Well I've been a websleuther for quite a number of years. But every time I try to wield any authority concerning my wonderful detective prowess, I end up looking like an idiot. So...that being said, I more or less think the perp is a man. When I see all the gear that person has on, it baffles me as to who would have the physical strength to take on someone like Missy, who was in peak physical condition. Of course, the perp most likely caught her off guard...but still, it would take some strength, with a hammer, to kill someone like Missy. I am thinking a man who had a height advantage might be our perp.
Also, I have seen this time and time again....but husbands who are gone when their wives are murdered are very suspicious by nature, at least to me. Seriously. How likely is it that you would be gone fishing on the very early morning your wife gets killed in church? This sounds like a Lifetime movie, not real life.
I would love to see a profile of this murderer. A violent, close up, blunt force murder like this automatically leads us to believe it was someone very close to the victim. The rage involved might make us think of a woman...a jealous woman. Or a desperate man who needs money.
The entire family is a mystery to me, Lord love them because I know they are victims. But the interviews that last on and on, the letter writing, and the FIL's laughter while at the dry cleaners gives me an eery vibe. But heck, I'm suspicious of the rain. So take it with a grain of salt.
And oh yeah...the walk of the perp. Everyone is mentioning the feet. But look at those arms. The way the upper body moves...and the arms swinging like they do. I don't know any women who have that kind of upper body movement at all. It almost looks like an older man. But heck, what do I know.
After 5 days and countless hours of reading all these threads and trying to catch up, this is it. This is all I have. I know...it makes you sad, doesn't it? I'm not much of a sleuth after all.
