It wasn’t being marketed and sold as a meme product. It was being marketed and sold as critical safety equipment.

The odds of finding the real culprit after they’ve already eluded capture for 5+ days are extremely low.

Additionally, the evidence they supposedly found on him is extremely suspicious:

1. An untraceable gun that he allegedly kept on him the entire time even though the shooter discarded everything else.
2. A confession note that starts by talking about how much he respects the cops.

That doesn’t just sound like the sort of thing that would be planted on him… that sounds like the sort of thing that would be planted on him by an idiot.

Unless they have actual body cam footage of them catching him and finding the evidence, I have to assume he was framed.
