Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Maybe I’m just face-blind or being dense but the photos from the scene of the crime look like a different dude than the ginning hostel check in guy. The jackets and backpacks are different. Although people can have multiple jackets and backpacks. We don’t see much of the shooters face but the eyebrows look different. Although, people can pluck/shave eyebrows. I guess the happy hostel guy would have come forward and been like “WTF?” and “I have an alibi” if it wasn’t him?

The first back pack is white. The second one is very dark white almost black. The first jacket has white buttons, the second jacket has dark white buttons almost black. The first jacket has buttons, the second one looks like a special kind of button where the buttons on one side intermesh with the buttons on the otherwise in a zigzag pattern... I bet those have a name like zigzaper or zigper, who knows.

Doesn't look like anything to me.

[–] [email protected] 48 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Reminder even facial-recognition softwares & Geo-Location data HAVE made errors that put innocent people in jail

When people have different jackets and backpacks it not just to have the same jacket in different color. It’s to have a heavier jacket or different sized backpacks.

Also hostel guy eye look more wide set and his brow is more pronounced. Bridge of nose looks wider and deeper too.

To me it looks like the same person in different lighting conditions.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Agreed. What I don't get is that the backpack seems to be a very different color.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist (I don't think), but the backpack is the inconsistency that's interesting to me.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Easy enough to be using more than one bag.

But the front pockets on the jacket are different. The zipper pull is different.

The fabric on the left is crisper, looks plasticized, and is waterproofed, while the one on the right is fluffy and soft.

It's all very subtle, the pictures are low quality. It's likely not the same guy, but they're starving to have someone in custody.

The clothing color could be due to lighting. Remember the blue black dress meme? Multiple backpacks is too easy. So that's a non-issue.

That being said. Why isn't anyone considering that maybe the cops couldn't give a shit either. But they have to try because the money people said so.

[–] [email protected] 38 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

They'll happily jail an innocent person so they can avoid looking incompetent.

I don’t think lighting makes a light grey backpack into black. That’s a bit of a stretch. Especially considering the jacket on the left have no chest pockets. The one on the right has massive pocket flaps like they are the main character.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

thank you! where did he stash the other jacket, and if he did why would he pick one of same colour and type?

How do you explain the different pockets and completely different backpack, then?

They will find someone that roughly fits the description and he won't make it to jail alive... Case closed nothing to see here... Or something entirely different may happen..

How do they explain the bag changing colors?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

You can own more than one bag?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Guys planning a quick and carefully planned get away, so most likely traveling light with only what he needs. But yeah, of course he'll bring two bags.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

He's shown a high degree of planning so far. Bringing a decoy bag and being casual in front of CCTV in not-his-clothes seems on the money at the moment. As soon as I heard he made a beeline for central park I bet he has a change of outfit and strolled out looking totally different. Sure enough they've found a bag in the park they think was his. He's 2 to 3 steps ahead of them..

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago (10 children)

Why would he have two similar but different heavy jackets? 4D chess?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

I mean he's got half of lemmy convinced

What’s interesting is that the grey bag which he ditched is not cheap. Sure it was £250 when I checked.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I really don't know this guy has a long term plan. If I were to bed, his wife died after denied insurance. Or possibly a close family member or friend. The fact that he could afford health insurance or had it through an employer implies he probably had a decent job. So a person he was planning to grow old with is now dead, his plans for the future are ruined, probably doesn't care about an item that costs a few hundred dollars. Maybe he wants to see how long he can evade the cops, but something tells me if they ever do catch the actual murderer, he's not going to care much as in his eyes he lost his future when the person he cared about died.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Or he's terminal himself and pissed off

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago

Can't say personally seen any of the security footage but from the sounds of it this guy was mingling with the crowd and not drawing attention to himself as well as able to book it down the alleyway. It's not improbable that he's terminally ill himself, but it's hard for me to believe he'd be at a stage the doctor(s) said he was incurable/insurance denied him but still not far enough along it's not affecting him in anyway noticeable way.
