FBI is just stating that Osbourne is a "person of interest", not a suspect. They want to ask him some questions about his friend Mohammad. I saw an interview with the car lot owner who sold Mohammad the Caprice. He paid $200.00 for the car, it was sitting on the lot for over a year! The Caprice was originally part of a New Jersey area municipal fleet.

Yeah, and as of an hour before their arrest, John and John weren't suspects and we were as much as told they weren't the snipers. Even though they were. I don't imagine this Osbourne fella is terribly happy about this little call from LE. He's gotta know that there's a distinct possibility that they want more than just a friendly bit of chat.

They seem to have done a lot of driving with a $200 car. I take that would have been what took them to Montgomery, AL, and then back to the D.C. area for the killings. The Sept. 14th shooting in Hillandale was presumably en route from NJ to AL.

I'm just wondering where Osbourne is, too. He may be at the bottom of a river...OR he may be part of the necessary support structure for a covert operation such as the sniper case. Covert operations it is, and WillyMo didn't get it from the Army. He's acting on orders from someone. As Mo1 said (paraphrasing) : "people don't rob a liquer store then go shooting people just like that."

There's still the question of funding. HOW much did he pay for the car? "$200.00"? Wow, that's cheap...but then there's licensing, registration, taxes, tags, title transfer...maybe Osbourne was the cash cow they needed in order to get on the road...all the way to Alabma where they committed murder in a liquor store. (weird)

Also, the two Amigos were on the road for a long time. They needed ammo. They needed Gas. They needed food...they probably sponge-bathed in restrooms (IF they even bothered) and they needed clothing which was reasonably clean and in relatively good condition, in order not to draw undue attention to themselves.
