Something else to note about him coming forward is sometimes the perp comes forward to be helpful as a way to insert themselves. I recall at one press conference it being said "you want to know what we know and one day you will"That’s right and it’s not the fault of RA’s attourneys if they have no defense, however much they enjoyed the attention given to them by SM and MSM.
Their options were very limited. It was RA who shut the door on that, initially by coming forward to LE and placing himself on the bridge in case anyone remembered seeing him, then later by confessing to anyone who’d listen. Libby has nailed the door shut with her video IMO. The D has nothing left. They can’t blame the murders on mental illness because RA knew the difference between right and wrong by claiming he didn’t see the girls, essentially lying to cover up the murders and cleaning up afterward. JMO and MOO
I really do wonder if RA never needed to offend again because he was getting something out of the fact he lived right there and saw how his crime impacted the town.. he hid in plain sight fully able to watch what was going on.. what people were saying.. He could walk on those trails and relive this crime any time he wanted.
I wonder if part of him feels relived he is caught. I don't know how long it would have been before the urge would get to be too much or something would trigger him and whatever caused him to do what he did on Feb 13, 2017 might have came up again.
