People have pointed out their jackets, bags, and facial features might not line up.
Remember, kids: YES = DIFFERENT people, NO = SAME person.
Possible clarification from creator (AI generated): Market will be resolved based on official police sources and creator's judgment. Resolution may be delayed until after suspect is caught.

3.00Claims on the internet of high profile pictures being body doubles or different people aren’t new.
And a lot of these claims always focus a bunch of minor changes in grainy photos.
Go take a bunch of pictures of yourself from different angles on different days. You’ll see slight variations in small details depending on the temperature, time of day, your mood, ect. Faces are squishy.
The jackets honestly could be the same with different lighting. As for the bag, it’s highly likely he had two, one he abandoned the monopoly money, and the other with his actual gear.

he really did have multiple jackets lol
Just the backpack straps are pretty telling. This tone change should also be pretty robust to lighting changes.
@jothan He easily could have changed his backpack and jacket to avoid detection. Build and facial features are similar. I would guess it's the same person
@zax shame. if someone makes a version of this market with actual resolution criteria, I'll bet in it.
I will use available police/media sources and my best judgment, potentially leaving the market open for a while after he's caught. How else would I do it?
@zax I'm obviously biased, but I'd say the burden of proof on those on think they are differen't people. So say there is no police / media source which explicitly state these are different people, this should resolve to No.
@JaimeSantaCruz you could honestly add one of these photos to the question and ask whether these three pictures are the same person. The angles, lighting, quality and clothing worn all make distinct differences.
Though if the police believe they are the same person, then I do. People are overthinking this.
@vitamind Although I do have to ask how many jackets this guy owns. Because I may not know one face from another worth a damn but that is yet a third distinct jacket.
@nonnihil how many do you own? Serious question…
Dump the waterproof one used in the shooting like he done with the beige bag. The fabric one has been identified so dump that too? Doesn’t seem far fetched.
Regardless, I’m sure the detectives would have spoken to witnesses to verify that all “persons” in the three photos (two here and the new one from the taxi) are the same person by cross referencing witness statements with voice / accent, height, eye colour, mannerisims etc. etc. Again - people are overthinking this.
@TheAllMemeingEye Clearly the way the question is phrased confused the AI generator, I wonder how many traders also bought the wrong option.
@zax I don't think the question is unclear, but when I saw it, together with the AI generated header and the pictures my dumb brain automatically changed it to "are they the same person" which is the opposite question. My brain is dumb and does that sometimes.
@zax I actually bet with the same confusion as @Odoacre—there’s a strong implicit YES = same, NO = different association. Could you add a brief line to the description to explicitly repeat that? e.g., “YES = different people, NO = same person”
(“YES, they are NOt the same” is probably the underlying brain wires getting crossed.)
