Any thoughts on what Harry found in Mora’s house? Did this clear him from being the follower?

Mora has definitely been in his job way too long - he’s become desensitized to it as well as developing a taste for the seamier side of things. While this didn’t actually clear him of being the Follower, it definitely showed that he had different tastes and suggested that he wasn’t into the voluptuous blonde porn actress

Mora had become a victim of the company that his job forced him to keep. The fact that he needed money was also a factor in his downward spiral. Whatever was this police officer thinking? Not even adults but underage kids...come on!

I guess this explains why Mora has been in vice for so long. He has a fetish. I think his fetish might actually help him with his job. Yes, I think this clears him from being the follower. His fetish is specific and does not follow the follower's ideals.

I think he's not the Follower but just a sad, lonely man. In some ways he reminds me of Harry in that he doesn't have someone he can care about, who cares about him. He uses his experience to help him stay in a job that has some appeal for him. But what he did makes him one sick guy.

It does prove that Mora was not the follower but just a sick cop.
