Do any of you agree with M. William Phelps and think Randi Gorenberg's killer was a different perp? I agree that Israel Keyes needs to be looked at
I feel I. Keyes killed Randi when he found she carried no ATM Card...that seemed to be his motive of taking these women...He knew she had saw what he looked like and I feel she may have tried to put up some type of fight with him, he was quick tempered and he shot her instantly..and I feel this is so much like Keyes, her purse and shoes were taken and she had on some really expensive jewelry, yet none was taken...Keyes didn't want anything on him or he never took anything that would possibly link him to a crime.....He would have had to pawn the jewelry or sell it...that would have been to close to linking him...the purse I would say had some cash in it and he wasn't going to leave empty handed...but I think Keyes did all the Mall shootings
Someone posted this comparrison in the Israel Keyes thread.
What do you think?!?

The similarity is chilling.
The crime was perpetrated by someone very organised, like Keyes.
Can we dare hope this is an answer?
I agree. Why did he let someone live though? That baffles me
Bullshark, I have thought about this a long time...Why he choose to let 1 lady and her son live......She said she begged him often to not kill her son....and the son was taking a bottle in his car-seat in the back seat....She said at one point the son dropped his bottle (and she thought to herself they were both dead) but he only reached under the seat, got the bottle and turned and put it back in the boy's mouth???????.....that puzzled me bad.....but I feel maybe for just a second maybe he got a glimpse of his own Mom nurturing him as a child???.....and this lady was so distraught and crying.....I feel he may have thought she would not remember much since she was so upset and often when you are as she was, your mind just can't remember a lot of things
But remember he told her to tell LE that he was SHORT and BLACK, he took her billfold and told her he had her info. if she ever linked him with this he would return and kill her....He sure had no good intentions for her but maybe because she tried to do everything he told her and from what she has talked, she never tried to put up any kind of fight nor cross him in anyway....He was a control Freak..so maybe by her not talking back or trying to put up any fight may be the reason he choose to walk off from her
But I do feel when she got officials to do the drawing and it was released to the public, he knew anyone could identify him, I mean it's almost him in person to me....I think that is when he got out of Florida and changed his MO from populated public places to saying he choose people in isolated places like hiking trails, parks, boat launchings and etc....HE RAN SCARED I feel and he knew if he did much in public he would be caught
He stated he got as much a thrill from following media coverage of his victims as he did the actual killings.....It is almost 100% proof this was IK....NO MORE KNOWN VICTIMS have ever been done this way since the sketch was released...and Alaska was the perfect place to move too and do his shady work
I feel that if this had not been so much like IK, he probably would have returned in the future and carried out the murder of Jane Doe and maybe even her son....I'm sure he was very angry with her for not telling LE he was short and black...but he knew better than to ever return to Boca....I'm sure the sketch is up in a lot of places there...He knew he would be caught for sure...That is probably the only reason this lady and her son remains alive today....I'm sure he was furious with her for this sketch

Keyes talked to the police when he is was being interrogated about killing kids. He said:
"The one thing that I won't do is mess with kids. That's kinda another thing that goes back to me feeling like I was starting to lose control a little bit, because I had never really thought that way until I had (my daughter), until (my daughter) was born. And then after she was born, I didn't, you know. Something kinda changed in the way I thought and I didn't want to do anything that would mess with kids, or whatever." http://israelkeyes.blogspot.com/
Keyes wouldn't attack people who had kids. If anything, he looked for people who specifically did not have kids. While Keyes did come to Florida, it was not until 2010.
More evidence that this wasn't Keyes is that victims were allowed to live. Keyes would never had allowed any of his victims to live, he was a thrill killer who had a fear of being caught. Hypothetically if he did commit these crimes, it would have been Joey who he would've allowed to live as they would've reminded him of his own daughter.
Keyes's known murders also occurred in more rural areas. The Boca Town center is buzzing during Christmas and would have attracted way too much attention for him. He was extremely cautious in not being discovered and therefore would not have committed such a bold and open act.
