    I feel like there is hokey in how they caught him. Its still odd that he was “reported by a mcdonalds worker” that doesn’t seem to exist.

        Media crews can easily isolate both the mcdonalds in question and anyone working there. 911 calls are usually recorded. None of that info hit the public afaik.

            I’m not sure thats ever stopped the media before. The case gets eyeballs, sells ads. Its not like they’re putting people in witness protection for this.

            The real problem here is I think there wasn’t a call. I suspect he got caught in some kind of illegal surveillance net.

              The regular media often declines to publish such information. The government often keeps such info private. The fact that tabloids haven’t dug it up doesn’t make it real.
