    Less hints more links my guy! Strong “parallel construction” vibes but I haven’t seen anything real solid yet and like to think I’m reasonably tuned in

      Literally the first link from searching “luigi McDonald’s”

      Authorities said a customer in the restaurant thought he matched the description of the suspect in Thompson’s killing and notified an employee, who called 911.

      https://www.newsweek.com/mcdonalds-worker-luigi-mangione-private-security-1999217

      That customer was almost certainly law enforcement, they just needed a scapegoat to call in the tip because they couldn’t say how they found him.

      The McDonald’s worker had no idea, that’s why their call was basically: “some guy said another guy is dangerous and wanted by police, I don’t know who”.

      And cops immediately swarmed and singled out Luigi.

      You may believe you’re “reasonably tuned in” but this information was out within like 24 hrs of his arrest everywhere.

        That link says absolutely nothing about the source of the “tip”, you’re kinda being a prick about this without providing the substance that makes people put up with that. We’re even on the same side of this very specific niche case and you put more effort into some weak dunks than sharing info and downvoted me. Fuck off dude

          That link says absolutely nothing about the source of the “tip"

          Because it originated from an anonymous source…

          Someone that was aware of who Luigi is and the bounty, wanted to turn him in…

          But didn’t take the two seconds to ensure a call was made, instead they told someone else to call and just left.

          Bro, if you can’t logic this out, and you only want help when it’s sugar coated…

          Just block me.

          Otherwise I’m cool to keep answering you’re questions, but this is standard delivery.

            We’ve come to similar conclusions, I asked for a link because the confidence of your presentation made me think you had a good source. Instead of arming me with evidence, all this conversation has provided is arrogant, childish abuse. If you had something worth sharing you could just share it, “bro”
