I see some posters surprised by the "multiple sharp force trauma". Sadly I am not. After reading his profile on FB - his favourite music is Narcocorridos and there are lots of awful "jokes" encouraging violence towards women- and where he comes from (more on this later) the only thing that surprises me is that this "thing" had reached the age of 24 without killing before.
One of my best pen pals -I am into snail mail- Alma is from the state of Guerrero. Fortunately she no longer lives there -she is doing her PhD in Canada- and she was telling me via Skype this afternoon how violence in some areas of this state is so rampant behaving like a savage is just the norm, not an exception.
This link to an article from last year published by a British newspaper explains more about this:

I still think Mollie was targeted. Social media makes it so scarily easy these days to know about someone's daily habits... He probably knew her jogging route and made sure he was there when she passed by.
I really hope everybody in Brooklyn is emotionally supporting her family.
