      I low key have been wondering since the press conference last night if they used facial recognition software to find him.

      They said he had multiple fake IDs on him. I find it crazy that he took so many precautions in New York and was just walking around with all that in his pockets.

      • Right? This guy they picked up had a ghost gun, silencer, and manifesto on him despite all the other careful planning? I mean, I know criminals very often fuck up in very stupid ways but who is dumb enough to use a ghost gun, but not dispose of it after using it for a crime? And also walk around with basically an admission of guilt? Something is fishy.

          The NYPD will walk into his interrogation room and conveniently walk out with an admission of guilt that they totally didn’t use “enhanced interrogation techniques” to get.

          Yeah, they need a fall guy to dissuade copycats, so they’re going to frame the first close match they find.

      They are deff running serious fake news op on pinning it on this guy…

      But it still doesn’t make sense to me. Do all of that just to be picked at fastslop after cashier snitches on you?
