The Adjuster pulls off a nearly flawless hit in the heart of NYC and disappears, then some guy gets caught at a McDonald’s with the murder weapon, fake IDs that he supposedly already used, and a fucking manifesto in his bag. The pictures of the shooter show completely inconsistent eyebrows with the guy they arrested. The nose is suspect as well.
This guy is a patsy. That’s why he was yelling about “insulting the intelligence” of the people. And yet, those who consume news slop uncritically will buy it without even questioning it. They’ll call people who look at valid, publicly-released pictures and see what is obviously two different people crazy. This is modern day, corpo-feudalist America.
The media is owned. The narrative is owned. Challenging the status quo is not allowed.
So the whole "perfect crime" I don't get.
They tracked a lot of his movement via street cameras by now, so while he did a really good job, he's also not infallible. He left behind his backpack with a jacket and the monopoply money which is hilarious but incredibly risky. They did also pull some trash and a phone he may have dropped right?
there's also a world where maybe he's either a rich kid with a sense of self-righteousness and just wants to get his manifesto out, OR where he's a bumbling idiot, or mentally unstable even, which would lead to irrationable moves like keeping the suppressor and gun on him.
There are so many variables to this, it's silly to immediately put on the tinfoil hat.
See what develops, see the facts present themselves as this goes on, and draw a logical conclusion once there's enough.
why would he walk around with the everything cops need to arrest and convict him though? the crime was clean, is the same person who committed a clean and well planned crime going to be walking around with the murder weapon and a manifesto placing him both at the crime scene and giving him a clear motive?
few days ago i said "someone will be arrested and tried for this, will it be the person who actually did it, or someone who has the misfortune of looking kinda like the guy". so far it seems it's someone who got unlucky because, quite frankly, the evidence seems made up
Thats what i mean, we just don't know. I want to believe that he's not the guy but i won't act like its a fact.
Could be that he wanted to get the evidence out of town to dispose it. Could be that hes a dummy. Could be that police is planting it all on a rando that some grampa called in.
We dont fuckin know.
Dude allegedly went to Georgia then up to Pa and never ditched the gun anywhere and wore the same exact clothes and didn't buy a different jacket with the cash he had on hand?
Also didn't they find the jacket with the decoy bag?
