He also apparently gave cops the same fake ID he used at the hostel, despite having four fake IDs. My only guess is the initial escape was to keep the story alive for a week, then he either expected to be caught eventually or intentionally allowed himself to be caught so he could revitalize it and possibly start making public statements.

A better way to do that would be to take some pictures with his phone of the dead CEO before taking off on his bike, and then posting them as verification photos on a 4chan thread or something. But yea this is all just speculation. It's just odd.

Yeah couple of options here:

  • he's the guy but is irrational, mentally whatever and not the calculated genius the online hype has built him up to be
  • he's the guy and intentionally got himself caught / planned to give himself up for a variety of possible reasons (acting as a public figure, mental instability, guilt, sense of righteousness/justice idk)
  • he's not the guy and the information on the gun and ID is false or misrepresented
  • he's not the guy but a whole slew of planted evidence, fake/exaggerated reporting etc make him out to be the guy, which imo seems like the most conspiracy-nutty take. not saying it's not possible but it seems the least likely.

Maybe he is betting on the broken justice system and the jury to find him „not guilty“.
