A law enforcement source told our sister station, ABC7 Eyewitness News in New York, that the suspect's unmasked smile came as he flirted with the front desk clerk who checked him into the hostel, and encouraged him to drop the mask so she could see his smile. The suspect obliged, pulling his mask down long enough for the surveillance camera to capture his face.

Oof.

1/3rd, or about 16m people.

If that's all they got on the guy they ain't finding shit.

That's like 21% of America's population! That said, it could have been a relative and the suspect had a different provider.

The US pop is ~335m, so 21% would be 70m people. Regardless, it's way too many people to sort through.

And the relative with a different provider thing completely shreds the already dismal chances of finding him through an insurance denial letter.
