Can someone please explain to me the purpose of the fake accounts that the animal rights groups created? I've read over and over that some of the accounts may have been faked by them in order to draw LM out. I just don't understand the thought process...
For example... Someone posts videos of themselves killing kittens. Animal rights group link it to LM... they then proceed to make tons of fake accounts with photos, comments etc. LM has posts on his website about people imitating him and saying things that aren't true, etc. So now, during this case, it's hard to tell what is LM and what is an LM imposter. Is there any way that the people from that group, who use this forum, can confirm which one's belong to them, and which ones are real? Also, back to my original question, explain the reasoning for this in the first place.
I think the reasoning was that the more he posted, the more info he would inadvertantly reveal so they could track him down. Apparently he hid his ISP so they were attempting to 'bait' him into making a mistake.
It was clearly a waste of time, energy, and resources and now has the potential to muddy the waters in this investigation. People should leave the real detective work to the real detectives IMO or hire a P.I. firm to find him and reveal the results to the police.
I think they were frustrated and turned rougue. I suppose it's understandable from their point of view since they were down in the trenches and he was flaunting it in their face.
I'd have a difficult time controlling myself in a similar situation, especially if I wasn't getting any support from LE. I guess it's a hard lesson learned for them.
