Does anyone else think the NYPD photos of the UHC CEO shooting suspect don’t match?

Maybe I’m just face-blind or being dense but the photos from the scene of the crime look like a different dude than the ginning hostel check in guy. The jackets and backpacks are different. Although people can have multiple jackets and backpacks. We don’t see much of the shooters face but the eyebrows look different. Although, people can pluck/shave eyebrows. I guess the happy hostel guy would have come forward and been like “WTF?” and “I have an alibi” if it wasn’t him?

  • Yeah the shooter had something more like a rain jacket. But he may have put on the rain jacket that he wasn't wearing earlier when going out to shoot the guy. Backpack is different, but that may have been stashed in the park.

    But what seems odd to me is that this whole thing was obviously premeditated, but a guy that's intent on murder is smiling and chatting up the receptionist? I guess that's possible, but something that further suggests that it's a different dude.

    We really only have the top half of the faces looking somewhat similar in a couple of grainy images. It's plausible it's the same guy, but given the information we have, it's more likely not. But we don't have all the information, so who knows?

  • I thought the same thing. They have more video footage and we are seeing only 2 stills from it, but the coats are definitely different. But the hostel footage was from when he was checking in days earlier than the day of the shooting.
