IMPO circumstances point to the possibility that all 3 victims could have potentially known the shooter.
- Maybe the killer called each of them and asked them to meet?
-what kind of acquaintance could they have ALL had in common that WOULDN'T have been an easy connection to see--- a drug dealer perhaps?
CIRCUMSTANCES TO SUPPORT THIS
-victim #1
Mitchell--- finish his midterm at the university at approx 8:15 and took a bus home, and MINUTES after he arrived home he told his aunt he was headed back out again... this is why
'"he turned to his aunt and told her he was heading back out. He had developed a crush on a coworker at Ikea and didn't want her to ride the bus home by herself.
"I said, 'That's too much to go to Ikea and wait for her and bring her home,' but you know how young men are," McDaniels said. "He was all smiles and just said, 'I'll be back soon,' and that was it." Just before 9 p.m., Yahrael Bey heard three pops outside. He dismissed them at first as fireworks. But when he looked out his front door, Bey saw Mitchell lying on the ground by the bus stop across the street"'

I mapped the routes both from his campus to his home and from his campus to ikea at the correct times and day of week, see ss attached...
It doesnt seem likely that he would have wasted twice the amount of time AND bus fare to go home and then head back out to go to ikea IN THE RAIN to escort some girl he liked....
-imp much more likely he got an unplanned call and went back out for some other reason
Victim #2
Monica----friend is supposed to pick her up from her home on wed the 11th, speaks to her on phone at approx 830, arrives shortly after and monica is not there. She is later found 1 block from her home
- why did she walk up the street to a vacant residential lot? We know she wasnt waiting for a bus. Friends said she was not her bubbly talkative self at work earlier and seemed scared.... maybe she just needed a fix?
-has history of drug abuse
-friend that was going to pick her up said she was talking loud as if she wanted someone to hear that they were on the way to pick her up.
-maybe she was meeting with her dealer and sensed something was wrong

Victim #3
Anthony Naroiba---chose to walk home the rest of the way instead of transferring to second bus (LE said he initially took the wrong bus).
-could he have gotten a call to meet someone?
---see below direct copy paste-- source underneath
"Naiboa took the Route 32 west on Dr. Martin Luther King Boulevard, Rodriguez said, and got off at North 15th Street. He could have caught the Route 9 there and ridden north toward the family's home.
For some reason, at about 7:40 p.m., he started walking instead, through the Southeast Seminole Heights neighborhood where police were out in force, searching for whoever was behind two shootings a week earlier. Naiboa made it about 14 blocks, to Conover Street, right in front of the home of shooting victim Benjamin Mitchell. A gunshot rang out. Police heard the sound, just before 8 p.m., and quickly tracked it down. But it was too late."
