Telling in one of two ways: one, the innocuous way, it’s that he was driving in a way that wasn’t his typical morning commute — that route says he drove north toward Greenway rather than West-Northwest to his office, his office being close to the neighborhood where his Facebook profile self-reports he grew up (Bellaire). With that, maybe we ask ourselves, why was he driving that way coming out of the West U virtual plate readers? For him to have been a victim of foul play and say already carjacked at that point, with another person in the car, logically that person would’ve had to have gotten him at his house. I find that improbable (I don’t naturally think of carjackers willing to take on a man 6’+ in a large unique truck and then torching the truck …) but I am open to considering other views. Two, this is a Houston-raised man with a local family and many, perhaps most, of men raised similarly would be men of faith. I don’t know this, but I am of the probabilistic opinion that he and his family belonged to a church, and Lakewood would be a likely choice given where he lived and his demographics. Look: I am a Catholic yankee ivy corporate girl from a dark blue section of a blue state, and if I were under tremendous stress and it was 5 AM and I was thinking about something, the odds of me being at the chapel at St. Bartholomew RC locally are close to 100%. I wonder if he spent a few minutes at a place of refuge, goes the theory of (2) in this case. I think it’s (1) or (2). Purely MOO.
