He isn't the Walmart Abductor, is he?
He isn't hanging around random Walmarts across the country at 4-5 am hanging out looking for 18 year old solitary women hanging around there in their cars. Because vulnerable young women are not in the Walmart parking lots at 5 am, are they?
What makes this different? It's: THE SHUTTLE
It's
only because of the shuttle that she is there. Or anyone else is there.
He is there because he knows she is vulnerable and isolated at 5 am waiting for the shuttle. And especially on a Saturday. He can see there are more people in that parking lot to notice him M-F, but far fewer on a Saturday, so that's why he chose to attack her on Saturday, rather than, say , Friday.
He knows she is a her most vulnerable, he knows the shuttle schedule, he knows her schedule.
So how would that happen? BECAUSE HE IS LOCAL
This seems premeditated, personal. A grudge, revenge, payup time. I don’t see this as a random lurker nut. Far from it.
amateur opinion and speculation
This is so very targeted, methodical, cold, and dispassionate on his part, I can certainly see the personal (grudge, revenge, payup time) aspect to it.
I think he has to be local, and have a workplace he goes to and a place he lives in while his spare time is involved with this crime.
Probably likely he works M-F, during the day, but has no problem getting up early to follow her.
That's another reason why he chose Saturday, because he doesn't work on Saturday/
