How did she know who followed her home to tell the agent it was Mark Evonitz. Who BTW was not the guy who tried to flag me down. Nor was he driving either of the above mentioned cars.
In 1999 no one suspected Mark. No one ever heard of him.
eta I THINK Carmelito Shemo pointed Darrel rice out in court.
I am sooo far behind, but wanted to respond to this.
I wrote: "Interviewed before Evonitz was confirmed as the Spotsylvania girls killer, Aidan Adrien Yates told state police Special Agent David A. Russillo that Evonitz was the man who followed her home from work along U.S. 29 in Culpeper in either August or September 1999."
It goes on to say in the article that she saw Evonitz--he tried to convince her she had car trouble.
His name is Richard Evonitz, not Mark.
Wow! Someone tried to flag you down on 29? How scary! Did the guy who try to flag you down look like RAT? I'm sorry I missed your post, so I didn't hear your story and what all happened. So glad you are OK.
I really think there could be more than one person flashing their lights and trying to pull over women. Evonitz told his friends he did this. Several women have ID'd him. The women I read about said the perp looked really trustworthy and had a goatee. Evonitz looks way more normal than RAT. RAT looks creepy, like Gollum. Evonitz looks more like a regular guy.
I would love it if RAT was responsible for all of the unsolved killings on 29, the Colonial Parkway, Shenandoah National Park and more. But It might be helpful to read about the Evonitz angle, because than that might narrow down other women who RAT is most likely connected to.
This article really gives lots of information about several of the murders. For instance, as I mentioned the knots in the Shenandoah murders were midshipman knots--Evonitz was in the Navy. Well, maybe RAT was in the Navy! There's a lot of info in the article.

Also, I hope now this spurs the FBI to follow up with DNA testing to rule out Evonitz--the article is all about how LE dropped the ball on that--causing even more grief to Alicia Showalter's family who just want answers!
I keep harping on this because there are just so many abductions and murders in this region--it helps to be able to consider all the angles and sort through what police have been looking at already with regard to different cases. JMO
