I thought the pizza box thing wasn't true because the authorities were already gearing up to nab him when that video aired
iirc they didn't know if he was in Romania or not but seeing the pizza box confirmed that he was. Of course they already knew where he lived just not if he was there.
why wouldn't they have just tracked his phone?
You have heard of 'burner' phones, haven't you?
You think the guy that blabbed about fleeing Romania to Adin Ross has some kind of burner phone rotation system?
Not all crooks are stupid all the time.
You need an exact location to arrest someone.
And we all know that exact locations can only be obtained through pizza box identification methods, or PBIM for short.
If it's a unique looking pizza box that is only sold in a certain city/town of Romania, then maybe.
So great, now you have the town and the surrounding towns.
What's next?
You would probably have to get with the Romanian police to figure out what they did.
If you want to keep talking about nonsense then let's look out their window while noticing the time of day that they are streaming. Then we can do "math" and figure the angle of the sun and what streets it could and couldn't be on. Then we can can call those pizza shops that deliver to those streets and ask if they had a recent order. Around the same time as the stream. Actually maybe just that last part would work....
