FL - Manhunt in Tampa after 4 slayings in 5 weeks, Oct-Nov 2017 #2 *Arrest*

[Owutatangledweb]

I am in no way a profiler but it doesn't seem to me that this guy has any gang affiliation. His walk isn't cocky enough, no "swagger" if you will. He is calm, cool, and collected. Knows what he wants to do and as far as he is concerned nothing is going to stop him from doing it. I don't completely disagree with the military association. Maybe he went through the training but never passed his psych evaluation? Maybe he was discharged from the military (honourably or otherwise) and has an axe to grind against the general population? Or maybe he had something traumatic happen to him right before these killing occurred?
I do not have any military training, so maybe I'm completely off with these theories.
I'm just throwing spaghetti at the wall and hoping something might stick.
if enough of us keep throwing ideas around maybe we will break this thing wide open.

I've been all over the military since the beginning. But I don't think LE should jump to the conclusion that he was trained by OUR military. I hope they've looked at recent travelers to the Middle East and ruled those out first. I do believe he is our former or current military though and also hope they are looking at those who have come home in the past year to year and a half. I do believe he is in his very early twenties. 20 to 23

I think he knows the neighborhood but hasn't been there long and may even be a bridge transient.

I reiterate my suggestion from earlier that I think LE should check Walmart video. Everyone goes there for something. In this case, maybe for burner phones.

Something big is going down right now. Check local groups and scanner.

Steve Hegarty with Tampa police confirmed to News Channel 8 this is a drive-by shooting that does not have to do with the search for the murderer of four innocent people in the area.

Too much static. I'm getting nothing.

Edit. Something about a house surrounded but don't know if it pertains to this.

Lots of conflicting chatter in the community groups. Stand by.

Not related. Drive by shooting.

We will see. This is way too hinky to be a coincidence.

Could the perp have moved to drive-by shooting?.

 

[Owutatangledweb]

Perp could have been part of gang initiation? If so, could be related?

Sure. It just seems weird that he would look for people to shoot in the same neighborhood if he had access to a car. He'd be way incognito on foot compared to a car if he only had a few blocks to go.

I was thinking earlier that the killer would start drive-by shootings next, but I was thinking it would be outside the area of the murders.

In any case, if they dismissed it that quickly as being related they probably have a good reason to do so, right?

Like maybe the driver/shooter was the only one in the car and he was 5'5" and 230 pounds and obviously at a glance not the guy.

It's beyond weird. Is there honestly a person dumb enough to engage in a drive-by shooting in an area with an active serial killer on the loose and a heavily guarded police presence?

Yes, there are dumb criminals out there! This would be "incredibly unbelievably dumb".
