There are two threads going for this case. Hopefully they're merged soon. Trying to keep up with both.

Good work by LE, identity the suspect quickly.

I wonder how they pieced it together so quickly?

Whoever did it probably left a lot of evidence behind, and perhaps the people who knew the people involved all said, "Talk to this guy."

So curious to (hopefully) learn: was the connection among these three people?

I don't sense remorse, shame, or anything like that from the mugshot. Not that it would change anything.

Unless it's an older-student or graduate-student dormitory, it's unusual for people that age to be living in on-campus housing. Sure hope this can be solved.

no it's actually not that unusual. happens quite frequently for college campuses. this sort of housing is easiest for many students regardless of age. there's no age limit....

Suspect in fatal Colorado university dorm shooting was a roommate of one of the victims, police say

Samuel Knopp, 24, and Celie Rain Montgomery, 26, were found fatally shot Friday at the University of Colorado Colorado Springs' Crestone House residence. Knopp was a student at the school.

So shooter was Sam's roommate wonder if Celia was Sam's gf?

"These deaths, and the ensuing unimaginable pain, are happening much too often in an environment where teaching and learning should be our only concern," the college said in a statement. Agreed.

Looks like a love triangle. 6am shooting might mean he slept over at their place when the perpetrator was not supposed to be back home.

he may have caught them, confront them and then shot them.

So sad. Ruin everyone's life at such a young age.

I wonder how they pieced it together so quickly?

At 6 am he may have been drunk and banging at the door possibly him knowing this guy spent the night with his room mate. Maybe he was drunk and they wouldn't let him in and he made a lot of noise and was seen by others before he barged in and shot them. Just a possibility

This is just pure speculation... 6 am shooting is the key to this one.
