Well first of all you're assuming this is him. It could be. Could also be that the cops just found someone who's online profile seems plausible and are going to pin it on him.

If it's not him it seems it would be trivial to prove that, but if any of the information provided to us by law enforcement is true (yea I know big if, but why would a random cop in pennsylvania lie about finding the suspect?) then it's certainly him.

That's a good question. I could see that there might be a lot of downward pressure to find this guy and make an example of him. Maybe they were just happy to find a patsy to take some of the pressure off.
