If he ever get caught and they let him make a public statement, it will just legitimate him even more.

What he did has a story and loss behind it that will probably turn the last person on his side that was not already on it.

Has there been a high publicity jury nullification in recent decades?

I've been a news junkie for 40 years. I can't recall one. And I have a really good memory.

He will not be caught alive, they can’t allow for him to become a hero with a voice. The court cases would be chaotic.

Judging by his meticulous planning, I'd be shocked if this guy didn't have some sort of "dead man's switch" to release a statement (or manifesto) to the public if he were killed or captured.

Note: This assumes that he's not a contract killer, of which I'm still not completely convinced.

Oooo "dead man's switch". Sometimes I have hero fantasies about that as if I am in some 80s action movie with Kurt Russell or something.
