This likely means that the knife never existed in the first place, and was made up by the cops in order to justify shooting into a crowd.

    The current position of the NYPD is that some random black guy wandering past a crime scene after the cops shot up a crowd decided to steal the knife that the cops considered to be key evidence. This is, to put it mildly, somewhat less credible than the claim that a crow tried to steal a murder weapon.

      Honestly I find Russian general’s belief in a 3 day offensive more credible than that.

      Nearly 1000 days later, even.

        The police don’t want you to know this, but the knives at crime scenes are free. You can take them home with you. I have 458 knives.
