This conspiracy theory doesn't make any sense to me. All the "real killer" would have to do would be to kill someone else and the entire deception would fail.

Or be happy they know they got away with it.

But the cops wouldn't know that. Why would they take the gamble that their entire ruse could easily be undone? Again, it doesn't make sense to me.

Cops: "That's just a copycat/nutjob."

Who looks like the guy in the original images?

I mean if we're going to go all crazy conspiracy, maybe they gave Mangione super fast plastic surgery too?

Let's hope there are a lot of "real killers" out there waiting for their chance.

"So Luigi has a copycat eh? This is why the people who idolize Mangione are the problem! Never forget Bob Thomas or whatever that fucker's name was."

A copycat who looks just like the person in the first images?

Again, this just doesn't make sense to me.

Is this one of those "who are you going to believe, me or your own eyes" situations?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

I'm not the first to point out that the guy in the security camera footage isn't even the same skintone as Luigi

[–] [email protected] -1 points 23 hours ago

Do you think they white balance security cameras every time they turn them on? Because you need to do that to try to get accurate colour.
