VA VA - Scott Ratigan, 24, found murdered in apartment, Arlington, 17 Jan 2020

I have to respectfully disagree - not that someone probably should have recognised it, but in terms of it not being their natural gait.

Speaking as a pigeon-toed person, I tend to walk quickly, it doesn’t affect my pace. People are born with it and there may be other musculoskeletal differences or adaptations that contribute or result from this type of thing, so you end up with a slightly odd gait - compared to people who don’t have to learn to avoid tripping over their own toes from a young age. The POI’s gait certainly reminds me of my own when walking at pace; it’s a bit more exaggerated in terms of the way they swing their feet when jogging, but I have used specialised orthotics for a long time, have had various medical/physio interventions over the years, and am not bow-legged.

If you’re a ‘normie’ try turning your toes (the whole front ‘pad’ of your foot) inwards and walking/jogging whilst keeping them pointed inwards - most people will trip. I can’t see someone managing to ‘put it on’ at pace. I am not sure it’s easy to fake being pigeon-toed, and to fake it consistently (before and after an crime), especially considering the POI appear to be on the bow-legged side (which could contribute to the way someone walks).

In light of another comment elsewhere about wearing bigger shoes on the thread I’d also point out that, for a pigeon-toed person, that is nigh on impossible. You are adapted to how you are, add an inch or two in length onto your shoes and you’ll be tripping over like a 4 year old again!

Just my two cents.

I agree with this. I am pigeon toed and how I walk just feels normal to me at this point. I don't think this is anything that can be faked.

I know this is an older thread but maybe luigi mangione was the killer? Not saying he definitely is but the poi had on expensive clothes and looks like luigis build. Just seems like a possibility but don't know what the motive would have been.

The first thing I noticed when the CEO shooting was being covered was how similarly Luigi and the Scott Ratigan perp were dressed.

I personally think it was young males just looking similar for murdering someone. Males are lacking in the creativity and cleverness department.

Things like this are why I believe someone like Missy Bevers killer was a woman. Sheila warren killed her love rival by dressing like a clown and shooting her at her doorstep. Let’s not even start on the crazy cross country trip of a certain female astronaut….

You certainly did suggest the perps looked similar..

Nice find! For some reason I thought that was taken down.

I am not 100% convinced that the perp in the footage isn't wearing some kind of reflective visor.

There is one thing I find interesting about the perp.

I was an athlete and soldier for almost 30 years. I cannot recall any white males being “bow-legged”. It was not too uncommon for AA males, but I am having a very hard time recalling ever seeing a white male that had the “bow-legged” walk.

Just an observation.

I continue to think that the person that murdered Scott will leave a souvenir - (something collected from the scene); out where a person spots it.

Five and a half years is a long time for parents to go without knowing why their son was killed.

The theory at one time was a paid killer. IMO it was done by a person that was familiar with Scott.
