I've been lurking and following this case from afar for about a week now. I have to say, this feels like one of those cases that will either ultimately be solved & when details come out I'll be thinking, "wow, I can't believe I missed that" OR a case that no one except LE would have guessed the killer and crime details because some of the leads/evidence were totally out of left field.
Does the search warrant mean that RL refused to let LE search the property? OR does that just indicate that LE is crossing their t's and dotting their i's?
I find it hard to believe that LE and the FBI don't have the technology available to rule out RL as being BG based on the video and audio recording.
I also find it hard to believe that RL could be organized enough to commit this kind of crime. Leaving bodies on someone's property who is a known alcohol abuser, who may or may not come across as a little strange, seems like a great way to throw off LE. With that theory in mind, it would have to be someone with a previous knowledge of RL and his behavior. Family member, friend, local ... ?
And RL IS behind bars currently, right? Just want to make sure I'm not confused over here. If he is, is it because they want the real killer to feel safe enough to perhaps make a mistake and/or perhaps RL is starting to get a little antsy with the police presence and uncooperative? I think someone with run ins with the law, who obviously based on court records has at least in the past had issues with alcohol, might start to resent LE being present frequently.The people I've known, family included, who had issues with drinking didn't exactly think highly of law enforcement. Not labeling alcoholics, just my experience. It's as if anyone who gets in the way of the booze is the enemy. I think most legit alcoholics would probably think in those terms. Yes they would feel empathy for the murdered girls, but the whole thing is intruding upon their lifestyle.
I may be dead wrong, but I just don't feel RL being the killer.
