Also, it was proved in the trial that they abducted her from her house just after 3:30 A.M. and the 911 call about gunshots fired came in just after 5:00 A.M. so she was with these 2 monsters for an hour and a half as they drove around with her trying to get money out of ATM's. Pure horror for anyone! Still makes me sick after all these years, yet he says he is not a monster!!!!
I think it was all a lark to those two convicted murderers, Lori. As I said earlier, when Lovette held up & shot dead Mahato weeks earlier in Mahato's apt in Durham, it worked for him then (and he did get away with that one for while and still hasn't gone to trial or made a plea on it yet).
This time the two buds were indeed looking for a rich sorority student. I also think this lark was mainly Lovette's idea. I remember the ear-to-ear grin he had when he was using that ATM to get Eve's money from it.
They were about to close in on a different young woman as they stood in the shadows of a sorority house where they watched her while she was on the phone in her car in the sorority parking lot, but she saw them, got spooked, and drove off, thus making them go look for another.
And they walked about 50 yards or so down a little side street & saw little Eve on the sofa in her living room studying. So they paid her a visit with the cheap little .25 cal pistol and the "baby gauge." And her bank account balance was about $9,000. "Wow! we're cookin' now, dude."
Monster? He!! yes. For a second time.
Life without parole? He!! yes.:stormingmad:
