His bag was illegally seized in the restaurant (no warrant or probable cause) and searched later, when they found a lot of convenient evidence. After a massive, sudden manhunt that was at serious risk of turning up empty-handed.

Warrantless searches are illegal in Pennsylvania for homes and vehicles, they’re expected to search the suspects person during an arrest. The Altoona local police don’t have any skin off their teeth if an FBI manhunt turns up empty. Yes, he did have a ton of convenient evidence, because he had been fleeing the area of the crime scene for several days without rest. Something pretty unusual among innocent people, imo.
…how do you struggle with 600 words, and yet post so much online?
I posted a link to a news story that mentioned the process of picking him up, mentioning grabbing the bag and processing it later, just as I said was done.

Here’s another, where his defense attorney talks about how his backpack was searched away from the restaurant where he was arrested before the evidence was found. Unfortunately, it also has some words: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/mar/23/unitedhealthcare-ceo-shooting-trial-evidence
If every comment I replied to included an extra 600 words I’d be a lot less engaged with the conversation, that’s for sure.
