VA VA - Scott Ratigan, 24, found murdered in apartment, Arlington, 17 Jan 2020

If the person on video isn't really the suspect than maybe it's a lot simpler than police think. It is kind of convenient that the sister left for an hour and this happened within that time frame. I wonder if the police talked to the friends that she met at the airport? Not saying she was involved but if it was a brother he was living with, instead of a sister, I think they would be more likely to look into that angle.

My Amateur Opinion Only

I have always found this very, very, very suspicious.

This case reminds me Anita Knutson. No enemies, sound stabbed in the heart in her bed. Decades went by and turned out it was her roommate with the convenient “not home” story.

If my memory serves me correctly, I thought there were people who have posted on this thread in the past who knew that the sister lived in the building but didn't know if SR lived there or was just couch surfing if he lost his job. I thought there was information that the sister and her friends were going to a game or something, don't remember all the details. So if that was true, they would have been gone for quite a while.
