I do think a lot of the window shatterings, especially those on I-25 are related to the injury and killing(s). But not all. So, to figure a pattern you have to figure out which to filter out, and that's a mess. I do disagree with you a bit on the criticism of LE for not releasing more info. It may be that they don't have anything to release. But I actually do think they know something. I think they have at least two clear and distinct pieces of evidence about the shooter. They may feel that disclosing too much right now will actually tip off the shooter more than help the LE and the public. A smart killer (and many serial killers are very intelligent) is checking social media and maybe even Websleuths. So I think you and I and many others, are very much like the police, and are nervous about how much to discuss in the open. But, I will say this: almost immediately after the Windsor killing, the FBI was involved. I wonder if the shooter(s) didn't leave an actual message at that scene.

PrairieWind, many, if not most serial investigations are solved due to an aware citizen's tip. Imo, investigators in this case are utilizing the very ineffective antiquated silence and misinformation investigative strategy, which only causes more innocent victim's lives lost and mounting cold cases.. . Realizing the value of awareness by the American public, F.B.I. director J. Edgar Hoover, began the “Ten Most Wanted Fugitives” program in March 1950; over 65 years ago..
The F.B.I. has been able to enlist the public's help in finding what it calls the most serious offenders. Of the 490 names that have appeared on the list since its inception, 460 have been apprehended, including 151 nabbed as a direct result of tips from the public. The Internet has made the list even more universal, since it can be seen all over the world in a matter of seconds.
PrairieWind, please consider the criticism of LE/investigators as constructive criticism.. Public Safety is very important to us all. On 01/03/2008; two days after new years day, about 7 years ago, near my home in the north GA mountains, I witnessed an elderly man, a young girl, and a white van in the nearby woods. Thought they were only campers..
A young 24 yr old hiker and her dog<Ella> had gone missing on Blood mountain; over 60 miles away. Via MS Media, LE had reported her as only being lost on the AT <Appalachian Trail>. On day two, LE knew that she put up a valiant fight, yet had been violently abducted and was endangered.
Meredith Hope Emerson was murdered and decapitated the next day after I witnessed them in the woods next to my home..

PrairieWind, the tragic results of the misinfo/silence in this case was the catalyst for years of researching serial predator investigations to determine the common denominators of those that were successful as opposed to those that went south.. The overwhelming number of successful serial murder investigations are very transparent and utilize all available investigative resources. Their most valuable investigative resource; 'The American Public'.. via MSM and social media.. jmho
