How did they know the murderer, that just committed a double murder, who was on the loose and armed, was not just 4 buildings away, holding hostages at gun point?
How did they know, that there were not other victims, bodies, or others injured just 5 buildings away?
Bodies piled up everywhere. Everyone has a cell phone. VT is the most wired town in the US, based on percentile.
Anyone could walk in and hold an entire room full of people hostage. There could have been other unknown victims or bodies just 2 buildings away.
Get real indeed.
Yes, get real.
I asked you two questions.
Have you ever had a murder in your town?
Did the cops come to your house to see if you had bodies piled up or were being held hostage?
Cops just do not do that unless the person has been seen in the immediate area and they are pretty sure he is there.
The first requirement for that is to know who he is or at the very least, what he looks like.
Knowing he is white, black or Asian is not enough. They need a description and need to know that person is in your immediate neighborhood.
None of this was known until it was all over.
So I ask you again, when murders occur in your town do the cops come to your house to check to see that you do not have a murderer in your house?
I forgot one little detail.
You are right.
Cops should check every room.
So being (in your opinion, good smart cops) they go to the engineering building at 9:30 and check it out. Everything is fine. Students in class, prof on the job doing his thing.
Cops go to the next building.
30 minutes later, the murderer enters the building.
So what did the cops accomplish?
But they can’t go back to the building. They have to go through the other 99 buildings with however many rooms it takes to hold 26,000 people. Who knows, they might find something.
