Wow dude. Never seen that video, and I think your description is enough for me to never want to.

I watched recently also and you made a lot of good points. I also wondered who mentioned it was Luka to the group. I'm guessing it was someone other than Luka, although he's obviously an attention seeker so who knows?
I agree that the internet mob can be a scary thing and the power of collective intelligence can be powerful.

If that was their point, and their only point of evidence was an example where they didn’t get caught that way, means they did a poor job showing their point

I think they DID catch the guy. They had him dead to rights and the police they contacted dropped the ball on him.
What did they have?
What did they get besides what someone (likely Luka himself) was feeding them?
Cops didn’t drop the ball on shite. One of the few cases in these documentaries that I can say that for

It was most likely Luka himself.

Well as I said before, the Luka case on its own merits was captivating. Maybe there aren't any cases that were solved by message board detectives that would've made for good TV. Redditors figuring out which McDonald's someone took a shite on the grill at isn't as interesting.

That’s fine but that’s not the narrative perspective they framed the documentary as

Then don’t base your documentary around internet sleuths when in fact they didn’t really do anything

Video if him mutilating small animals. Did you miss the part where that's what started this whole thing?

It lead to nothing. And even that was posted by him.
They had nothing to do with him being caught.

I agree that internet people with lots of time on their hands can do some incredible things. Best example recently of this was when Shia LeBouef was planting that flag and people kept finding it and taking it down...they were analyzing flight patterns from the feed and shite like that.
However, this doc in particular was geared toward the internet people actually doing something, when in actuality they didn't do very much. Or scratch that, they did, just not a lot of things on their own that were super helpful. Yes, they analyzed shite, but all of it was fed to them by (likely) the killer himself toying with them. There was very little actual discovery done by them. And I mean, the title is "Don't frick With Cats." That was the whole mantra of that internet lady. They were presented as these whiz detectives, when they actually didn't accomplish much.
But again, that doesn't mean that internet groups can't accomplish anything. It's just that's what the doc seemed to be trying to portray...poorly.
Great doc though.

Thank you
It was entertaining as a doc, but the further away from it I get, the worse it ages. Certainly not on the level of other recent docs that have been put out

Maybe not, but that’s because before the murder both the “crimes” and the jurisdiction(s) they were committed were extremely fuzzy. Which is kind of scary, tbh.
But they certainly helped with providing a framework for the motive and providing backstory on who the dude actually was. I don’t really see how that can be argued. The energy you’ve put into this crusade to discount their role in this is a bit strange, tbh. But whatever.
I had a theory when watching that was somewhat confirmed upon listening to a podcast about him. Dude’s going bald was really fricking him up mentally. Obviously he was super fricked up regardless, but he’s such a narcissist whose entire self-worth was tied to his looks and going bald was fricking with him big time. I honestly think it sped up his psychopathy.

It led to cops bungling a gift-wrapped case and causing someone to lose his life.

What evidence did they have that would’ve stuck?
“Hey ya officer, we have this video and based on some random person on the Internet we believe it was this guy and due to some research we have narrowed down his location to either Canada, the US, or France. So go arrest him now please.”

Finally watched this and thought it kind of sucked. The internet nerds were annoying, and didn’t do anything really. The main women was flat out painful to listen to. Luka’s mom is completely insane. The internet nerds got a depressed dude to kill himself. Isn’t that a crime these days?
Really just seemed like a bunch of losers with nothing better to do patting themselves on the back for something they didn’t actually do. The only real information all their time and effort got them came directly from Luka straight up giving them information just to mess with them.
The ending was embarrassing. So the woman who actually played a part in making a narcissistic killer keep upping his violence tells people watching a documentary about the killer a decade after the crimes that it’s our fault? I don’t watch videos like that. The main guy nerd admitted to watching a video of a man being slaughtered more than 20 times.
These people just needed something to make them feel important. Turns out what made them feel important was bullying a depressed man into suicide, watching snuff films, and fueling the ego of a narcissistic, violent psychopath. So good job nerds.
