Do you remember how quickly the FBI released footage of Luigi shooting that CEO? Why are they not releasing any footage of this person?
You know, I'll be honest. I've always assumed he definitely shot that CEO. But, I also assumed he probably wasn't in his right state of mind when he did bc of his health issues, and definitely didn't deserve the threats of death penalty.
This:
now has me questioning if maybe he was actually just set up as a patsy the whole time.
They'll say that it's because they want to exhaust other leads before seeking the public's help in identifying by face. They claim to have "good video footage."
But probably they don't want to allow the shooter to be lionized the way Luigi was. Not releasing images now only puts that off, though, doesn't prevent it entirely.
Since I was around 10 years old, there has always been some shooting on some campus somewhere in the U.S. on an increasingly frequent basis. I seriously cannot remember any campus shooting where a suspect just fired a single fatal shot or just walked away without getting caught.
There are established protocols that U.S. campuses have in place, not out of the kindness of their own heart, but for their own liability, that should have kept a suspect from just walking off with the crowd.
This is weird as fuck.
Their current approach has also led to them detaining the wrong person at least twice.
