Yes, those opportunities are there. The other point is that this was on a quiet night and not a party night.Agreed. I feel this was a targeted attack. I’ll be honest. There were numerous times in college where I didn’t show up back at my home anywhere from 12-8AM. That’s just college. The killer KNEW everyone was home IMO. Which makes me think he knew who lived there, he knew what his targets were doing, he knew his threats, and he knew where his targets were. He ALSO knew. He wouldn’t be interrupted. This is someone close to the victims.
Not everyone is exclusive to being a part of campus when you see their connection to the community. An acquaintance of someone close enough to know what is happening on a particular night could be just as easily be aware.
If thoughts were penetrating my mind about wanting to commit the act (God, forbid me), then when it would be known that that evening would be a quiet evening, it would trigger an awareness of an opportunity and then lead to a heightened alert, then a persistent focus on how to take advantage of the opportunity. Then, stake out the home. And act quickly.
I can't imagine another scenario other than familiarity, persistent thoughts, fantasy in how to commit the murders, strategizing about the best opportunity, and then awareness of an opportunity, heightened alert, staging, then commitment to the fantasy, and follow through of the escape.
Independent of the relationship. This act seems like it had persisted for a while in some form and when the opportunity arrived, they knew in detail what they would do.
Targeted indeed.
