Your logic makes sense. Except, in your scenario, how do we explain the burnt feet?
What if she had fibers from his vehicle on her shoes?
Do we know she was actually in the perps vehicle? He could have just been waiting for her in the woods as she jogged by.

Impossible to know right?
Scenario... He barely won the fight, now He tries to strip her (she was found naked). He's already bleeding because she tore into his face, arms or hands. He gets the shoes off, shes on her back kicking and fighting. Hes trying to grab and control the feet and gets blood all over the place.
Its a disorganized, unplanned mess. Now he has to get rid of the blood he got on her hands and feet. Some got on her face...
Again, just a possible scenario. I could make up 50 more stories on how it went down....

If there's that much blood he's going to need to burn more than the hands, feet and part of the head.
I see the burning as panic as opposed to ritualistic. If this were planned for "ceremony", id suspect the perp to be far more prepared by ensuring he had more time to experience his fantasy. This is a rush move to cover his tracks - not organized, not a pro, not an SK in the making, nor someone who collected road kill and cut up rabbits in the cemetery. Someone who flipped out and came to - enough to know what he had done and perhaps have remorse, another words, not psychopathic. Needed to cover his tracks the best he could with what he had.

God Bless her soul. She fought and we know that. Any perpetrator who does anything like this needs to be caught and this one will hopefully be stopped fast before harming someone else.
I respectfully disagree. These woods are not a place anyone would hang out in. There aren't trails for hiking and it's not a place for hiking, running, etc. Anyone who wants to do that would go to the mountain, as a few have mentioned. I think the odds of a man driving by and spontaneously deciding to kill Vanessa are extremely slim because there is not much traffic on that road and the timing would have to be perfect. Add to that the idea that he would take her someplace else if he had a car on the road. Add to that the Vetrano murder. There hasn't been a murder in town for decades and five days after an NYC woman jogging is killed a second killer murders another NYC woman who also happens to be jogging without planning the crime out in advance?
I just can't see it, no matter how hard I try.
