It was first reported he was a sex offender, and then I believe that statement was retracted.

There hasn’t been an actual retraction that I can find.

Just a removal of the info.

NYS is hiding something.

My bet is the perp is well know to the state and LE.

And never should have been on the streets.

Clearly, law enforcement understood that the perp was from the area, could blend into the area quite well and knew the family.

In 2023, you aren’t getting very far without a camera spotting you somewhere.

And for whatever technology that we know about, they’ve got stuff 20 years into the future that they are already using/testing.
I can bet that they have used/tested/testing face recognition technology into every day street cameras.

And I wouldnt be surprised if they have capabilities of picking up sounds from all sorts of places and most likely have AI that can literally distinguish with major accuracy, a unique voice fingerprint of every human and can track a good chunk of our days verbal utterances.

That sounds like precisely the investigative process that should have been deployed to identify and prosecute the 2020 election fraudsters!

Probably not brilliant to publish all the mistakes a kidnapper makes.

I'll bet we only get less than 50% of the story, including the tech they used. Seriously, they didn't have the house staked out with multiple cars in the area to follow any suspicious cars, as everyone knows criminals tend to revisit the scene of the crime or those involved.

Isn’t it amazing to realize that our crack law enforcement teams have not be able to crack the source of the coke left in the White House. Go figure . . .

Thank God for someone ignorant about fingerprints. Probably not brilliant to publish all the mistakes a kidnapper makes.

Fingerprints and cellphone pings. Seriously, you don't carry a tracking device (cell phone) if you're trying to avoid being found. Ring cameras are another source of surveillance that is often overlooked by stupid criminals.

Neither cops, nor journalists are usually on the high end of the IQ spectrum.

Apparently his brother, Nelson, was arrested for stalking and photographing young girls a few years ago.

Boy, this criminal was suffering from industrial strength stupidity. He might as well have just turned himself in.

How is anyone ignorant of fingerprints? There’s a FB story with a pic of his older brother, who was arrested recently for stalking and photographing young girls. Too much chlorine in that gene pool, methinks.
