I don’t know if this is a boy or a girl, but OF COURSE IT’S 17 YEARS OLD!!
It's a terrible Photoshop, is what it is
Greata Watanabe?
This idiot has to be a patsy. The real person the FIB wants is working at headquarters.
Exactly. Or FBI outsourced their swatting to him, and now throwing him under the bus. Classic playbook.
It's PAT!
Too many female hormones in this tall, obese, pasty-complected young man. (Unless it is a female-to-male trans person.)
He appears to be multi-ethnic - perhaps Caucasian + Asian. He has a small amount of neck beard going on, and has thin, non-muscular arms disproportionate to his large belly girth.
Who raised this child and what kind of parent lets this happen under their watch?
So friggin weird , is this a real person
I dont know why, but I expecting the scene where Gob keeps telling his employees how many thousand dollars his suit costs.
Here's a video with him standing and moving:

Well, the back of someone shifting considerable weight around, anyway.
Weird, I know. But there it is.
I'm going to theorize that the kid was set up by the feebs to do the swatting ... end goal being to get more funding for the feebs. More "create a problem to get money for a solution." So wearying. People's lives are being ruined.
The idiot is the one who swatted CATTURD. He used his home IP address. His name has been publicized as Alan Winston Filion who was in the business of selling "Swats" like a service for payment. https://twitter.com/0HOUR/status/1751340798455738489
Catturd says not true.
If Rosie O'Donnel had a kid...this would be it
It identifies as an edge lord
Mommies basement dweller. Never had to face consequences for her actions.
It seems there has to be some willful negligence on the agencies involved.
There is a portrayal of constant and diligent training. Reality of the times would alter the checklist to include verifying the address and verifying the situation.
I guess until one of them ends up being a full blown setup, the po-po will keep kicking doors in with impunity.
About damn time someone got in trouble for this. How was all this swatting happening with "no idea" who was doing it?
What, swatting random people with a high risk of getting them killed in the process? That kind of kid?
It's a serious subject, so excuse my abrasive tone. I can understand the sentiment, I suppose.
