Like many have stated, I agree that AG knew her killer, but I'm not so sure about connections with any other attacks/murders. Of course, it possible.I know - big question mark here. I just feel it in my gut that the Shelley Lorraine attack IS connected to Audrey's murder. Call it intuition!
We know AG was a bit of a night owl, and night owls (like myself) sometimes go to bed in the morning, or in the darker, wee hours of the morning.
It's probable that she crated the dogs when she went to bed (as many folks do), but we've also been told that she sometimes crated them when PK (and presumably other trusted visitors) entered the house.Indeed, but I wonder why AG crated them *sometimes* for PK and not for others!! Perhaps AG didn't crate them when she and PK were working outdoors??
So, the question is....were they crated for AG's bed time, or for a trusted visitor?
Since AG wasn't found in/near bed, but rather in the garage, with her coat on, I'm thinking it's the latter: That she had a trusted visitor, crated the dogs, and when the person left, she threw on her coat to walk them out through the garage (leaving her purse inside...as she wasn't needing it). Or conversely, she crated the dogs (expecting a visitor would be entering her home) and then went to meet the person as they arrived. I believe PK has stated she would greet people in the garage.I'm going with this latter scenario!
The other question is, how was this meeting scheduled? By phone, email or orally (in person)?
If by phone or email, then there are records, and possibly other persons of interest.
However, since we were told about other parts of AG's final schedule; ie: soup being brought over, going to LA's on boxing day, the vet, last emails sent, etc....then we probably would also have been told about any other phone/email comms of interest, and thus other persons of interest.Yes - IF LE wants us to know these facts.
Also, we might expect AG to document any scheduled meetings in an email, as she did when she mentioned LA was bringing her soup.
So, it seems we either have an undocumented, scheduled meeting of a trusted person, or a trusted person dropping by unexpectedly. I'll go with the latter, because as mentioned, we haven't heard of any special/extra comms that could suggest a meeting, and AG didn't document any other meeting in an email, or tell anyone as far as we know.For some reason, I'm going with the highlighted part of your post.
(Though, we do know about the semi-documented meeting scheduled in the "cake arrangement" phone call, in which PK claims he was to drop the cake off on that Thursday, December 30.)
So, who was trusted enough to just drop by, and trusted enough that AG would crate the dogs for him/her/them?Perhaps someone we have NO IDEA about - ie, an online 'friend'. Or, PK or PK and his wife (to visit at Christmas time) or a female friend. Big question here!!:waitasec:
Since AG didn't always crate the dogs for PK, was this a special circumstance requiring crating? (For example, was there a special or extra guest, or was something the dogs might get excited about being brought in? ex. food)This is why I've suggested PK bringing his wife by to see Audrey for a Christmas visit.
Extra Questions:
Did she ever mention to anyone that PK was going to bring a cake?Not that we know of??
How did AG feel about academic plagiarism? Would she feel compelled to report it?What a brilliant question. I'd think it would irk her very much.
