The manhunt for the suspect who killed UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson has now entered its fourth day as authorities learn more about his movements before the attack.
Pretty sure the 48 hours was about missing people. Generally because it’s hard to keep a person restrained and alive for an extended period, it’s easier to just dispose of them and try to take any ransom demanded anyway.
First 48 is also a show about murder detectives working a case within the first 2 days after the murder. The likelihood of the case going cold after the first 48 hours goes up exponentially the longer the file stays open.
This goes up further, I assume, if it’s likely the killer has fled across state and potentially national borders. It’s been 72 hours - given that sort of headstart, a fake ID or two, and a willingness to burn cash on travel, I could be anywhere I damn well pleased.
But it’s the same as if your wallet stays lost for 48 hours. It’s not because you didn’t look hard enough, it’s because it’s lost enough that you weren’t able to find it yet, and odds are you aren’t going to.
Leave the NYPD alone, do you know how hard it is to murder minorities over fare skipping? And now you expect them to do actual detective work? They don’t even get to use all that fancy military equipment!
Mostly the amount of floundering NYPD’s doing. I don’t know if they’re just kicking back letting them squirm because they’re pissed at NYPD or if it’s because of it being just a guy shooting a guy in New York, but if they were engaged I would have expected the white house to be talking about it.
Also, since it may not have been clear, I’m counting the FBI as cops in this, not as alphabet boys a.k.a. the US Intelligence apparatus.
Considering the history of alphabet orgs performing operations for the benefit of the wealthy few and corporations, I’d imagine they care quite a bit about this, especially considering how many slightly left leaning democracies in South and Central America were toppled by the CIA.
Besides being a folk hero this man also exposed just how shiti police is actually their jobs if the person is skilled and well prepared.
This guy entered NYC anon, did charity work for the US working class, existed anon.
Police along with alphabet boys are sitting with dicks in their hands drip feeding media this idiotic stories that get more silly as time progresses.
Didn’t they have a TV show about how you need to catch the perp within 48 hours or otherwise it is very unlikely yo be easily solved?

Prior to the surveillance state, cops solved a minuscule amount of actual crimes. Now they solve a less minuscule amount of crimes.
There’s no way the alphabet boys give a shit about this
You sure about that?

The FBI are just federal cops, I don’t count them as part of the intelligence apparatus
what’s your reasoning for this take?

The FBI is absolutely part of the intelligence alphabet.
Just like FaceBook Inc. Ain’t either.
