A little odd they aren't naming the suspect? Possibly a minor?

Or a victim ?

 

[PRO MO]

seems pretty standard to withhold the name until they press charges. But it sounds like it's just a matter of time as he led them to the missing evidence and has been cooperative.

Or a victim ?

The victim is named and available online

I meant maybe the killer was a victim of the deceased ?

thats a hell of a weird thing to jump straight to that kind of assumption.

thats a hell of a weird thing to jump straight to that kind of assumption.

Really ? Wasn’t there multiple stab wounds? Sounds like a crime of passion?
Is it weird-er to think someone just happened upon this guy and decided to gruesomely kill him for no reason ?

Lets not forget the Paul Hutchinson story ? You just never know anymore , just saying ....

was he a hunttalker? if so, i'm bowing out of this place.

The suspects name comes up from a Coeur d'Alene sentencing in 2012 for a hate crime - self described skinhead who was arrested for harassing a black guy who ultimately knocked him out. Sounds like he'll be right at home in prison; hopefully he never sees the outside again.

It’s not often that hate crimes end so poetically. But two recent stories offered up nearly perfect — even comic — portrayals of justice at work.

Hmm...Imagine that, it wasn't MS13 or Montana gang members or the cartel or an illegal immigrant. Just a plain old white skinhead.

Yeah, how dare anyone assume it’s MS13 or gang members or drug cartels. Bunch of damn racists……
