I'm a little surprised they're releasing that info. If he has access to media, knowing what they know could give him a bit of an edge.

 

I wish one of these guys would be bust out that we could actually root for.

Unfortunately, guys you can root for don't typically end up in lockdown.

At this point all I can hope for is that the little weasel doesn't hurt anybody out of desperation.

They need to release it so Longwood and, more importantly, the schools can re-open.

 

They also released a new picture of him clean shaven and a photo of the white transit van he stole.

 

White work van was a great choice. Easy to blend in with that. There are a million of them out there. Find a different one and swap plates with it and keep rolling. Odds are the van you swapped plates with won't even realize you did it until they get pulled over by 50 cops with guns out. How often do you actually take notice of your license plate? Particularly in a company vehicle.

 

I had suggested to friends that the cops plant a bait car or two near Longwood, like they do in Grand theft auto stings. Try to get him into one of those where they could them lock him down. Obviously they didn't do that but I think it would have at least been a solid tactic to catch a guy you know is looking for a ride.

I read it was a diary truck with a refrigeration unit on top... This dirt bag is bringing his A-Game... All the milk & cheese he can drink/eat.   Hope he's lactose intolerant!

It's a Transit van with a unit on top that he stole from a dairy farm.

Yep. Now he's in another vehicle but they don't know what and they have no idea where he is.

 

They also arrested his sister who, for some reason, they weren't tailing.

Interesting story from the psych side:

 

https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2023/09/13/danelo-cavalcante-captured-pennsylvania-brazil/

 

“...Of course the guy is a cruel killer,” Pires Bragança, a 41-year-old publicist in São Paulo, Brazil, said before authorities announced Cavalcante’s capture Wednesday. “But he is a guy who escaped and is giving crap to people who have money and power. I don’t want him to win, but I hope he gets a lot of attention.   ...

 

...Vera Iaconelli, a psychoanalyst in São Paulo, says the killer’s emergence as a kind of cult hero makes sense.

“We are more likely to identify ourselves with the weaker side of the story, the man alone against the institution with more resources, intelligence and weapons,” she said. “But in this case, he is not just the weak side of the story, he is Brazilian, a Latino, someone from South America. He represents a region that has historically suffered in the hands of the U.S.”

 

I guess you have to mesh that with the awfulness of his murdering ways vs. the awfulness of how others around the world perceive what the US does.
