I think he is the guy (not that it’s a bad thing).

The “anonymous tip” that lead to his capture was rather “illegal surveillance/technology the plebs don’t need to know about”. And they found the gun and manifesto in NY and planted it on him to make the case go smoother.

I honestly think they fucked up massively, thus the endless delays of the trial. In a high profile case like this, if the evidence was solid, they would have already crucified him.

I hope for a mistrial or acquittal, maybe it will be the final spark that ignites change in the US, and later the world, leading to the death of neoliberal capitalism.

Sounds like a much more complex reason than just incompetence, so both Occam's razor and Hanlons razor would support incompetence rather than a conspiracy

And if that conspiracy was true, why would they send a rookie cop?
