    I mean they say this is the guy they’re looking for…but is it?? I don’t recognize him at all. Also he doesn’t seem to have that fancy backpack in between pictures. This leads me to believe that these are 2 separate dudes. Clothing colors are also different.

    Just pointing out that had it been an average Joe who got assassinated and we had a clear picture of the killer’s face we wouldn’t even have heard about it on the news. Now they want everyone to look for him.

      To be fair, a c level assassination is news, whereas a murder in a big city is not. It’s not about the chicken, but the seasoning and presentation, young chef.

      I like thinking he was avenging some family member(s) who died due to claim denials, or something along those lines. If we find out he’s some Qanon weirdo operating on some conspiracy about endrinochrome or whatever, it’s really going to dampen the vibes.

        I sincerely hope he was. I hope it felt really good. I collected a mountain of screenshots from Facebook today of people who had lifesaving claims denied by them, and it’s so shocking written out even though of course it isn’t.

    Guy on the bottom has a mouse cursor over him so it’s obvious the pic is AI. Can’t prove the top pic isn’t also AI. These pics tell me nothing…this guy probably doesn’t even exist.

      I’m going to assume we all saw those security camera photos and immediately thought of the Drake meme. Because you and I couldn’t have been the only ones…

    First they use our help to search sunken rich people, now they want our help to find rich people killers.

    The mayor of New York City literally said in an interview that the guy was masked the whole time and the face pictures were generated using “police techniques”. Why is no one talking about this???

      I think you’re probably misinterpreting the quote. Here’s the reporting on this from the NYT:

      Mayor Eric Adams said Friday morning that the investigation was “on the right track.” In an interview on Spectrum News NY1, the mayor added: “This person was fully masked, and we used good old-fashioned police work to come up with the picture you have.”

      I think what the mayor is saying here is that because the alleged killer was masked, the cops actually had to do some detective work, canvas door-to-door maybe, pull security footage, that sort of thing. It wasn’t just a case of sitting back and running facial recognition on the killer like something outta CSI.

      Unless you’re thinking of a different quote.

        That was the quote. Thanks, I really did not understand that. I mean, if the guy was “fully masked”, they wouldn’t have a face shot. He should have said he was “mostly masked”.

      I mean yeah he’s charming but that ain’t the guy. Different jacket, different bag.
