| #5 Those DNA services were the key to finding the Bay Area Rapist guy who had three other labels based on where he was living over the decades. There were no other viable tips in the case. I can understand why family members often overlook killers. I don’t think it is willful blindness. Parenting and profiling are different skill sets. The lawyer father in Aruba who facilitated the coverup of the girl’s death seems like the exception. I don’t like the government having access to a comprehensive DNA database. I also really don’t like rapists and serial killers. |

| #3 /\ Very interesting observations and comments. Add to that the 'timeline' of the white Hyundai media releases. "Hey Leonard, that looks just like Bryan's Hyundai." |

| #2 Consider this: Dad flew out to Idaho to drive back w/ son for Christmas. As a parent, would it not be logical to pick up on child’s (regardless of age) changes in behavior? Unless he was as out of touch as those Michigan nutcases that bought the gun for their school-shooting son, he had to sense something. And i suspect those two traffic stops in Indiana were little more than FBI confirmation and info-gathering events. No matter how guilty this pos is, that cant bring back those 4 that were killed and lives changed forever. Wonder if his parents have increased security against some other nutcase wanting revenge against them for their son’s acts???? |

| #1 I suspect the authorities were operating more on their 'Tips Hotline' than technology. DNA matching might have provided the confirmation. I could be wrong however. I appear to have been wrong about the multiple killer theory. |
