A lot of people on all platforms trying to explain why he kept his gun, why he was caught so easily, and most coming up with easy explanations that fit their conspiracy theories.
The simple explanation is, he might be smarter than most, but maybe not enough to outsmart the whole NYPD police department. Maybe he kept his gun because he didn't want to leave a trace. Maybe he wanted to get caught peacefully in a McD rather than dying in a shooting.
Also, to those who still don't believe he's the killer: he is. Police don't go capture a random dude and then plant every evidence on him "because they need a scapegoat". There's a whole judicial process that goes on after the arrest, and if he's found not to be the killer, the police will have to go back to square one on a cold trail. They usually don't want that.

Some dude got convicted of nothing but a "teeth mark" psudoscience BS.
That was a low-profile case. This is a high-profile case, which has higher incentives to find a scapegoat.
High-profile case also means more scrutiny from everyone, which means there's a bigger risk someone finds out what they did.
So, the police are sharing their behind-the-scenes "evidence" with you to achieve said scrutiny, yes? Can i see..?
