The way I see it there are a few possibilities:
1) He isn't the real DPR
2) He is the real DPR, but he's extremely inept and didn't get caught before due to dumb luck
3) He isn't the original DPR, but an inept person who took over to take the fall for the original DPR
4) He wanted to get caught?

He's just someone who totally didn't prepare for his adversaries, who ultimately didn't need to go to any great lengths to unmask him. I'm surprised nobody in the general public managed to do it, quite honestly. Just not as clever as he thought he was being, essentially.

- sliverstorm 13y agodidn't get caught before due to dumb luck There isn't really much "before". The site was only up for about 2.5 years before shutdown, and the FBI started building a case back in, what, May? June?
