Newbie...but, have been following and reading all posts, for several weeks. I tend to agree with some of the more simple theories. I don't believe NG or JW were involved in the crimes; although, I'm still on the fence, about whether DW acted alone. LE certainly has reason to believe that more than one person was involved, or I suspect they would not have publicly made that statement. IMO, it makes more sense that he had at least one accomplice, for convenience, if for nothing else. I also believe it would be someone in his inner-most circle, and someone with experience. A couple of things that keep running through my mind: the green vests, which I think were found in the garage (correct me, if I'm wrong). It's very possible those were used to gain entry to the house and/or to deflect suspicion of being noticed and "out of place", in the neighborhood. There was one such vest found in the burned out Porsche. Do we know how many were recovered at the house? That could provide some insight, possibly, as far as number of accomplices. Another point: the white bucket the perp was holding, while running away from the burning car. IMO, it was used to hold other valuables (cash, jewelry, etc.). I think they were greedy, and took anything and everything of value, that they could get their hands on...they had all night, with free reign, in the house. Therefore, IMO, they made off with a lot more than the 40K. Another possibility...they could've forced SS to give them credit cards, along with pin numbers. For all we know, there could have been trips to the ATM, through the night. They wouldn't need SS to go, as long as they had the cards and pin numbers. So many hours in that house...so many questions. As a side note, I do not think they are intelligent, by any means. They are street-smart. This is what they do. I think there are probably other crimes DW has committed, for which he was not caught. Being a criminal, is his occupation. All my opinion, of course.
