The fact that each picture of him has been someone different doesn't give me a lot of faith they know his name lmao.

I don't get what the circle is showing.

[–] Plum@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I have no idea. I stole the photo from a duckduckgo image search, which is an awful way to do things.

[–] tetris11@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

you're a bad person and you should feel bad

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 25 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, that one is officially not from him.

And the police has been officially never wrong about it, and has been looking for that one guy to interrogate only, maybe ask where he brought his jacket or something like that.

Here's a better one. NYPD doesn't know what the fuck they're after.

[–] LiveLM@lemmy.zip 10 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

So did this guy have a team of decoys running around with him or did the stars align to explicitly fuck that CEO over? lmao

[–] Plum@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago

My take is that the cops fed raw surveillance data into their trusty Crime Computer and fully trusted the result. It's a super common silhouette when the daily high temp is in the 30s. Lol.

It's New York. That look is probably very common. Hence why our hero chose it as a disguise.

Also he probably quickly changed his clothes in central park. So a possible thing is that he also changed his hoodie and had a different mask.

But having four different coats? Hard to believe.

But having four different coats? Hard to believe.

It wasn't a man, it was 3 kobolds in a trenchcoat, so it's perfectly plausible

With the goblins in kahoots! My lord we need to set a bountry of 30 gold pieces! Fetch the greatest team consisting of a mage, a fighter, a thief, and some comic relief buffoon who will end up saving the day despite his uselessness throughout the journey up to that point!

And picking 4 jackets that look similar enough for some dumb ai to confuse?

[–] frezik@midwest.social 1 points 1 week ago

Did they ask an AI "are these pictures of the same person?" and went with whatever it said?

[–] Nanook@lemm.ee 11 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah there’s also one from within a bank, but it’s totally a different person

[–] henfredemars@infosec.pub 51 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I feel like that's possibly a prelude to setting up a scapegoat. You can't let people think he got away with it.

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 17 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I think that’s entirely possible. If this guy gets away Scott free and people know he did? Expect more attempts at CEO murder.

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 34 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

One t in scot-free.

From Scotland, where there are 3 possible verdicts to a murder trial:

Guilty

Not Guilty

Not Proven

In the 3rd instance, we may or may not all know you did it, but the State couldn't prove their case, so you get away scot-free.

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 18 points 2 weeks ago

Oh no shit eh? I was actually wondering as I typed that what the proper way to spell it was and where it came from. Thanks man!

[–] hark@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

According to this, it had originally literally meant "exempt from royal tax": https://www.etymonline.com/word/scot-free#etymonline_v_22952
