That's what I think too. It could be a combination. Someone 'helped her memory' by guiding her toward the wealthiest players.
Maybe the reason it took longer to identify David Evans is because her helpers had to research him to make sure they didn't strike out with another player who wasn't even there during the supposed main event. They found a target who had all the credentials: (a) wealthy family and (b) was there that night and (c) was automatically suspicious because he rented the house. It was a given that his DNA was going to be on SOMETHING that could be tested, and maybe someone was smart enough to figure that out.
A FReeper once said that she described Finnerty as the "skinny little one".......6'5"?
Good point. I have seen this mentioned elsewhere on the net as well. The 3 players she chose were all very distinct-looking, not only in comparison to each other, but also when compared to the other 40-or-so players in the lineup.
Skinny guy, big guy, mustache guy.......Surprised there wasn't a "top-hat guy" in there....
