Meth comes to mind. Anabolic steroids also. Some of the photos show this guy jacked (with non natural appearance) so he may have only started using steroids recently. They have a whole plethora of mental side effects that can go with them. If using meth also which many steroid users in Australia do, it's no surprise he didn't sleep for a week, and carried out such a hideous act.
100% . That stuff is so dangerous, so addictive, they’ll steal the gold out of their mother’s teeth to buy a fix ! Imo.
But I don’t want BLC thinking that he’s such a clever little f*&# with his ‘acting’ portrayal of a confused person, that will be his defence.
To murder Jesse was without any shadow of a doubt, premeditated - and he had it all worked out, had the surf board cover to transport the body, no doubt knew Jesse would be home that morning, knew flat mates weren’t home (had a key to let himself in anyway)
However I don’t think BLC expected Luke to be there ( for all we know this may’ve been the first time he’d stayed over. Late shift or day off maybe ) and Luke’s presence may perhaps have changed the whole scenario that BLC had played out in his mind.
* it’s interesting to hear there were words spoken on that 000 call, as up until now I understood nothing was said. And they are pretty ‘telling’ words, when a call is ended straight after, imo.
Scenarios ( from the diagram, imo it happened in the kitchen)
1) Jesse is in kitchen when BLC appears & shoots him.
BLC then makes his way upstairs - encounters Luke who’s woken up & who says ‘ get … .. ‘ so BLC then shoots him.
NO, doesn’t work for me, as no reason for BLC to go upstairs, and no presented evidence re upstairs
2) Luke is in kitchen when he sees BLC coming inside. He immediately dials 000 as he’s speaking to BLC, but he’s ‘motioned with gun’ to end the call, which he does.
Perhaps Jesse came out of the bathroom at this point. Was there an attempt to overthrow BLC & his first bullet went a bit astray, but enough to render one very injured and the other very concerned …. then it was 2 x quick executions.
Maybe.
Having to deal with 2 people / 2 bodies may’ve rattled his ‘perfect plan’. Much more challenging & time consuming, more stuff to get rid of … and now he has to leave the bodies there in order to go get another surf board cover ! FFS!
…. what to do now. . . ok put one in its intended surf bag, wrap the other in a doona & stick them both out the back under a tarp for now.
I can’t believe those flatmates - but I’ll say no more on that..
Maybe BLC will plead guilty to the murder of Jesse, but to involuntary manslaughter of Luke .
Just out of interest, what happens in Aus is an impartial jury cannot be formed ?
OMG - please let’s not waste any more valuable resources…..
