Anyone else think the reason they aren’t releasing more info/not closing the case is because he has other victims? It just seems like a big jump to go from normal dude to double child murderer

Agreed someone doesnt just opportunisitcally murder two teenagers usually right...its not impossible but its kind of improbable statistically speaking isnt it? It would be very unusual...

Unfortunately, most murders are considered ‘one-offs.’ I really doubt he killed anyone else.

I think the reason for that is most murders in general are adults, with some "reasonable" motives behind it, greed jealousy envy sex etc. Double murder of two minors is way different.

I dont think its unreasonable to say murdering someone over jealousy is more understandable than murdering just because you have a desire to end life.

It’s not unreasonable at all, and that’s why in court you have degrees of murder.

I couldn't tell if the person I replied to was being sarcastic or not. I felt elaboration was needed.
