And I think it was intentional because it was a further weaponization of law enforcement.

So when you match up the suspect's height...

and physical appearance with things like a license plate reader that attributes to him and further information such as cell phone pings, you're getting into a very small circle of people that it could be.

And once we're able to execute law enforcement process and search warrants over these last few months, we were able to produce

what he bought where he bought it when he bought it and the history of buying it and how often he bought it and remember this kid was 25 years old at the time of the incident he's now 30 years old there's a five-year history of information that the fbi has to go through to make sure we've been captured all the information for our prosecuting partners

You know, look, this year alone, this FBI has arrested 25,000 violent felons.

That's twice as many from last year, 110% increase, literally.

And if you look across all those cases and all those criminals, they vary in how they have their operational security, whether it's good, bad, or in between.

So it's almost impossible to decipher exactly every single piece of information that led this individual to say, I'll use my credit card on this day, but I'll use cash on the next day.

We'll try to develop that out so we can provide the public with a clear picture.

But it's not unusual to have mixed operational security, really good on one day and then maybe a slip up on the next day.

Big time.

five years passed five years have passed so this individual was basically out there saying i got away with it i mean yeah he's not he's not a he's not a stupid person and he sees the news and he sees the videos and he sees the commentary on social media and on tv and he's probably watching it saying okay maybe i'm uh maybe i'm off the hook we don't know the definitive answer

This is what FBI agents do.

When you put them out in the field to investigate crimes, this is what they're trained to do.

They go out to the community.

They go out to the stores.

They go out and use video surveillance.

They go out and say, hey, this is a local community in Northern Virginia that this individual supposedly resided in for a period of time.

Do you know this guy?
