Lawyers for the alleged killer of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson argue that their client’s constitutional rights are being violated by the government, while legal experts question Attorney General Pam Bondi’s death penalty pursuit. “I’ve been handling capital cases for over 20 years,” one tells VF, “and I’ve never seen anything like it.”
I didn’t know the science had come that far. I assumed anything useable would just go away unless it was instantly preserved.
And that’s a good thing to know about serial killers, but I guess it makes sense why most of those true crime things are in the far past.
well now the key is to leave no body or crime scene to be investigated… even then, cell phones are constantly tracked, surveillance cameras are everywhere…
one reason “the ice man” used to freeze his victims for months before dumping the body… without a proper time of death it’s hard to find him on cameras. (and most places don’t keep security footage for too long).
With this chief shooting, the crime scene was immediately preserved… cops were called immediately.
Also the NYPD has a police force larger than many countries armies.
another scary thing with DNA is if they don’t have you on record, they have some cousin on record and will then just investigate everyone related to them and collect their DNA from trash and stuff….
of course, that’s only if you kill someone rich or a white girl or someone “important” enough….
I guarantee they’re not collecting dna from shell casings after drive-by shootings in poor neighborhoods….
