🪦 Deceased Desmond Daniel Amofah / Etika / Etika World Network - Dead nigga

[MetalParakeet]

If you actively want to avoid surveillance it isn't hard to just stay away from places with cameras.

Oh you innocent thing.
As someone who used to monitor some of those cameras, let me tell you. They're everywhere.

Honestly though, I don't think his career would bomb if he ended up alive. The internet loves mental illness success stories.

All he has to do is come back and blog about his mental breakdown, superficially support depressed fans and start up a mental health charity that goes straight to his pocket

 

[Dumbchan]

I mean, he did 'schedule' his next breakdown... so he likely made some sort of elaborate plan on how he plans on doing this.

His career, even after so many meltdowns seems to still go strong because people still love Etika. People won't hesitate to throw all the money they have at him.

 

[SlavicCyanide]

I can understand if saying you're gonna commit suicide if you actually plan on doing it, and I can understand if you turn out alive because something stops you from actually dying (like of someone steps in and stops you or your attempt fails), but my God what goes through people's head that makes them think threatening suicide multiple times will work? It just makes you look even worse.
I don't know who this person is but I've already lost almost all sympathy for them.

 

[RogerSpanderbilt]

Taking bets now fellas.
A: Etika found dead as a doornail under a bridge, by a crackhouse, etc.
B: they find the faggot hiding out somewhere near his home
C: Etika drinks the Kool-Aid

If he is alive and hiding, it'd be even worse.
If he didn't jump he could play the "I was gonna kill myself, but I had a change of heart. I'm gonna commit myself to an institution till I get better" card.

If he shows up alive after a few days, he's just an asshole who faked his death to make people worry.

 

[Wake me up]

he likely made some sort of elaborate plan

It's unclear how much self-control this crazy person has, let alone the ability to make long-term plans, let alone elaborate ones. If he had any form of self-awareness and intelligence we wouldn't be talking about him. Let alone about him being dead.

Pretty much why I'm not taking any bets on anything until we get a body report. Probably of me, but I feel like someone who monitors them would give footage if they had any to at least help point the people investigating in the correct direction.

 

[Pony Horn]

Niggos can't swim so if he jumped in that water he's not coming up until decomposition sets in.

You have to know what you are looking for. At this point he’s off the streets somewhere. By the time word got out time had passed where those looking at cameras wouldn’t see him on there. They would have to go back and spend hours viewing old footage for a 24 hour (est) period. And how do you know if you should be looking or not? Will a bank near the bridge do it? Will the liquor store on the corner do it? It’s hundreds of businesses The police would have to direct to look at old footage. It’s unlikely they will ask them to and if not asked it’s doubtful the businesses will. You have to be very determined to find footage of him while knowing a window of time and area to look in. Surveillance is good for real time issues and events taking place in a small area. Until facial recognition software is used (if it isn’t already) it’s searching for a needle in a haystack.

There are many cities filled with facial recognition. London, Amsterdam and Berlin at the very least. Hell, Beijing has facial recognition in that massive city. Amsterdam is even replacing most camera's with voice recognition. The wrong words (boom, terror, kidnapping, kill, death, missile, IED, etc) will alert a guy that can send Marechaussee. Where Etika lives I promise you they can follow him everywhere they want except for maybe a few blind spots.

Surveillance is very advanced. They can find him if they want to. Unless Etika took precautions and does not want to be found. Take bright white sneakers, big gaudy coloured logo shirt and other clothes that will be easily followed on camera, backpack inside plastic bag, go out as Etika, travel 1 direction, find a place where nobody could possibly be watching you, shave head, put on other very bland generic clothes, change direction, put on the really dark skiing sunglasses or the present everywhere Rayban Aviator copshades, a cap, and there you go.

He could have done it if he thought about it. If he did think about it to the point camera's will lose him I doubt he was off his rocker at that time, which means it sort of was a suicide threat and not an attempt I think. Assuming they took out the time to even let the computer look for his face in all of the footage, such queries do not take just 1 minute and there are likely other people they want to find first, like that serial rapist suspect or arsonist that killed a family of 5.

 

[Nypical Haterade Comment]

I'll buy Etika's disembodied spirit for a dime (to unleash it upon my ex).

Etika refuses to finish “Jojo’s” and ends up becoming someone’s Stand. The irony.

Either:

1. He dumped his stuff, jumped off the bridge.
2. He dumped his stuff, then killed himself somewhere else.
3. He dumped his stuff on the bridge, and then went _____ ?
4. Someone else dumped his stuff

What do you think is the respective likelihood of these?

How common is it for someone to jump off Manhattan Bridge, and further, to not be seen doing it? There are fences; they're not that high but they do curve inwards. To me it looks like someone (especially someone tall) could get their foot on the lower railing, in the gap, and boost themselves over. Anyone from NY/familiar with the bridge?

Looks like people do jump from there 'successfully', but it doesn't seem that often:

https://nypost.com/tag/manhattan-bridge/

Though the true number may not be available to the public / may be underrepresented because if no one sees them jump, and they're not found close to the bridge, it's probably hard to identify exactly where the bodies originate from.

 

[whatever I feel like]

Not familiar but that fence is only like eight feet high. You could probably climb it in like 30/40 seconds, then its as simple as flopping over and into the river. Its not like Etika is fat or unhealthy or anything.

I wanna say he left the bag there as a dead end and ran away somewhere but I think the most likely and simplest explanation is he just jumped.

A person doesn't survive falling off a bride unless they have a guardian angel on shift 24/7, something I doubt someone as unlucky as enough to be in the mental state Etika's in to have.

You'd be a sorry excuse of a husband too if your newlywed tried to bridal carry your weight and failed.

 

[BlueArmedDevil]

Well he made the front page on CNN

 

[Dumbchan]

I am just not seeing him putting in the effort of jumping off that bridge, if it's a climb before you jump.

However, if noone has seen him at this point, he could have jumped.

 

[Pop-Tart]

Ok, but did he do a flip?

 

[Marissa Moira]

Lol if the police are now involved and this is a prank he's going to get his ass beaten legally.

Smolett only got his wrist slapped in the first round because people in power tried to cover for him, but this youtuber is a literal who and is also wasting resourcing of the NYPD who are the best funded and connected police force in the world.

 

[LU 010]

its new york, he could have dumped his stuff and jumped without anyone knowing he was about too

More like without anyone giving a shit.

Either:

1. He dumped his stuff, jumped off the bridge.
2. He dumped his stuff, then killed himself somewhere else.
3. He dumped his stuff on the bridge, and then went _____ ?
4. Someone else dumped his stuff

The only ones I think are even plausible are 1 and 3. He's either become an hero or he's faked becoming an hero to run away with his cult. I'm about 95% it's the former. I hope they find his body soon just so everyone can stop speculating/wigging out. Catching a body in a river that size is no small task, though.
