Since the alarm had to be deactivated in order to enter the house undetected, HS had to arrive home first to turn off the alarm. Then, the NW had to gain entry into the house after the alarm was off. Was it someone HS knew and let in or was it someone who came in through an unlocked backyard door after the alarm was turned off? Was the NW waiting in the backyard for HS/BS to come home and turn off the alarm upon HS/BS entering their house?
I noticed a pattern in the alarm company details.
At first the media reported that the Shermans did not have an alarm system or if they did they didn’t use it. But after the murders an alarm company worker arrived at the home in full view of the media and he identified himself. There were many ways to get that person into the home undetected. Maybe the police wanted it to be caught on video and reported.
Then in the warrant documents the information about the alarm system is at first fully redacted and then progressively revealed to indicate what I’ve posted above.
I think everything the police are doing is strategic and there’s something about the alarm system that is key, imo. It’s in the affidavits so it’s helping to establish grounds to obtain a warrant, but I’m not sure for what. And why reveal it?
