I thought that initially until the most recent press conference when LE alluded to it not being a chance encounter.
Edited to add link:
"One of two things happened. It was a chance encounter — that's possible. Don't think it's likely, but it's possible," Bursten said. "Or that person knew that they were going to be there. That's possible as well."

This has been my hunch for the past 3 days. Days that I've spent just riveted by these girls story. Imo, he's familiar with this area and has spent a great deal of time here at this bridge,creek and trails. I also have this very speculative "feeling" that he has some tie to either one of these girls, but possibly their family members.....friend of a friend, friend of a coworker, friend of a neighbor. An acquaintance type of connection.
I'm not sure if they has been much discussion regarding the BG having his hands in his jeans pocket or not, but I find this very telling for several reasons:
1. I feel that it shows that he is not only familiar but comfortable on that bridge......Done that walk before! Probably many, many times before!
2. He's trying to appear nonthreatening and what better way than to conseal his hands while walking!
3. Imo and a huge hunch; is that he is a "hands in the pants pocket" kind of guy. This is a normal, comfortable secure position for his hands to be in. Daily part of his normal physical demeanor. I think your either a hands in the pocket kinda guy or your not! It doesn't mean that on occasion you wouldn't put them in there if your hands get cold, but if you were wearing a jacket similar to the one BG is wearing in the photo, your hands would probably be more comfortable there.
My theory comes from having a husband and 2 sons and all the maleness that surrounds them. Any thoughts?
