You hit the nail on the head. Nothing less than that. I really love and admire that old lady.In a way, she brilliantly but subtly, cut him down, imo.
When Doncourt refers to people saying "No", pushing away, and other strings to pull, I wonder if she's referring to POI's refusing to submit DNA. It was already stated they do have suspects.
I believe she was referring to a particular known individual. It seems they have an idea who is responsible for this, but the individual is not cooperating with LE.Yes, it sounds abit strange. But she meant that he is a callous criminal that will never repent.
Just a correction in the post quoted above: I believe the criminal entered and left the house through the back door. I was checking the area and there was a big forest in the back. This is the safest way not to be noticed.This is an opinion, not wishing to push this as a fact (for all purposes I am just a layman).
But I have checked the area around the house in aerial 1985-1998 photos and it seems there was a big forest in the back of the property. The dwellers were unprotected from that side/direction as far as criminals were concerned.
Although it was February and some of the trees were without the leaves, it is reasonable to theorize that the killer at least escaped from the back of the house.
This is why the construction workers did not see anything.
I might be wrong (bear with me)but I read somewhere they found small traces of appeared to be blood in the back (worth checking on this).
My opinion (not stated as a fact), just food for thought:
He left his car in one of the lanes nearby (Close to the forest in the back), then walk his way up to the front of the house (so as to have the door more easily opened by Beverly who waited for him to say the bed was sold), and after the murder left quietly from the back wearing some kind of coverall.
He might have been someone who not only knew her behaviour very well, but was possibly stalking her from a privileged position, and knew she was alone with a little kid on the early morning of 23/02/1987. He also knew the place well.
And I dare to say, someone who knew her enough to identify her phone number in the ads so as to call and hang up when she or her cousin answered the call, and strangely might have also known her mom phone number and thus planned carefully to deceive both women into thinking he was interested in the water bed (a clever ruse).
Maybe someone she knew? It would have been even easier to open the front door for him.
But again, just a theory not wishing to state it as a fact.

I might be mistaken, but I was under the impression that the front door was unlocked, but closed. Lorene commented it was unusual for that door to be unlocked, and she knocked before entering. I'll agree the killer might've started to exit that way, then changed his mind.Just a correction in the post quoted above: I believe the criminal entered and left the house through the back door. I was checking the area and there was a big forest in the back. This is the safest way not to be noticed.
The front door was open yes, but it might have happened by accident, carelessness or the murderer considered leaving through the front when he changed his mind for some reason.
Especially a prepared assassin...Also checked Beverly's pics (one not available on the internet), she was a small lady and had no chance at all once the assassin entered her house.
What if he was a foreigner? Of course there are other Americans not in the DNA files as yet, but I wouldn't rule out a foreigner, or an American of recent foreign origin (or foreign parents).They certainly had the DNA cause this poor woman was raped and murdered. Apparently, The DNA is on the national database, obviously there was no match, perhaps he has not committed a crime. The only way to solve this crime is to put the DNA on the GED website to see if there is likely matching DNA's from long distance relatives and friends of the killer, all they have to do work on this diligently.
See article below. The only suspect was possibly a man who was interested in a waterbed advertised in the paper.
Who Killed Beverly Jaye Potter Mintz? Nearly Three Decades Later, Murder Remains Unsolved
What are your thoughts? As retired military I do think its entirely plausible that he slept with her but I had trouble believing he randomly murdered them. He was acquitted at one point, and the witness (Owen Breck) recanted his statement.Very familiar with this case. I was a juror on the second trial.
Not to be disrespectful at all, but that only proves they slept together. And it would not have been all that unusual if she had.Not sure how you can explain away the state crime lab results which showed with 12,000 million to one certainty that the semen from the swab belonged to Hennis.
There was dna found under their finger nails that they refused to test to either rule out or rule in Hennis.I think there is also an eyewitness account as well as dna match that was collected from Katherine. Yes, I read about that there were several other unknown dna s found that was collected from the house, but not on the victim.
He could have also been in the military, they travel around a lot.What if he was a foreigner? Of course there are other Americans not in the DNA files as yet, but I wouldn't rule out a foreigner, or an American of recent foreign origin (or foreign parents).
Good day. You mentioned the late Katie Eastburn. Do you think there is some kind of connection between the two cases or coincidences?She even had dark hair like Katie Eastburn did, and bore a bit of resemblance to her.
I don't know , sorry.Does anyone know the name of or episode # that dateline did on this case?
Assuming they did one.
They are very similar cases, except Beverly’s case has never been solved and Katie’s has.Good day. You mentioned the late Katie Eastburn. Do you think there is some kind of connection between the two cases or coincidences?
