Sounds like a desperate tactic to get perpetrator to make mistakes (ie, tickets bought hastily to leave country). Sudden plans to leave the country or travel domestically are often flagged by the feds for follow up. The practice was supposedly put on hold [1] but wouldn’t surprise me if it’s used in situations like this.
In my opinion, police wouldn’t bother releasing this statement. If it was real, investigation would continue and the next statement/story would be “we have the person in custody”.
I call bullshit.

That’s one theory, but also, remember that Eric Adams is kind of a moron.
One of the few explanations that makes sense to me is that the cops have identified him but aren’t saying anything so as not to tip him off, and Adams decided to make the announcement anyway, because him being the one to break the news is good for his career. And then figured with impeccable moron logic that as long as he doesn’t use the guy’s name, the guy will be none the wiser.
Why is Adams still free?
What a piece of shit.
Lol
Merrick Garland
Same one in charge with investigating trump
Same fucking bullshit
He would have been a terrible Supreme Court justice based on the past 4 years. Wet blanket of a man.
Eh...
A useless piece of shit that does nothing is still somewhat of a better justice than a justice that tries to tear down democracy.
Like just a teeny tiny bit less bad.
Cops haven't found shit. I saw a video of a guy putting mask on their face that when on actually make you look like that person. Apparently can buy them on Amazon. How do we know that isn't a mask? This guy was smart. He didn't leave behind nothing he didn't want the cops to find. Hell the so called bottle they found. If you wacth the video or him disposing of it. He placed it in just a way that was for sure to be found.
Also two theories on the backpack. Either he left it on purpose, or my thinking is the cops planted it to make it look like they are solving this thing.
I think who ever this was is a professional or he planned it right and they will not catch this person. Unfortunately they will pin this on someone, and that someone will be dead.
Even if and its a big if they catch this person, no way will they allow this man to be put on trial. Allow his defense lawyer play up that he killed that fucking CEO because someone he loved died because the fucks at United Healthcare denying their claim. And if they had gotten care would have lived.
That would not be admissible at trial.
The purpose of a trial is to present or rebut evidence that he killed the CEO. Anything extraneous to that is not allowed.
The exception would be if he were trying an insanity defense, which almost never succeeds.
Please it will be brought up. It goes to motivate. Again rhey will not let this hero go to trial. Besides they won't get a jury to convict him.
They don't need to prove motive, and plenty of juries would convict.
It won't go to trial, but only because if he's caught then his best bet is to take a plea bargain.
Spoilers for Death Note (the Anime):
spoiler
In Death Note, L had the police announce that they sent thousands of FBI agents into Japan to find Kira, and show it on TV when they knew Yagami Light was watching. There were no such thing as thousands of FBI agents, it was a bluff, and Yagami Light also predicted it and remained calm. This could be a similar bluff.(Note: This is not to compare Yagami Light to the NYC John Wick, Yamami Light has (arguably) way more unethical acts than our NYC John Wick.)
