How many think BG, old and new, monitors/comments on the boards/blogs/pages regarding this crime?
IMO Sadly, I think it keeps the crime "alive" for him and is exciting to him.
I agree he monitors WS and other sites. Sometimes I will read a post by someone and get the feeling “it’s him”I completely agree. I’m sure he’s in all
The FB groups too and had been loving the attention given to his disgusting crime. I think he may have had to go change his undies after the last presser though. He has to know they’re onto him.
Im puzzling myself!Plus there were people already at the trail when they were dropped off. If any of them saw LG and AW there they could’ve told someone. They were dropped off between 1:35 and 1:45 (I’ve seen varying drop off times but this is the range based on what KG has said). LG posted at 2:07 - so there’s 22-32 minutes between drop off and bridge pic.
There has been such an emphasis on the last minute aspects of the trip, but really there are plenty of ways someone could’ve found out they were there.
Im puzzling myself!
Does anyone agree that one of the following must be true If the perp was told, either deliberately or inadvertently, that Libby and/or Abby were on or heading for the Trails:
The perp must have known the girls and targetted them specifically
Or
The girls were unknown to the perp but he felt that , whatever his knowledge of detail, it sounded like an ideal opportunity.

ETA ...looking to target...
Law enforcement has given the general public instructions of who to look for; a man. We have a sketch which is representative of what this man might resemble. We have an audio clip of a man’s voice.
I think it is important to follow LE instructions in who we are seeking vs put out information that may confuse efforts, and unknowingly abet the Perp’s ongoing escape.
Amateur opinion and speculation.
Prior to the PC I would’ve said the second choice. Now I’m leaning towards the first choice. I don’t actually think the intent that day was to murder, but something happened and murder was the result.
There was a case a while back in my area involving 2 teens. The boy thought the girl was going to have sex with him and when she didn’t he killed her with an item at the scene. Not saying that is what happened in this case. Just saying things like that do happen.
Yes. IMO the fact that he has made attempts to conceal his involvement indicate he knew right from wrong which, I believe, would eliminate an insanity defense?

"Surprised a bit that there hasn’t been more TALK in town since the presser"
Perhaps all in town are afraid of embarrassing themselves with a suspicion, that they have, but themselves consider highly unlikely.
Why couldn't the ones who know just give anonymous tips?
IMO He stalked the Bridge and area for months maybe, just looking for an opportunity to exercise the crime he had ran thru his head over and over. The fact that there were 2 vulnerable targets was just a bonus of sorts for him. Now, he luxuriates in the publicity aftermathI think it is between the two. He might have slightly known them from SM, but he was not specifically targeting them to kill. He was targeting "someone", but his rage was instant and spilled over them. I think he needed to be in treatment, for a long time, and it had been neglected, and I do blame whoever is close to him (if anyone is), for not realizing the scope of his emotional issues. (However, it happens, think CW who had no prior indicators of predictive value.)

IMO I agree. He posts and (disgusting) enjoys itI think it's likely, he could have even posted on these boards or other sites, regarding the crime
This gives me the creeps, but it has happened before.I agree he monitors WS and other sites. Sometimes I will read a post by someone and get the feeling “it’s him”
Anyone else ever think that?
^^ This, maybe. Why do I think of O.s.k.a.r P***orius (South Africa) now ....??I think he needed to be in treatment, for a long time, and it had been neglected, and I do blame whoever is close to him (if anyone is), for not realizing the scope of his emotional issues.
I like your 1st theory.As stated upthread I go back and forth on a daily basis on how and who committed this heinous crime and my theories are exact opposites
1st theory IMO is this was not planned but BG found himself on the trails that day upset over something that had recently happened in his life such as a breakup with GF, huge fight with parents and because he does not handle disappointment well something triggered and these poor girls were the recipient of his uncontrolled rage
2nd theory- also IMO was this was a planned targeted revenge killing. I don’t know that the perp knew it would happen that particular day but somehow he found out the girls were going to be there and decided this was his chance to get revenge for a reason unbeknownst to us
Two different perps- two different reasons for the murders
