I’ve been through one murder investigation of a closerelative so I can kind of see the pattern. LE views this as a puzzle. Thinkof yourself putting together a real puzzle. That is there approach. Does thisfit? Does it fit here? Is this from another side of the board? Is it the right piece but I’m looking at itthe wrong way and need to turn it? Orthrow it out.
Don’t expect a firestorm of information. They are still taking some leads but very muchless interested in the general public input it seems. There was a guy on FB yesterday trying toget “pertinent” info to the MPD but said they haven’t answered or gotten backto him all day. They either have oneperson they are vetting or are spreading their net wider. The arrest will be quiet. They have completely clamped on information,so that makes me lean toward the prior.
The cops have way better equipment than most of us amateurs,esp the feds and state. And a lot moreinformation. I remember seeing a prettyclear picture of the perp’s eyes on one shot, and all those I’ve seen since arepretty grainy. BB was stating that theywere sharing a bunch of it only with him. They’ve probably ruled him out as the perp. I’d think the hit angle is always on thetable but I think they read him like I do. And he’s probably not involved. If it was a hit, that would be phase 2after they get the perp but I’m thinking not.
What is the perp hitting walls and swinging his/herhammer? Before going to bat, you alwaystake a bunch of practice swings. Beforethe coin toss, a football player throws passes, punts, whatever he’s going tobe doing. This guy is not a vandal andprob not a thief. He/she is warmingup. Visualizing. Probably seething inside but keeping composure. Not a pleasant thought but most likely.
You can’t sue or blame the church for non-operatingcameras. Unless that is specified in thecontract (probably not). We could besuing all day then. And you don’t havea causal effect on the crime.
I know several were offended that people were being talkedabout (like puzzle pieces, I guess you could say.) But that’s how you need to look at it. We shouldn’t be doing it. Hmmm. I believe there is a very strongemotional connection between humanity. Especially murder. We have astrong sense of our own mortality, I suppose. You all slow down and look at a traffic accident (be honest). Dateline. CSI. 48 hours. I could probably list 20 of the top rated,main stream shows. All prey upon thisprimal instinct. Murder andmystery.
“Boy won’t you feel stupid if you were leaning toward thewrong person actually being guilty.” No. Not anymore than missing aquestion on my driver’s license test. Itexposed some people’s lack of faithfulness or truthfulness. Yes.
Don’t intentionally offend, be classy. The B’s were the first to say, “I’m gladevery rock is being turned over”. Justiceis primary here. So some details gotout that were embarrassing? My momalways taught me to put on clean underwear every morning, “Because you neverknow…”
So where are we? Ihad put out there who I thought was the most likely suspect. The person with the most colors and shapesof their puzzle piece completing the picture. But the longer this stretches out, the less likely it is. I’m thinking right now that it is at least50/50 someone not mentioned yet. Butsome cases take months and years to assemble enough evidence. But I agree with those that say it’s verypossibly someone that we haven’t heard of yet. I think the creepy email is a coincidence (whywould you foretell and leave an electronic fingerprint if you were going to dothis 3 days later.) The B’s take someheat but I think that almost any reaction they would have would be misconstruedat this point.
Expect it to be quiet (WS is miles ahead of the MSM). Shows again that more pertinent communicationis local, person to person. And then aquiet arrest will probably be made. Mostlike in the next week or two. Possiblymuch longer.
