He was at the Hyatt over Labor Day meaning all weekend per the VI?
And then he was on September 3rd after running errands in Ashland?
All not verified I get that.
The "friend" in the video I think
@Tresir posted said he did not agree with what the resort was doing, felt it wrong or illegal, then the resort got red flagged (did he cause that?) and were to stop building and owners told him and others to build anyhow and he refused but his coworkers did not and it upset him greatly that his coworkers didn't align with him or something on that order. I am paraphrasing. When was that and was he still working there or receiving an income from them? Why would you still go there? Oh I get it is the closest bar and restaurant, etc. but this is some pretty big stuff. Was he paid in cash when he worked there and did he carry a bar tab? I'm serious. Did he deal in cash or reported income? I am looking for motive is my reason for asking.
You said he didn't suffer fools gladly. That remark kind of bothers me in that it just again gives an idea of a moral superiority or condescension or attitude. I'm not saying that to diss Dave but that knid of opinion or attitude could certainly rub others very wrong. And I also have to point out was he never foolish or make a foolish decision. We learned of time in the federal pen, a string of what was it assaults and domestics on the dissolution of his marriage, an acrimonious divorce (I had one so believe me I don't judge) and beating up a sex offender and doing time over that! It doesn't go over well when some think they know what is right and wrong and tell others what they are doing wrong when their own life isn't a great example. And that's WITHOUT if you are whistleblowing or trying to get someone to stop what you don['t like. All I am saying is it paints a picture of a man who could easily create a lot of enemies for himself.
I'm sure he was awesome with a lot of great traits but someone killed him and it seems to be someone/s who was very angry. Of course it could have been over cash or drugs, who knows.
I think the resort thing is more likely than the relative I'm sorry to say. Yet I also think it could be neither and he pi**ed off someone on a different level, another bar patron, a husband, a former coworker, I don't know.
The relatie from what you''ve said, or the VI, I get them confused yeah I guess has said some things and not all make sense or seem questionable maybe. Like didn't you say he was at the Hyatt but then said the said Troy had been seen with someone that looked like Dave? Which is it?
I don't know but what I do know is the more learned, the less clear cut this is. I'm also not sure why you dismiss the resort thing so easily. Or money, power and the area you yourself say is so gorgeous and valuable.
Although I'd more often lean towards something being "close to home" or someone "closer to him" but I don't mean someone from out of state. He pi*sed off the wrong person or people it seems to me.
Of course I'm not sold on anything yet. I also feel if his and Troy's murders are connected in any way it is in no outright or obvious way. I'm not even convinced that's the truth.
With all due respect, the firewood and Pilot theory is less crazy than all the things you think this relative did including torching Troy's campsite two weeks later even if it was the same day as a memorial. I am finding that all pretty hard to believe. There's no benefit.
I've ruled nothing out though of course and no offense intended.
But I tend to think if this relative has no alibi and could be shown to have been in that area and more, this case would have been a lot more heated up and that would be one red hot lead, and that's never been the case.
Sorry, just where I'm at at the moment. I think it was someone local and someone he dealt with or encountered in his daily life or a connection to such.
