I might make weird hand movements when I shouldn’t.

Like stabbing and slashing movements?

“I would see people in the windows almost every night, probably four or five nights a week.”

That’s a lot of DNA to process/exclude.

Self described socially awkward and a budding lawyer, this guy should be a shoein for the potato state GOP. Ask him a question about sex and if he stutters and stammers and sweats and gets a red flushed face he has it made in the GOP.

However, the “ruthless” online rumors, as Reagan describes them, have prompted the law student to begin carrying a gun around campus, he said.

"I used to carry a knife, but ... but ... I lost it. Boating accident." [/jk]

Red herring.

It is one of the frat boys.

Frats are tight. They will all gather round to protect him.

But the cops very likely have his DNA and are planning his arrest.

Law student that hasn’t learned to shut up when he should be serving cease and desist letters.

The cops will be questioning everyone on that street and probably all the adjacent ones as well hoping somebody saw something.

Doesn’t make him a serial killer. Interesting that he states he’s carrying on campus. Guns not banned?

Lots of people think they are "Great Detectives".

They ain't.

And they make life hell for the innocent.

From what I understand one of the girls had an

“only fans” site.

If true I might start look for one of her customers.

Is he a suspect or is the media doing another hit job?

This whole case is odd, wonder if it is as keystone cops as it sometimes reads? Surprised that only weeks later that they collected the cars from the property. What else have they not bothered to investigate? Is there some type of cover-up under way?

Maybe hand movements like an autist would do. He might not say he’s autistic bc people expect Rainman, not a law student.

I think the local cops are only in charge of the investigation “in name only”. All four of them.
They brought in the Idaho state police and FBI within a couple days.
I would also think they are coordinating with the WA state police. Moscow, ID is right on the border with WA. Plus WA State University is eight miles away in Pullman, WA.

Agree with the theory that the killer was an involuntary celibate. Suspect he stalked one or more of these girls. If there are surveillance tapes of these girls going about their business, they ought to be reviewed to see if a common male appears. He may be the stalker/killer. Also this case is reminiscent of the “unabomber”. The killer may be a schizoid/high IQ type who once attended but dropped out of the university but hung around. Some professor or staff may have a suspicion who he is. Also given his affinity and skill with knives, this killer may be a survivalist and have a cabin or sorts in the deep woods. Hiking club members should be interviewed and asked if they came across some unusual cabins with animal skins stretched about. Perhaps the university’s ROTC unit did a deep hike and may have came across something.

Sad but the longer this goes unsolved, the more likely it won’t be solved.

There are several things here that haven’t seem to be addressed:
1. Fact: 4 people were stabbed to death while 2 other people in the building slept through the event. Nobody awoke while people were being slain, or the other victims would have been aware.
Question: Doesn’t that imply that the killer had knowledge of how to kill silently with a knife? Doesn’t that imply he knew how to ensure the wounds would be such to prevent the victims from ‘crying out’.
These facts suggests at least a ‘trained’ individual. The choice of weapon, a K-bar knife (military) also suggests that this individual had training on how to kill silently.

While I applaud the police looking at this from all angles, the aforementioned suggests not just military but certain training within the military. This probably implies that it is not some ‘frat boy’ or angry stalker or law student. Hopefully, they will ‘professional opinion’ on the ‘style’ of the stabbings.

It’s someone who is jealous and was likely spurned or “insulted” somehow by one of the girls.

Ashley Banfield, who has set her sites on this poor guy, is one of them.

She is remembered for singling out an innocent man in the Elizabeth Smart kidnapping. She and her reporters harried this poor man who was totally innocent.

Result...SLC cops arrested him, beat him, poor guy had a stroke in prison and died.

Banfield was fired, but somehow...here she is again trying to convict an innocent man.
