I mean, yes, many of us suspected, and there's a reason for it. Without the SA, what possible motive would you have to harm a child, right? A child you're related to, no less. So the reason we suspected it is because it makes sense, in the context of the crime. It makes the crime make sense. It frames the crime into something we understand a little bit more. It's still a senseless crime. We're still angry. Like nearly every case here, the victim didn't deserve it, and there just isn't enough justice in the world to cover every case on WS.
I also feel as though Lizzy was a proxy for her mother in AW's mind, and he long may have harbored highly inappropriate sexual feelings for his sister - hence his blinding rage at observing her happy relationship with her life partner.
He makes my skin crawl. I wish he'd slither into a (dark, uncomfortable, pointy-surfaced) hole and disappear forever.
