Oh believe me, I'm fully aware of the underlying causes for the public's reaction here.

Yeah I can see how the quote is super misleading.
I'm going to extra hell for laughing at this.
I think you're probably misinterpreting the quote. Here's the reporting on this from the NYT:
Mayor Eric Adams said Friday morning that the investigation was “on the right track.” In an interview on Spectrum News NY1, the mayor added: “This person was fully masked, and we used good old-fashioned police work to come up with the picture you have.”
I think what the mayor is saying here is that because the alleged killer was masked, the cops actually had to do some detective work, canvas door-to-door maybe, pull security footage, that sort of thing. It wasn't just a case of sitting back and running facial recognition on the killer like something outta CSI.
Unless you're thinking of a different quote.
That sounds quite plausible...
I'm going to assume we all saw those security camera photos and immediately thought of the Drake meme. Because you and I couldn't have been the only ones...
Yeah, I mirrored it to make the Drake meme format work. But my question is why the police left a mouse cursor in their security camera photo? Here it is in the original: https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/ace/standard/800/cpsprodpb/vivo/live/images/2024/12/5/30d31dc7-3902-4f14-aa0f-f6ba39f3a79d.jpg.webp
It's like the old saying, "If you see a child stealing food, no you didn't."
He was likely in New York for days before the shooting. Presumably not wearing the same clothes the whole time.
I didn't see nuthin'.
Except hot dogs are cured meat which is terrible for you.
