Maybe I’m just face-blind or being dense but the photos from the scene of the crime look like a different dude than the ginning hostel check in guy. The jackets and backpacks are different. Although people can have multiple jackets and backpacks. We don’t see much of the shooters face but the eyebrows look different. Although, people can pluck/shave eyebrows. I guess the happy hostel guy would have come forward and been like “WTF?” and “I have an alibi” if it wasn’t him?
No breast pockets on the shooter’s jacket and there’s no way your white balance is going to be so off that a white backpack becomes black
you are aware that things still exist when you can’t see them, like breast pockets of someone with their back turned to you?
Yes, but are you blind to the top left picture?
