I’m unable to paste a direct link but near the bottom of this media report is a media video taken from a helicopter the day the bodies were found.
MAP: Where the two bodies were found near Delphi
At about the 8:50 mark a residence to the mid left of the screen comes into view. Notice the driveway to that same property runs right beneath the long Monon High Bridge, viewed as the camera pans. In the past it was reported that property was owned by snowbirds and was vacant Feb/17. The driveway is also at the end of public road N625W, the house is at the very end. Coincidently, google indicates the Waste Transfer Station is along that same road, where RL was spotted driving while his licence was suspended.
If an attempted kidnapping was involved it’s possible “down the hill” from the end of Monon Bridge led directly to a parked vehicle along the side of that very isolated road. LE has never conclusively indicated only one killer was involved so it’s also possible another person was waiting in the car, on the lookout.
If the perp chose “the remotest place” as a preplanned murder spot as you suggest, then he must’ve been successful in somehow getting the girls “to keep walking and walking” because their bodies were not found “down the hill”. How would that be possible?
My theory is he wasn’t successful in an abduction attempt because the girls fled in a vain attempt to save their lives once they realized they were in danger and then were pursued. The perp didn’t necessarily cross the river at all, perhaps began firing as the girls reached the opposite bank.
It’s interesting to consider various theories, given very limited information has been released.
