The list of victims suggests a Hispanic perp.
Sexually motivated serial killers generally kill what they are attracted to/what matters to them. Most of the victims are Hispanic.
I assume that, if RH wanted to be a "copycat" killer, he wouldn't have gone for someone who killed just one person. He'd likely go for someone more infamous/feared, like Joel Rifkin.
This makes it more likely that he knew Bittrolff at the time. Perhaps through hunting or construction work; JB...
The table may also be a way for RH to explain "cutting sounds" coming from his basement, if anyone ever asked him about it. Then he had something to show for it; "look, I was making this."
AE had nowhere to go to. It can be very difficult to escape a poor or abusive relationship. They also has a disabled son. She may well have made a conscious choice to stay with RH. And she may have had an inkling of what he (may be) capable of.

It makes sense, I think. RH wanted to make sure that his target's guard was down.
She was followed by a "man who banged his hands on the wheel of his truck."
The description of the perp doesn't say that he is an "ogre", though. "A medium built man of 5'10 to 6'0".
I assume RH has always been an "ogre."
