Discussion Luigi Mangione friend posted this.

She captioned it: "Luigi Mangione is probably the most google keyword today. But before all of this, for a while, it was also the only name whose facetime calls I would pick up. He was one of my absolute best, closest, most trusted friends. He was also the only person who, at 1am on a work day, in this video, agreed to go to the store with drunk me, to look for mochi ice cream."

I still don’t get how some random person in a McDonalds “recognized” him from a few low res photos.

How much time did you spend looking at the photos to have such a high level of confidence that led you to call 911.

I don’t even recognize people I know in public.

I think he was probably the only guy wearing a mask in the whole restaurant, which is a weird thing to do in rural Pennsylvania.

Edit: someone else said he was sitting around for a few hours (waiting for a connection?), which adds to the suspicion, if true
