O/T PARIS on news...........shootings and explosions
Why do you think the killer waited until 8:30, when DB returned home, to leave? Do you think he sneaked out the back door as DB walked through the front door?
The guy in the hoodie was seen at the other home where goods were stolen at 5:30. Because they took larger merchandise from that home, it would have taken while to load the SUV. The guy in the SUV likely saw DB leaving and considered it a good opportunity to hit another home. DB left around 6:11 AM (according to MSM reports). Gunshots were heard by neighbors around 6:45 - 6:55 AM. I will look for the times, but I think the burglar was seen outside shortly after the gunshots. 8:30 is when DB returned home and found his wife.
Do you have a link that says the perpetrator was sitting in an SUV, or even hung around, for three hours?Ok so if he saw Davey leave, that means he was sat outside in the cul de sac from 5.30 to 8.30.
3 hours of a black guy in a black SUV sitting in a (no doubt) mainly White cul de sac.
So why did no one see him sitting there for hours? Or driving in, driving out, twice over?
Did he go to Maccas in those 3 hours, waiting specifically for Davy to go to gym?
It just doesn't make sense.
In a cul de sac, any car that suddenly appears while you are rushing to get your kids and self out the door on time, WILL be noticed as its something that disturbs the routine, even in a tiny way.
I always had my eye out for strange cars, because I had little kids and was paranoid as heck.
There will be similar smother mothers in the cul de sac.
Or a retiree who's enjoyment is watching the littlies go to and fro.
People think "no one's home during the day" but I can tell you, people are home. And watching. And taking notice.

No, he didn't sit there for hours. The husband found his wife at around 8:30. Reports state that she was shot much earlier... around 6:45. That killer was most likely gone by 7:00 -- and it was still dark then. I doubt that anyone was out walking their dog or jogging in the dark, and most people are oblivious to what's outside that early in the morning.
Maybe the person who thought they heard a gunshot could have been a bit more attentive to checking things out, but as I said, many people are slow to react early in the morning.
Right, but so early in the morning who is going to do anything about it? They would notice it and get back to starting their day. The people who were home - maybe they're talking to LE about what they saw. I don't think people are likely to call 911 every time a strange car shows up in the neighborhood.
Are you saying there was never an SUV on the street?
respectfully snipped to save space
"He said that one suspect was seen on security cameras walking near the Blackburns' home."
does that mean more than 1 suspect...............could be 2 or more!
Well I feel like a idiot for blaming hubby. Sorry.

Police: Suspect in killing of pastor's wife seen on surveillance

Police believe that a burglar or burglars entered the other house around 5:30 a.m. Tuesday and took televisions and laptop computers, which they believe were put into a dark colored SUV.
Investigators believe the suspect then saw Davey Blackburn leaving his home about 40 minutes later. A neighbor reported hearing gunshots at about 6:45.
"We believe that the people saw this as a home where they could get in and take some things. It just so happens that Amanda was home ... and she was murdered," said Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Capt. Craig Converse.
He said that one suspect was seen on security cameras walking near the Blackburns' home.
In one shot too, not three including one to the hand. This guy made a mess I don't believe a pro or even someone who planned ahead would make. I think he wasn't expecting her to be awake and panicked when she put up a fight.

Since it would be very unusual to hear a gunshot in that neighborhood, I suspect neighbors didn't realize it was actually a gunshot until they learned of the shooting and then made the connection. They may have been startled by the sound, but dismissed it as something as benign as a truck backfiring. MOO
This is what I'm trying to figure out SapphireSteel, are you saying that what LE has reported about what was seen on video is a lie?
I think it's possible, and while he was walking around someone else was behind the wheel.
You used the word "HE" it could be a she. Giggle
If I was inside my home and heard something sounding like a gunshot at that time, I might notice, but dismiss it. If I was outside and heard it coming specifically from inside someone's home, I might take it more seriously. There probably were not a lot of people walking around outside at that time of day.

Wouldn't all the dogs in the neighborhood bark hearing gunshots?
I know mine did during hunting season.
