This is kind of my thinking... I don't want to speak badly of the dead. But if BR and DF were best friends, then maybe DF and CD were supposed to take care of the others. We already know that DF willingly left with CD in a car.
Was JTP also a witness? Or was he in the wrong place at the wrong time and was just the "practice" round? Where was DF on Wed?
I also wonder if maybe DF tried to back out at the last minute when it started getting real and that's why his life was taken as well. Or CD just went off the deep end and decided to kill him too because he didn't trust him to not rat him out later.
So many possibilities.. of course these are just my theories and should not be taken as fact.
Good theories.
Something else to think about - In the past, I've had friends who have gotten into trouble with first time offenses in harder recreational drugs (not marijuana, make your own conclusions), and in lieu of conviction, they are sentenced to "out patient treatment" which a lot of times (depending on their knowledge of local drug trade) this also means you agree to become a confidential informant (CI) and eventually your charges are expunged. Do any of these victims have pending drug charges? This could be a retaliation in that regard. Sadly, most people can already figure out if you're a CI pretty quickly.
