I’m there with you, puzzled. So much about this case has been puzzling. Carter said it again in 2019: “To the murderer, I believe you have just little bit of a conscience left, and I can assure you that how you left them in that woods is not what they're experiencing today.”

Then there are the signatures.

In the three years since the murders, police have released very little information about the crime scene, including how the two teens were killed and what kind of physical evidence was present.
But rumors have long circulated that the crime scene was bizarre and shocking to investigators, with unusual elements that police have been reluctant to reveal publicly.
Now, Ives reveals that the crime scene was nothing like murders he had encountered in the past, where typically a body is found with some evidence such as shell casings present.
'There was a lot more physical evidence than that at the crime scene,' Ives said. 'And it's probably not what you would imagine, or what people would think I'm talking about.'
'It was just not your normal "a person was killed here" crime scene, that's probably all I can say about it,' Ives said.
Ives said that the scene was 'odd' and displayed at least three 'signatures', which are unique behaviors by the killer.
However, Ives raised the possibility that elements of the scene had been staged in an attempt to trick investigators by sending them down a false path.
