So how did they catch him?
Was it the thousands of hours of NYPD overtime, for cops walking around central park? No.
Was it Sherlock Holmes style detective work? No.
Someone dropped a dime on him, while he was eating his McMuffin.
And he conveniently had the weapon and his manifesto on him.

All the CSI is just to tie the story together:
* This ID is the one used to check into the hostel
* This silenced pistol matches the one that made these spent shell casings found at the scene
* This manifesto gives motive
If he had gotten rid of that evidence, it would be harder to make a case.

Today in justice:
* They did find the man that killed the Healthcare CEO. Because they made the whole country "be on look out" (BOLO) for him.
* They didn't find the man that killed an immigrant on the same day. No info shared.
* The man that choked a Black man to death was found "not guilty"

@aburka@hachyderm.io@mekkaokereke would love to understand what happened in that jury room, as they hung on manslaughter, got that dismissed, and then acquitted on the lesser charge anyway. (I guess jury nullification isn't as rare as I thought.)
I know, I know -- racism! But the killing happened in front of witnesses, on video. Did jurors come out and say to each other, "well he was black so I'm voting to acquit"? I just don't see how else you get there in a case as open-and-shut as this one.
@aburka @mekkaokereke These days? It would not be surprising at all. This is the time of monsters.
