Im no expert, far from it, but I do have an interest in “True Crime” and have read many stories of cases, both famous and not so famous.
One thing I will say is that cases of someone being snatched off the street and murdered by a complete stranger is very rare and in most cases there is a link between the victim and the murderer. Of course that’s not to say this isn’t the case here, but if it was, that for me would make it even more shocking.
My theory is, and I was talking to a German lad I was crewed up with last week about the same, (when talking of well educated people of his nation committing atrocities during the Nazi regime) that we are ALL capable of murder and horrible things....it’s in us and circumstances dictate that we never, hopefully, have the opportunity to do anything....but it’s still within our capability.
I’ve always found it an interesting subject
