Dear
Oceanblueeyes and @Patrick Thomas ,
I respect and agree with both views.
It's just that I can't fathom these tortuous and evil killings without a deep and evil hatred towards the victims.
And yet, as Oceanblueeyes stated, this type of horrific and torturous murders have occurred before, and to victims who were strangers.
Hi there my sweet beautiful Zen.
We will never understand the hatred shown by so many suspects in home invasion cases.
Is it hatred in general toward others for it certainly has happened before and most of these horrific cases were done by complete strangers to the victims.
How could these murderers do such sadistic acts against those they have never met? I have no answers and everytime it happens I cringe at the evilness done by others.
I know you remember the barbaric case in Georgia a couple years ago where a very fragile 83 year old petite woman had her home invaded. What hatred or threat could she have instilled in those who brutally took her life? Why did they have to beat her so badly causing multiple crushing fractures to her skull..hands and crushed her ribs just because she had no money they could take? Why the overkill? But they did not stop there and also doused her with gasoline and set her afire. Is it because they know they have full power and control over the lives of their victims and do what they do because they want to and know they can? Imo it seems it is a possibility because the brutality perpetrated against innocent victims in home invasions are often done.
Remember the case of home invasion where a pastors pregnant wife was beaten.. raped and murdered by total strangers?
We have had several cases discussed on WS of home invasions in recent years where the victims were wealthy like this family. It shows no one is immune no matter their social status. It's frightening to even think someone may be casing homes out who have sinister intentions. It could happen anywhere and it does.
Again..I have no answers but i know we have discussed many home invasion..murder cases on WS that were filled with the evil acts done by the prepetratos.
Is it due to hatred or is it sadistic traits of a sociopath/s rearing their head? IDK but imo evil is present in this case.
I agree with the prosecutor on the motives concerning this case. Iirc the DA believes the motive is greed to rob the family combined with resentment of being fired years ago when he worked at SSs.. company..
Imo he targeted this particular family who he knew was wealthy. By selecting this home/ and family he could also satisfy his revenge against the one who owned the company he was fired from.
I have read extensively about sociopaths. Most will never become murderers but they will do everything in their power to exact revenge. They have been known to carry grudges for years. Some will go to any length they feel necessary to "get even' ...even resorting to murder.
Imo in the end the evidence will show he is the one who murdered this family. The jurors know it's the evidence that always matters. That is why motives never have to be proven. Evidence is what the jury will weigh. If they believe it points to DWs guilt he will be convicted even if motive is unknown.
However I think the jury will agree with the motives the DA will put forward in the trial while supporting them with strong CE.
