Reading this thread, I was really struck by this particular post...
I think what I'm looking at there is the evolution of a killer, who went from single attacks to the next stage, where he learns how to abduct more than one victim starting with two very young children (easy to control, while experimenting with his fantasy) and working up to older girls later on. He also learns that it's safer to remove the victims to a distance from their homes.
It's just really interesting, for that factor alone. If he's connected with other dual-abduction crimes, I would not be at all surprised - that is clearly where he was headed as a rapist/killer, and apparently stuck with 'formula' until his death.
I hope all his movements are being tracked. I can almost guarantee there's other victims of single -and- dual crimes no-one knows about -- yet. No way he stopped, unless he was in jail, taking every opportunity he could. That's just how guys like this are.
