Sounds like a desperate tactic to get perpetrator to make mistakes (ie, tickets bought hastily to leave country). Sudden plans to leave the country or travel domestically are often flagged by the feds for follow up. The practice was supposedly put on hold [1] but wouldn’t surprise me if it’s used in situations like this.
In my opinion, police wouldn’t bother releasing this statement. If it was real, investigation would continue and the next statement/story would be “we have the person in custody”.
I call bullshit.

That’s one theory, but also, remember that Eric Adams is kind of a moron.
One of the few explanations that makes sense to me is that the cops have identified him but aren’t saying anything so as not to tip him off, and Adams decided to make the announcement anyway, because him being the one to break the news is good for his career. And then figured with impeccable moron logic that as long as he doesn’t use the guy’s name, the guy will be none the wiser.
Why is Adams still free?
What a piece of shit.
He would have been a terrible Supreme Court justice based on the past 4 years. Wet blanket of a man.
Cops haven't found shit. I saw a video of a guy putting mask on their face that when on actually make you look like that person. Apparently can buy them on Amazon. How do we know that isn't a mask? This guy was smart. He didn't leave behind nothing he didn't want the cops to find. Hell the so called bottle they found. If you wacth the video or him disposing of it. He placed it in just a way that was for sure to be found.
Also two theories on the backpack. Either he left it on purpose, or my thinking is the cops planted it to make it look like they are solving this thing.
I think who ever this was is a professional or he planned it right and they will not catch this person. Unfortunately they will pin this on someone, and that someone will be dead.
Even if and its a big if they catch this person, no way will they allow this man to be put on trial. Allow his defense lawyer play up that he killed that fucking CEO because someone he loved died because the fucks at United Healthcare denying their claim. And if they had gotten care would have lived.
The backpack had monopoly money in it.
He left it.
He's fucking leagues beyond getting caught.
Homie rolled up on an ebike with a gun loaded with bullets engraved with messages. Iced this fuckface, tossed a backpack full of monopoly money to throw off the trail and make a statement, and dipped.
Seriously really? That is hilarious if true.

Thanks found posts on it. Fucking hilarious and awesome. May CEO trimble and worry at all times. This guy is awesome and hope he gets away free.
That would not be admissible at trial.
The purpose of a trial is to present or rebut evidence that he killed the CEO. Anything extraneous to that is not allowed.
The exception would be if he were trying an insanity defense, which almost never succeeds.
Please it will be brought up. It goes to motivate. Again rhey will not let this hero go to trial. Besides they won't get a jury to convict him.
They don't need to prove motive, and plenty of juries would convict.
It won't go to trial, but only because if he's caught then his best bet is to take a plea bargain.
So what you're saying is everybody who's financially capable right now should take a week off of work to go across the country or maybe even across country lines for absolutely no reason? Especially those of us living in and around the area of Manhattan?
