If the gunman killed a homeless person in the same way the cops would have said “huh, weird” and sent the case files straight to the shredder.

The first 48 hours is an extremely important window to catch the guy and the reason that that time frame is so important is that after 48 hours, uh, they *give up* on solving that murder

Probably the wrong place to say this, but the police response to this isn't because of who he is, it's because of the motive. The motive is destabilizing.

If a CEO was killed during a mugging, it would be second page news for a day.
