Oh you mean the rookie cop who had been on the job for ~6 months?
DOUBT
To not think about stuff is, normally, nothing to brag about.
It is the kind of quality that will get you far, as a cop, I imagine. that, and not asking too many questions.
He’s my guy ❤️
Are they trying to imply that they actually thought about it once? I mean they're cops... how can we be expected to believe that they actually thought?
Snitches get stitches. Let’s root for the good guy.
FREE LUIGI!
(Which is really just fun to say)
Good luck finding 12 people in NYC that haven't already formed an opinion about this trial.
P.S., if you get called for this, lie through your fucking teeth until you are on the jury.
This kid doesn't go to fucking jail God dammit.
So it keeps going back and forth on if it was a customer or an employee that ratted our our hero
A customer informed an employee who then called police. Two class traitors.
I hope they feel very stupid. They probably had no idea what was really going on. Helping catch a killer probably felt good in the moment, but finding out the person who died was basically a serial killer would shame me for life.
Kinda crazy that the biggest stories of the last 2 years were rich people dying...
Maybe its exponential?
One can hope.
They'll kill him. They'll set an example... only for him to become a martyr. Or one can hope, anyways.
I suspect that, for exactly that reason, they'll just lock him up and try to forget about him.
They'll make a documentary about him, where the overriding theme is that we all have something to lose. in a few years, maybe.
More like they "find" discord chat and some cociane to ruin his image.
