That wouldn't be James Corneilson, would it?
And didn't Nigel and her meet at the theater? I would expect you'd to have met her if she was working there during her stay at your place off Walnut Lawn.
Can you clarify something Bartt: did Suzie ever have problems with directions? I was told she used main roads frequently because she wasn't the savviest when it came to directions. If you could shine light on this--it'd help out with something. Thanks!
I can probably answer that question.
A close friend of the family told me several years ago that she was “directionally challenged” and would always take the same route to and from the theater for fear of getting disoriented.
Along this vein, I was also told that Suzie asked Stacy to follow her home as she had never been to the Battlefield location and was concerned she might get lost on the way home. It has been assumed that Suzie was asking Stacy to follow her home as though Stacy didn’t know the way.
I believe, but stand to be corrected, that Stacy had been to the Delmar address on one or perhaps many occasions.
Yes, I have talked to Williams at Coffee with the Chief. Nothing came out of that. Nothing useful anyways.
I don't have a clue on the motive. Just a few hunches.
Let me run this by you then.
An individual on another forum with whom I had hundreds of private conversations with once said that the perp or perps had no interest in the money in Sherrill’s purse because they were interested in something much more important or incriminating. That might explain why there was discussion of the shoes being in disarray. It has been postulated this was because the dog might have been shut away in the closet. But if memory is correct, the dog was either running loose in the house or a bathroom.
Another person I have been in touch with believed it was drugs although that was a popular theory at the time. I have no knowledge of that personally.
If I may, let me provide what I believe is a simple and easily understood motive. I’ll believe this until a better scenario is advanced.
In my opinion and based on the last official police statement, the perp was portrayed as a single male “kidnapper.”
That is in the singular. One male. One kidnapper. No mention of multiple perps.
I think the perp was hanging out at the party and was looking for a good time. He established a casual conversation at the last party. When it broke up. He went to the Battlefield address and merely followed them home. He then enticed them out, possibly impersonating a police officer. Once in his car, he tied them up and took them to a second location where they were murdered.
Thoughts?
