I am pretty sure that someone here posted this link to a google map marking key locations : ** great map by the way, thanks so much for taking the time to make and post this.

I didn't know the camera was so far away from the blackburn house.
Another thought I had is that I just find it hard to believe someone intending to murder plans to walk away from a location where he has fired gunshots.
At the same time, I do get the point that I believe sapphire steel brought up previously a bit better now, as a reason for doing that was to be SEEN, and to be unidentifiable when SEEN. Meaning killer planned on gunshots causing to look out windows and say, "hey, I saw this guy with a hoodie on". If that was the only camera on the street and it was that far away, certainly that would be a reason. However, I think being in ANY car speeding away from the scene would have the same effect. for example the suv was noticed as odd.
I'll say I think it's plausible, but no more plausible to me personally than he was just fleeing and had no knowledge of that camera at all. Seems quite reasonable to think getting away from a murder scene quickly and not waiting for your ride to pick you up is plausible.
The gun location is the next part. I didn't realize that was so damn close and situated on a rather likely escape route. Makes me feel stronger that the gun indeed connected to the crime. Also fits both scenarios -
1)burglary went bad, fled, suv picked you up, gun out the window.
2)planned murder - leave the gun in an area it's likely to be found to facilitate the narrative you have planned.
both plausible imo
What this doesn't show is where the suv and perp were seen that was described as "neighboring streets" sometime after the gunshots. Plotting that eyewitness location might also make the gun drop location even more likely to be connected.
Next, the atm location would seem to be consistent with the general direction of the escape route. Geez, a time at which that happened would be great to know, I don't believe I've seen any information on that.
The stolen car recovery location - i honestly at this point don't see any concrete reason to believe it's related in any way. Unless it's the suv. -- a stolen silver sebring was reported as well, so I'm not sure which car was found there. I have seen reports that they were checking car for prints/dna - i don't know if that was suv or sebring. Anyone clear on this ? But if it's the sebring, i think the only thing that connects is that the perps in that robbery were wearing similar clothes and were engaged in robbery. I get why they'd be suspected, but the robbery being so far away and considering that the hoodie attire is like a uniform for such things and robberies seemed common in this area, I think it requires alot more evidence to directly connect to the murder.
I find it hard to believe with this data, the police don't have some other kind of surveillance footage on the likely route to that atm. I think it has to exist, but might take time to find and analyze. But it'll be found.
