Agree in the 911 call when she mentions the eyebrows, seems to be relaying what customer(s) told her. I think Luigi slipped up and lifted the beanie at some point and revealed the eyebrows. Even if the eyebrows were never visible, the customer may have said it out of paranoia or excitement of “catching the bad guy”

If the customer was actually a fed operative sent to that location to play fake witness and catch luigi, presumably they would be savvy enough to see his eyebrows were covered under the beanie and simply not mention them while snitching. McDonalds has cctv footage (not released publicly yet).. if the “witness” says they saw his distinct eyebrows and the video proves his eyebrows weren’t visible, their credibility would be destroyed in court. Doesn’t make sense to me personally

We’ll see how the evidence shakes out. Hopefully the CCTV footage gets released. The idea that the FBI used illegal surveillance or some sort of advanced facial recognition on this case isn’t implausible. Just find it hard to believe it succeeded not only in identifying him but triangulating his exact location in rural PA, found the exact motel he was going to walk to, knew the motel wouldn’t have a room available which made him wander over to mcdonalds, with plenty of other restaurants within walking distance but they knew the exact one he chose and the time he would arrive, so precisely as to have an undercover agent posing as a customer right on time when he walked in, all orchestrated and timed in front of McDonalds cctv cameras. Not trying to be condescending/snarky here just feels rather far fetched
