Comment on Does anyone else think the NYPD photos of the UHC CEO shooting suspect don’t match?

  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…

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

      It’s cold, need something. “No jacket” would call attention. Gotta both be pretty nondescript not to call attention too, no hot pink or sports teams (maybe yankees in the city, but if he leaves NYC nondescript is better.)

      We should know within a day because if flirty Starbucks guy isn’t him then that person will almost certainly come forward to get removed from investigation.

        Why? Seems safer to just keep your head down. He didn’t do anything, why should he let the cops try to pin it on him?

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

    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.

      Or he’s terminal himself and pissed off

        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.
