      Sounds like little risk as far as this alleged crime goes, if there’s any semen on the scene, it’s likely mine.

      He didn’t murder anyone. He’s clearly just someone the cops framed. Who walks around with a confession in their backpack after murder?

        Someone who is a perfect example of the “I didn’t think I’d get this far” meme. For you to believe he’s a scapegoat, you also have to believe that the cops found a guy who looks like the killer, wore the same clothes as the killer, was in the same area as the killer, and had motive to kill the ceo of uhc basically within hours of the murder, because that’s when the media started running the pictures from the hostel. The, this hypercompetent police force who found a perfect patsy in no time lets him float in the wind for 5 days for… No reason.

        There’s a lot of shady elements, this is not one of them.

        I understand why he did what he did as much as anyone but this conspiratorial thinking annoys me.

        Maybe someone who sees the online reaction to their action and expects to become a martyr when found carries a confession with them?

        Police in the US is beyond fucked up but if this is a cover up I’ll eat my shoes

    Not a legal expert, but sounds to me the entire case has been mishandled and all charges are to be dropped immediately.

    It’s surprising it worked. It’s a really well-known tactic, owed to being on every cop show ever. Pretty sure it’s totally above-board, though. Anything you leave behind (trash, crumbs, maybe a bit of saliva) is fair game. Unfortunate.

    If you’re arrested for a felony in CO you have your DNA collected via swab. Is that not standard? They don’t do that in PA?
