Tinfoil hat time: with the police looking increasingly incompetent with no suspect or leads, the first person apprehended who vaguely resembles the shooter is provided with a free ghost gun, fake ID, and manifesto. It’s all just too “slam dunk” perfect for me to not question it.
I don’t think that’s true at all. If anything, the perception that body cameras make the evidence found more solid actually increases the chances that evidence will be planted.
Multiple times now we have seen that these cameras do not record continuously. They have triggers like when the cop pulls a gun or shoots but otherwise need to be manually activated. And a lot of the time the cop knows the camera and will plant evidence before pretending to “discover” it on tape.
And we’re not talking about some random stop here. If this were to be a cover up type thing, it’d be much more carefully done. I mean not finding this guy would both embarrass police to an extreme degree and also encourage other people to do this stuff.
Whatever you do, do not underestimate the fact that elites want police to keep them safe and if some random person has to take the fall so they can say they caught someone, that’s absolutely what they’ll do.
I thought so too, but if that’s the case, why would they have him “Found” on a McD’s after a call from a bystander?*
Doesn’t really make the cops look competent, now does it?
*Bystander or McD employee? The news sources seem conflicted on this…

IIRC Baltimore got caught that way twice. I’m too lazy to google the other incident now though.

The local police responded and are holding the suspect for NYPD while they travel to interview the suspect.
Imagine being that cop and you know you are too stupid for the job haha
