I don't even know where to start, so many comments and thoughts came as I read that very long article. I won't even remember them all due to its length. Pretty good timeline though at the end. And detailed.
There were mistakes in it, one is that the surviving roommates were not both on the bottom floor as DM says. They also said both roommates had went to bed prior to the others coming home and did not awaken until the next morning. While the killings did happen in the wee morning hours, they give the impression the roommates slept through it and this is not true of Dylan who was awake and saw him.
I don't know that I will get or can take time for all the remarks I want to make and I also don't want to make one convoluted post so let's start with this one. From the article:
Steve Goncalves said that his daughter was stuck in her bedroom because of the property layout in Moscow, Idaho, on the night she was murdered.
Daily Mail can be hard to trust as to exactness sometimes and I haven't seen the show but I wonder if this is direct quote of Steve? The "because of the property" layout makes it sound as if the bed HAD to be against the walls due to how the room was or property was, etc. And we can intuit that may be also means she couldn't get out of the room due to layout or some such, hard to say.
IF this is a direct quote and that's a big IF, this sounds like lawsuit talk, as if they are going to sue the property owner, house builder, etc. or whomever, but most likely the owner. If it is NOT a direct quote or he misspoke and just mean how the bed was in the room, etc. then forget everything I just said.
While I ENTIRELY understand how stressful and awful it is to hold in all details and stay silent, I am having trouble understanding this family's need for one to tell of the gore, for another to believe their daughter was not the target but also a need to believe she fought back or would have escaped and the need to believe he intended to kill only one person. ALL of this may be true but even if it is, the NEED to convince others of not his guilt but these other things that are not necessarily to do with his guilt so much as their need to believe something AND share it is odd to me and I don't understand it.
IF he only intended one victim and IF things went awry, then that negates a lot of the overkill buzz and attention and focus of out there things like serial killers, other victims, budding serial killer, Dennis Rader connections and more doesn't it? It makes him not normal but more of a "normal" killer, obsessed with, rejected by or knowing ONE victim and intending her as the target. I can only assume they mean Maddie was his target and of course her body was in their daughter's way to safety. I have to say that if she had managed to spring from the bed I find it doubtful she would have survived., made it out of the room, much less out of the home or to safety. Xana and Ethan did not and there were two of them. To be fair, this is probably somewhat normal in such an awful grief process as a murder brings with it I guess although I don't entirely understand the need of some of it or to say it publicly. The need to blame may be normal BUT they aren't really focusing on him so much and are even saying he only intended to kill one which may be the case but still...
So as to the serial killer talk and things like that, it all goes out the window pretty much and the idea of him intending to be a known mass murderer goes out the window too IF he only had one victim in mind. This changes every thought we and the rest of the public have had for almost a year. It may mean he had NO IDEA Kaylee was visiting or there on the second floor. IF THE GONCALVES MOTHER'S STATEMENT IS TRUE AND NOT JUST A NEED TO BELIEVE IT OR CONJECTURE. It means he only had murderous intent on ONE that he maybe knew, obsessed with, was rejected by, fantasized about, etc. AND it may mean he did not even intend to kill but to rape and strike fear into, WHO KNOWS? But he found Kaylee present. AND a DOG TOO. He wouldn't have necessarily known that either then. He may well have believed Maddie lived alone on the top floor and he'd just enter and go up and then leave and go out.
That's enough for now. It is enough to point out what this statement DOES. And it does a whole lot more than that. It harkens back to the police saying there was no danger to the community and this family stating they thought there was one intended target etc. It doesn't lessen that BK killed four people but it lessens in a way his intent and the grand scheme of it all, etc. and how bad even he appears.
I don't know that what they are doing and saying is wise.
I have a lot of other thoughts about the defense attorney and some of the stuff in here. And about the show and publicity and them speaking on it etc. I don't though have hours to share those thoughts and probably won't get around to it. We will see.
I'll mention just one. They say the defense atty. accused the cops basically of planting the DNA on the sheath. This is downright DUMB for a lot of reasons I can mention. Absolutely asinine. It is dumber than the no alibi alibi that may appear but not sure so they don't know if he has one but maybe he does depending on what others say or comes up, etc. People can laud her all they want. In the beginning I bought into her reputation and thought oh NO, they gave him a GREAT attorney. I'm not on that page any longer. Far from it.
In closing, I feel Kaylee's parents are blaming Maddie and whatever brought this one without blaming Maddie or quite saying it. HE is to blame. The layout of the home is not and Maddie is not. And I know they do blame him, I'm not saying they don't but they are also looking to blame other things and people it seems to me. I do think this is normal and a part of the process for sure but the getting on TV and doing it etc. is a step beyond that by far. You are to keep it to yourself per LE. Our family leaked or came close at times. It is VERY difficult not to when it goes on for years, etc. I don't know about my other family members but I found a friend or two I trusted to keep it and let me vent and leak privately. Ideally you would not even do that but that need is THERE., holding such in is not almost HUMANLY possible, let me tell you, and it is a very big expectation to expect victim's families to do so.
I think I haven't wandered too far and have kept it pretty clear and focused on each topic. So I will stop here.
Oh yeah, that guys real.
