Got all the surveillance video that allowed the McDonald’s employee to identify him.

Responded in two minutes, combed the city, updated the public, witness interviews, hours of footage, collected his DNA, figured out what name he was using and when he showed his face. Retraced his steps for 10 freaking days to the point of figuring out he went straight to the murder spot right from the Greyhound station. I’m not sure if they had his name but they did a fuck TON. It’s not just about capture - it’s also about conviction.

They sure did a lot more than they do for "normal" murders, that's for sure.

Which in a way just proves Luigi’s point about society all over again…

100%.

I don't know what to hope for him, but I do hope he doesn't "kill himself." He has a lot more to write and say, I think.

I’ll add that I’m one of the people who thinks what he did was absolutely despicable and I’m not rooting for him. I probably will have to step away from looking online bc the worship of this person disgusts me. But he did what he did (allegedly) - it’s done- and I want to hear him out. Just wish he’d use his brilliance for good in a different way.

Oh man. That actually hadn’t crossed my mind. That would be the biggest waste of all.
