I so agree with you, Skigh.
From the beginning, I reserved 1% of my brain to this weird opinion:
1) Someone dressed up EXACTLY like RL.
2) Someone stalked the trail until they found two vulnerable victims, and murdered them.
3) The same Someone placed their bodies on RL's property.
To me, it is almost seemed like someone was trying to FRAME RL.
But why? Who?
I do not think it is to frame anyone deliberately.
I think it is his disguise so he chose someone who he has observed and at a distance he (in disguise) looked like.
so he thought any witness seeing him would be describing an older man known to frequent the trail.
I think BG enjoys acting.
