Just guessing - the gun he used couldn’t be traced back to him. Probably prepared the cabin ahead of time to be soundproof, and some method of restraint. The way they say she was targeted, it sounds like he decided he was going to kidnap a young girl and so he got the place ready first, then I guess went to another town and drove around til he picked a target. Maybe drove thru the streets after school let out to see who was playing out in yards. Picked her out, cased the house to determine her parents were the only other dwellers there. Did the deed, took her straight to the cabin, didn’t let her see the outside for 3 months. No criminal record so he wasn’t worried about leaving DNA at crime scene. JMO
