Idk about y'all, I'm 70% confident Luigi is the perp. I think that (assuming Luigi is the perp) he wanted to either:

[1] Eventually get caught, but merely delayed it to see reactions on social media, so that no innocent person becomes a scapegoat, and also for the purposes of getting more media coverage via the "manhunt" so his Manifesto/reasons for doind it is more widely spread. (I mean, it did last a few days on the news, so that was a lot of media coverage)

[2] He had more targets to "depose" but got caught before being able to do so.

I mean it could also be that after doing the deed he became panicked and might have had some erratic behaviour.

I think Occam's Razor is the best solution. He didn't expect to get away with it so easily. There wasn't a plan after the act.

I mean I would agree, although the way he phrased some diary entries points to him having more targets, just that this was a perfect "first" victim.

Applying Occam's razor would make both of OC's explanations equally as likely.

You need to accept this dude isn't the criminal mastermind you want him to be, I think.

I don't believe his plan was to get caught at all, maybe he had other targets, maybe he didn't, but he was caught because he made some bone headed mistakes.
