"a random type situation that turned into a horrible event"
(Sheriff Maier)
"I really don't think Coston knew Jacob or Jessica at all," said Sheriff Maier. "It was just a random chance that they all landed in that spot at that time." "You seldom see that in a murder situation. He really didn't know these victims at all."
(Sheriff Maier)
"We've asked ourselves 10 million questions," said White County Sheriff Doug Maier. "I think we now know what happened on that riverbank."
(Sheriff Maier)
Authorities say they believe they know the motive but are not releasing those details yet.
(generalized statement supposedly derived from quote of Sheriff Maier)
The above are several different statements made by the Sheriff which lead me to believe that first of all imo there very likely is a situation that occurred which then led to the sequence of events of a double homicide.. It's in what Maier states in the first quote that leads me to believe this..
He says it was a "random type situation" that occurred imo BEFORE the murders.. Kwim?. As in for example I see it as for whatever reason Jake/Jessi were in the truck headed to/from where they were camping/fishing.. The "random situation" occurred as the two in their vehicle crossed paths with Coston in his vehicle.. And there are several scenarios that would fit such as road rage, a minor collision of some type, etc.. But something random and standard of circumstance occurred that the majority of times would have not led to harm coming to anyone..
Yet in this situation whatever that random occurrence was that took place between the couple and Coston is what thereby triggered the horrendous sequence of events that led to this maniac Killing the two.. Does that make sense?..
Because to me from what I've heard thus far it sounds as tho something similar to what I described above is what Sheriff Maier is indicating as having happened.. He is very convinced that the victims were random strangers to the murderer and he says they all "landed at that spot".. Imo that too indicating complete happenstance in their crossing paths..
He goes on to say they feel certain" they now know what happened on that riverbank".. Imo obvious he is speaking specifically of Jessi's murder and disposal of truck.. This imo is the second "spot" . Moo.. Moo.. Moo..
Let me be clear, I'm using "spot" as a word to describe the location of which an event occurred at..
So, the first spot would be the "random type situation" " that Maier speaks of that brought these two world's colliding.. Imo that first spot likely was on one of the roads in/around the fishing, camping, and home areas of Coston.. The first spot would be where they made initial contact such as a fender bender or a road rage incident.. That is what I'm calling the first spot..
Imo I find it possible that from that initial contact made at the first spot it then led to Coston following the two back into the remote area of which they were camping/fishing.. Maier indicates "they now know what happened on that riverbank".. It is that location I'm calling the second spot where imo the random type situation had taken a drastic turn culminating at that second spot, the riverbank where Jessi was killed, and Jakes truck was pushed over the riverbank, down the embankment and there it stayed along with Jessi's body in the bed of the truck along with debris of branches, leaves, etc which somewhat concealed her body..
Imo its anyone's guess as far as how and where Jake was killed.. And of those details I do not yet have any understanding.. Hopefully in days to come we will learn more to fill in the blanks especially where Jake is concerned.
But as of now with what we do have stated by the Sheriff, himself I personally believe that it was a situation similar to what I described above..a "random type situation" that led to their paths crossing and from there Coston turned it into something literally out of a horror movie nightmare where two young lives were cruelly and brutally taken with zero empathy, compassion, nor even value of their human life, period..
All in all tho these are nothing more than strictly my opinions at this time with the so very little that is known.. I'm quite certain as more info/details come to light that my opinions will likely change somewhat or even a whole lot.. Only time will tell.. All jmo..
