I agree! That's why even though I don't think they're connected, I'm still throwing out any ideas that could support a connection. Want to keep our minds open at this point.

Yes exactly! I'm a local in the area of Princeton and heard about Karina. It seemed to get a lot of media coverage. You could be fairly certain VMs perp heard about it.

This was the motorcycle accident couple. Checked out and unrelated.

I haven't heard that since they were incorrectly reporting that a couple claiming to have been in a motorcycle accident were possibly the killers. That story has checked out and the couple had in fact simply been in an accident. I don't think a woman was involved.

From my standpoint, it's huge news that they have a POI. If WCVB still has it up as their main story, they'd want to update that.

I don't know, but in VMs case at least, it doesn't surprise me. I feel like the perp has a criminal record but for nothing they'd have his DNA from. Just feel like he's been in trouble with the law before. I do think he probably has a history of violence/rape but he's gotten away with it/it...

Also, it looks like only WCVB Boston (channel 5) had a source inform them of this POI and DNA sample. Every article I've found on this development mentions WCVB reporting it.

Still not seeing any DNA updates. I'm thinking CBS was incorrect? Seems like it would be big news. The top story of channel 5 news is that DNA is being tested. You'd think they'd update that story as soon as there were any results.

You think? I see it differently. I think it's something he's thought about doing for a long time but just decided to go through with it after hearing about Karina. I think that's the explanation for the timing of it.

I believe the perp is being protected by a relative right now.

I think these very same things.

I agree with you. The only connection that I think could be possible is that VMs perp was inspired after hearing of Karina's murder.

Yes it was. Who knows how often she was there, but it could only take one trip to meet someone there from Queens who also knew Karina. Very easy to stalk someone now with social media without even getting to know them.

The Rockaways was tagged as the location.

Could you have heard wrong, do you think? I'm surprised there are no updates anywhere.

I don't think there's actually a connection, but if there was I'd imagine this guy having different circles of friends and knowing these women through different mutual friends. Maybe meeting each only once or twice and not really knowing them.

This seems most likely to me too. I don't think there was any real targeting. At the very most, maybe seeing them one day and returning in hopes to see the same jogger.

Still not seeing any updates about DNA results... I'm still hanging onto hope.

I really only know the MA/NH area closely. But I do know that the photo from VMs Instagram of her in a wetsuit was taken close to Howard Beach where Karina was from.

I've only been able to find any news of DNA testing from channel 5 (WCVB), and they've had no updates. That'll be devastating if it comes up empty.
