I'm beginning to lean away from the terrorist theory. The more he is in contact with LE, the more I think he's just a severely evil nutjob. I would think terrorists would want to communicate with everyone thru the papers in attempt to create more terros, not just private messages to Mr. Moose.

Then again, the fool who tried to light his explosive shoes on board a jumbo jet last year was a ME-connected terrorist and isn't exactly the paragon of mental stability.

The evidence released publically so far is still ambiguous enough to support a ME-terrorist theory or a "lone psycho" theory.

What most annoys me is the LE haven't released enough info (composite sketches etc) to fully engage the public in the search for this killer. Good grief, let's turn this investigation over to "America's Most Wanted" and nab the guy before another week is out.

Im not sure if anyone else pointed this out. The threat to the children was, according to Moose, in the note in the form of a post script. If P.S. was in the note we are dealing with a home grown nut.

Plus, no political demands. On another thread a freeper calculated that if he thinks 5 people died needlessly, then he started calling on 10/3 (after the initial rampage). So it was always about money.
