that Luigi is the real shooter. I haven't believed it for one minute and the only thing that will make me believe it is audio proof of Luigi confessing while not under duress.
The thing that gets me is the McDonald's employees tip. Whenever something like this happens the police are flooded with false information and bad tips, this case would have been even moreso due to the politics involved. What made them decide this random person in another state was credible? What about this tip in particular made them say "this information should be followed up on."
Luigi is innocent. A witness across the street stated they didn't hear gunshots at the time.
Eric's head just did that.
First thing in the manifesto "yeah the cops are still really cool and I like them"
4chan op has a tenuous grasp of how time and pictures work.
Here's what I might do if I couldn't catch a murderer but wanted to make an example anyway, and I had access to AI art that was very good at getting approximately accurate images of people...
What does everyone think they do with all their biometric and Face ID data? Throw a shitty algorithm against this data cross referencing a pic from a grainy security feed and in this post truth era, 100% of crimes are now solvable.
somehow the cops just know from grainy 140p footage
was miraculously not shattered into pieces, which happens to all other 3d printed guns.
the very well-built gun has a particular reload quirk that was seen in the surveillance footage
the doubt about not disposing the gun is a fair point. i suppose he either wanted to seed doubt to the prosecution (as someone else claimed below), or just forgot to plan this part
would naturally spend a long period of time sitting in a public place
fair point, but i think he simply settled into routine. this is corroborated by him being "visibly shaken" and not−well-prepared to someone asking him about the murder
including the additional time it would take for the cops to respond and then arrive
he obviously did not know someone tipped him off
a random McDonald s worker
slight correction: a fellow customer told the worker. if the concern here is that he would hide his face to the worker, well he may have dropped his guard after going back to his seat
lost a couple inches in height, changed skin colour
their new yet slightly different face
tf you mean
Grow unibrow and beard
It seems like he wanted to get caught. Am I missing something?
