A law enforcement source told our sister station, ABC7 Eyewitness News in New York, that the suspect’s unmasked smile came as he flirted with the front desk clerk who checked him into the hostel, and encouraged him to drop the mask so she could see his smile. The suspect obliged, pulling his mask down long enough for the surveillance camera to capture his face.
Seems to me that this investigation is way over budget.
Seems like they should delay and deny an investigation and then defend that stance as a cost saving measure.
Yeah, New York has real problems.
