As we reported earlier, police confirmed there were words on three shell casings found at the scene of the fatal shooting of Brian Thompson.

The BBC’s US partner CBS News is now reporting that the words - “deny”, “defend” and “depose” - were meticulously written, not etched, onto the casings, according to a source briefed on the investigation.

    I’m not trying to catch him, I think he outsmarted them.

      they’ll catch him if he made enough mistakes and this is definitely a big one; some asshat can see this comment and try to help get him arrested.

        New York police department has a lot more resources than a random Lemmy poster. I assure you they are aware of this without someone needing to bring their attention to it.

          every little bit helps and there’s no reason to aid them in this case; he did the right thing given our circumstances.

        That dude is in another country by now. He seemed to be very thorough.
