different thing though?
Purportedly the one with the sliding glass door on the 3rd floor.
Also from the release - DOG INFO
Thank you.
Maybe . IMO, there’s not enough legitimate info out there to rule anything out yet. I’m still not set on the killer being male. I so deeply hope that this is solved in the next year.
Perhaps the killer killed all four roommates so that the real target could not be discerned.
i understand why people are suspcious and looking for various "clues" or "tells" but you are right, unless/until LE specifically names someone it is horrible to speculate. It can really ruin lives. Imagine someone who is innocent but deemed a POI by internet sleuths applying for a job in the future and the employer googles them and sees all the speculation that they killed 4 people? I mean yes, obviously the employer shouldn't judge or take that into consideration but does that mean they actually won't? not necessarily.
I thought the same thing as you at first but then it occurred to me perhaps the message he was trying to get across was “IF it had been your daughter” as in if it had been X or M that was speculated to be the target rather than K, he would not be casting blame on that girl in the way that he is perhaps feeling K is being blamed. I think that makes more sense in the context and his messaging has been a bit confusing overall thus far(which is completely understandable) so it would make sense to me if he was trying to say one thing and ended up conveying another. However, what he ACTUALLY said is exactly what you wrote, so take this with a grain of salt. Purely me trying to make it make sense and I could be totally wrong.
This info he tweets is from the MPD Press release - they way Brian tweets it is like he has some type of exclusives info - why not just attach press ? <modsnip>
Yes, it does make sense. If, for example, Kaylee was the primary victim and all the rest were collateral damage, it does pit the parents against each other. The other parents could say, what happened was due to YOUR child being targeted and my child would never have been killed if not for her. That is what he is saying. Then he went on to say that he told the other parents that should it turn out their child was the primary victim, he will not blame her or them for his daughter's death.
There was the recent case of the woman who provided DNA for a sexual assault case (she was the victim) and the DNA she provided was later used to link her to a property crime. I’m not familiar enough with why the CA laws allowed this or whether any other states allow it despite a federal law prohibiting it. She sued, the charges were dropped, and the law was modified to prohibit using DNA collected from victims to track those victims to crimes. However, I don’t know if that modification in CA extends to potential persons of interest who were not victimized or if any other states have local laws allowing retention of DNA provided by non-victims for purposes of ruling them out in cases such as this.
I might suggest that LE is knows better than most what will jeopardize the investigation - but that is purely my opinion. They are the only ones that have all the pieces at this point. It is not rumor and it is not speculation.
