I said that they did. But there wasn't thousands of hours of video to review as a prior poster stated. They simply pulled a few minutes of footage from that 1 building. The guy shot and then bolted, there wasn't much video to review. Obviously the shooter was the guy crawling off of the roof. It didn't take a genius to figure that out.
Do you really think they didn’t review hours of home security footage in the area? Because parts of that have been released as well.

The same way,
I just wouldn't pretend that it required more than a minimal amount of effort and the intelligence of an 11 year old to say "Let's review the video of the guy crawling off of the building & post it to see if anyone recognizes him".

This is the dumbest shite I have read on here today. They had the guy in 48 hours.

They got him after he more or less broadcast a confession to a pile of folks and his father talked him into turning himself in. Not much police work in that but they probably find him in another 12 hours or so anyway.
What will be interesting is if they can refrain from breaking the law while prosecuting him and actually do so without all manner of shenanigans...he is going to be convicted either way but prosecutors can't resist the temptation to pull all manner of underhanded shite to get a conviction...

I say this with all sincerity……does someone help you get dressed in the morning?
The FBI undoubtedly reviewed doorbell cameras, traffic cameras, cameras from business in the area. Do you really believe they got one or two videos of him and said, “okay, that’s enough….we’ll just wait for someone to turn him in?” Do you think the only video footage gathered and reviewed is what’s been released to the public?
Again, I’ve seen very little “praising” of the FBI or local law enforcement for catching this guy. Most people capable of forming a coherent thought believe that they did exactly what they were expected to do. Nothing more, nothing less.

They posted a photo of the guy that was on the roof.
His dad recognized him and turned him in.
Wow, amazing !
The OP has 16 upvotes.
At least there are 16 people here who are capable of critical thinking.

What more would you want them to do in this situation?
Thats the question that begs answering....they would have caught up to him in a matter of hours most likely without him turning himself in. He was busy as a cat covering up shite on the internet more or less confessing when his father talked him into turning himself in. It was only a matter of time whether he turned himself in or not. Police work is slow and steady. I don't know what they could have done to find him any quicker.

What more did you want? Are you upset they didn't have the guy arrested within 30 minutes?

Nonsense.
Had he had enough sense to do a better job concealing his identity his father wouldn't have recognized him.
If he had criminal friends/family that were willing to hide him he would have been out of the area and in hiding and they probably never find him.
He was in custody so quickly because he was stupid & his father was honest.
It's like with the Unabomber.
Unabomber did his thing for decades and the Feds had no clue who he was, let alone where he was.
They only caught him because his brother recognized the verbiage in his manifesto that a newspaper published.
If not for his brother contacting the authorities they wouldn't have caught him.
The fact that his brother was intelligent enough to recognize the verbiage & decent enough to contact authorities is the reason they got him.
And the FBI was like "We always get our man"
They didn't do shite, it was his brother that "got their man".

Yeah, of all the things happening right now, this is an odd gripe
There’s not a realistic way this could have been prevented
After it happened they did everything necessary to catch him quickly
That and I haven’t seen anyone heaping a ton of praise anyway
Just a weird thing to be mad at

If the FBI prevented the shooting due to intelligence gathering, that would have been impressive.
Had a local cop spotted the guy on the roof and prevented the shooting, that would have been impressive.
But neither of those things happened.
Those dont make the news.

He messaged his roommate telling him he was going to do it.
If your argument is the FBI wouldn't have caught him if he would have been better at concealing his identity and not leaving any bread crumbs, I'm not sure you'll find anyone that disagrees. The fact of the matter is that it is very difficult to get away with something like this in this day and age. But I think you vastly underestimate the time and effort that goes into investigating something like this.

You don't think the FBI would gloat about preventing an assassination ?
You don't think the cop would hailed as a hero for spotting the shooter on the roof and preventing an assassination ?
Yeah, neither one of those things would have made the news

0% chance the Unabomber isn't identified very quickly in 2025 as opposed to 1978. What may have helped him was being a Luddite and not having a huge digital footprint, but everyone who interacts with civilization in some way is leaving a digital footprint.

I think some did see the shooter & gave the green light! I pray I'm wrong, I want to know about the guys behind him doing arm signals? WTF were they doing and looking at?
