shannon gilbert's actions speak louder than words. not to mention LE won't release the 911 call as it has unspeakable value. if that 911 call were merely the ramblings of a person on drugs, i'd think le would have released it by now.
i've never heard or seen anyone on cocaine bug out like that. lsd maybe, not cocaine and yes i've my college days and seen a lot.
what it does seem like though is that certain people are trying to make shannon sound like she was irrational bipolar on drugs delusional to the point that they want her to sound not credible.
ita that the killer is keeping trophies of some sort.
burlap decomposes, although i'm not sure what role it plays or why the killer chose that to use to dispose of the victims. he could have buried them naked with nothing. used the burlap for transport, then burned it afterwards yet he didn't.
i have to disagree about the killer's burial techniques. if he wanted his secret to be kept and these bodies never to be found he would have buried them in all different areas 100's of miles away, different states. they never found 3 of rifkin's 17 victims. this killer is dumb in the sense he puts them all in the same place. it seems like a ritualistic ocd thing to do. you find one, your find them all. if he were to have really disposed of them, then you would find just one or none. if he had a boat he could dump them out in the atlantic.
if you package a body (as you call it) i'm guessing your referring to preserving it by burial? it seems this killer wants the bodies to decomp fast. burlap decomposed, as plastic may not so quickly. plastic would preserve. i think the killer goes to extremes to remove the clothes since he doesn't want any fibers or dna on the victims. i wouldn't be surprised if he cleans them before going to the burlap then disposal. the only reason he would clean them would be to rid of evidence, as he in no way cares for these girls. to him they are disposable.
it's as if he wants his credit for the killings while not getting caught and remaining anonymous. they feed off the anon media attention to their "work".
yet the killer takes precautions to remove everything off the girls to make it harder to identify them.
here's an article mentioning some hope for le with technology in this case.
