I think the BW theory is one that LE should have investigated,
They did investigate him, fully.
what RA is accused of doing is equally implausible and far more difficult than BW taking them on a road to his home
RA we are to believe took 2 girls down a steep embankment, they all 3 had to have been walking unhindered ie not tied up in any way as to get down the hill would be difficult, he had to get both girls to the same spot to cross the river, the stàtes theory is he has a gun, but in going down the hill it would have been difficult to have it pointed right at the girls at all times,
All he had to do was point it at Abbys head, point blank, and Libby would have been forced to comply.
once down the hill he had to get them to wade across the stream and up very muddy steep embankment the other side, all in broad daylight, out in the open, and with no idea how many people were out on the trails that afternoon, still in broad daylight
He had been drinking, he was already suicidal so he didn't really care anymore what happened...he was severely depressed so doing something so risky was exciting...
(with the possibility anybody could have been hiking or walking in the area, or the landowner walking on his land)
no matter who did this, thy had the same concerns, but someone did it in spite of the concerns,,,
he had to get them both to take clothes off,
at gunpoint they'd comply
AW testimony wasn't sure if she took off bras and vest but she took off everything below the waist, he then had to put gun in pocket or somewhere else,
but he still had the knee;;;;
then get hold of one girl fatally wound her then do the same to the other in broad daylight,
broad daylight but they were in a remote pocket of private property--no one around.
he then redressed one victim,
I don't think he himself redressed them
and then in broad daylight left the scene on foot had to walk out onto a busy road to get to his car, he had to have been soaking wet from river and i expect he had blood on him,
And that's why he was seen by one witness...
LG testimony revealed was able to assert herself and would stand up for herself, but nobody heard anything that day,
The first thing he did was slit their throats---no chance to scream
Libby didn't scream earlier because he had the gun to Abby's head.
RA testimony was he was a fragile egg, seems to be totally reliant on his wife, is small for a man, and his personality IMO doesn't feel as dominant
That was the defense testimony about his personality. I don't think it is that accurate. He looked pretty aggressive and forceful in the police interviews, imo
where he could control two girls, even if at gunpoint, and then when he put gun away to get knife,
he did control them, put a gun at one girls head and both will comply---
At gunpoint, he orders them both to lie down face to the ground---he goes to the greatest threat, Libby, maybe straddles her on his knees, and slits her throat---
then does same to Abby
According to the crime scene evidence, Libby tried to flee but only made it to the big tree, she leaned against it and he caught her and continue slashing.
he could have just shot them, two shots in quick succession may not have caused alarm especially with testimony that hunting happened at the crime scene,
but it might have caused alarm with neighbours because it wasn't hunting season--and that was private property
no need for shots
and he then proceeded to spend more time at scene where he could have been discovered
killers are stupid, especially in the middle of their frenzy
So all that versus someone taking them into his house (I'm not saying I think BW did it,
Right, because he was at work when they were kidnapped...
I am just opining on the theories of what BW would have to have done versus the states theory of what RA has to do
The police were at BW's door, searching his property, interviewing him, and eventually looked at his gun, which was tested, and his phone, which was downloaded, and interviewed his boss, in an ongoing investigation.
So if someone living in that immediate area took the girls to their home they would have been caught, imo.
