I don’t think he was an Uber driver, but I don’t have a lot to back my opinion up. Just my sense of it. If he was, he should be able to prove that easily to clear his name. Also, if he’s a totally innocent Uber driver (especially if he did something as brave as kicking IY out on the side of the road and calling 911 on him), it is absurdly reckless for his name to have been released.
IMO, Dave Johnson knows IY. What I’m wondering now that we’re talking about that piece of it is how LE found him in Pensacola so fast. I don’t actually remember much about his arrest, I need to go back and research. How is it that they found him so fast, on foot and in the woods, in another state?
