The manhunt for former Brown University grad student Claudio Manuel Neves Valente, who shot and killed MIT professor Nuno Loureiro, lasted five days, matching the duration of notable previous manhunts. Initial misidentification of a suspect and poor video quality hampered the investigation, but crucial information from a Reddit user ultimately led to Valente’s identification. He was later found dead by suicide in a New Hampshire storage unit. Investigators faced intense pressure as they navigated challenges in gathering evidence and leads throughout the case.
