It's all about the "power & control " he knows where the bodies are & it's now a game to him IMOEssentially you turn yourself in bc you know you know you’re about to be arrested. It lets you control the situation - where and when, how much force is used, how the media responds, whether your family are there and have to see it all, etc.
You also then get to say you did the right thing which helps with a plea or with sentencing.
One you’re in custody, it’s not then expected you’d admit everything. Listening to your lawyer isn’t looked upon negatively. You have the right to a lawyer and a lawyer would tell you not to actively incriminate yourself.
Also, I imagine he will be thinking very carefully when and how he discloses the other information. Depending on the way he killed them it could be better or worse for him to disclose where the bodies are now. It’s hard to prove murder without a body, so hes probably waiting to see whether he can force a good deal since prosecution have a harder job if they can’t show a body or prove how it happened (eg “it was spur of the moment, I didn’t mean to” compared to premeditation). Long term I imagine he will disclose given the no body no parole law.
Very sick individual who had a very powerful job.
I imagine that him not getting in "trouble" over the tazer incident , only gave him more power in his mind
