It is pretty clear to most people that they are not saying someone posed as a McDonalds employee. I’m not sure if you’re being deliberately obtuse, but in case you or anyone else is misunderstanding, they are suggesting the following:
A cop/fed illegally obtained his whereabouts. They follow him into a McD. The cop/fed goes up to McD employee and says “you should call in a tip there’s a big reward”. They don’t mention they are a cop/fed to the McD employee. Now that there is a record of “an anonymous tip” they have an on the books explanation of how they located him without having to disclose how they actually were able to track him.
I’m not saying that’s what happened, but you seem to have repeatedly misunderstood so I’m just making it clear.
ALL they needed was to say “yo dog, that dude looks like the dude in the security camera footage”. Simple as that. Also, why even include a mcdonald’s employee at that point rather than just leaving an “anonymous tip” on a hotline?

Again, jet fuel, steel beams, what the fuck?
