I watched the
hearing again to try and figure this out. At approx @27:00 in the hearing, Bennett said JH gave her "a couple different stories" about where he was directly before the murders. Bennett said, "I know that a short time before, he was at a Waffle House in Cobb County." This had to be 4875 Alabama Rd NE, Roswell, GA 30075, because all the other Waffle Houses nearby are in Fulton County. This is the one I thought it was, on Highway 92, between Publix and Flash Foods.
Here are all the times given in the hearing, but they are spread out in the broadcast so I had to put them all together.
3:01-3:13 JH is seen parking his car in the front Publix parking lot - exact minute isn't given but it was "just after 3:00"
3:12-3:13 Victim's cars appear behind the Publix
3:13-3:15 JH is seen on foot behind the Publix
3:15-3:35 JH spies on victims, climbs roof, and murders them
4:00 JH is on camera at Flash Foods wearing the mask
4:35 JH arrives back at the Publix to steal the jumper cables
Another poster here mentioned JH might have overheard the victims at the Waffle House talk about going to Publix. This explains how he got there before the victims, yet knew to immediately walk back there. From where he supposedly parked in the front parking lot, there is a huge hill/mound blocking the King Road entrance, and bushes blocking the Highway 92 entrance. At night he could have seen headlights shining around all the landmarks and known the victims arrived.
I now believe the victims came in through the King Road entrance. At about 26:00 Bennett says the victims' cars were picked up driving in "four" surveillance cameras. She never said they were seen in the front of the store shopping center, like JH was. This means they had to have come in by King Road. If you look at the back of the shopping center on google maps, coming in from King Road, I counted exactly four white cameras above different stores going towards the Publix where they ended up parking behind - two above door #430 (the UPS store), one just past door #400 on the corner, and one above the door to the right of where they parked, to the right of the small dumpster/fence cage. This would be the 4th camera, that supposedly caught them driving in, but didn't catch the murder. :thinking:
The only way I can think of that four cameras could have caught them if they came in off Highway 92, is if they made a U-turn at the light on King Road intersection, and the other two cameras were PNC Bank and Regions Bank cameras, in addition to the Publix loading dock and back door fence cage cameras. But I don't know if the banks had cameras that would pick up their cars on 92, so I think King Road is the most likely entrance. What do you all think?
