Ok after reading all of the facts of this case, (at least the ones, here ) ive seen just about every theory on this boys death ,
Except one
I find it odd that this well liked kid would be attacked almost fatally 3 times, but NEVER see his attackers faces. NOONE could say a mean word about Bill, yet no one ever witnessed these attacks, the victim told his family he never saw their faces.
Being attacked damn near fatally 3 times, and left in remote areas it doesn't seem logical he would get in a car with anyone, especially not that close to home.
Each time the method of attack was strangulation, in one case with suffocation. Each time, the attackers left him in some out of the way location, supposedly left to die. But these reports of near deadly attacks, aren't reported to the police, till after his death. they are however explained to his family
I also didn't see any findings of any other injuries, such as facial bruising, defensive wounds, scrapes, scratches, cuts.. it seems at least from what Ive read that the only injuries, Bill ever sustained were these strangulation injuries .
I cant see a guy so scared, of someone he would walk away from his house, to a secluded location and let someone tie his scarf so tight around his neck with no fight, ...
That is ...............Unless he wanted them to , or he did it himself
I know this is not going to be a popular theory here, and I apologize to those of you who feel this is distasteful
I have seen a lot of conjecture as to this being a "homicide", and I'm not saying there's no possibility that it isn't ,and as a former law enforcement officer and paramedic, as well as a father, and brother, I feel for his family ,
But I have to take what the evidence points to , and I think the evidence is there and rather prominently to suggest a possible autoerotic accident, by someone who engages in autoerotic practices , possibly involving another individual .
I don't believe he was abducted, I believe he went with someone willfully, or met up with someone at a pre determined time
The Strangulation factor is way too odd, especially x3... often autoerotic practitioners will seek out some place secluded, to carry out their practices, some place they wouldn't be discovered, usually because of embarrassment the fact he claimed he was dumped 2 times prior in secluded places, and was found in a somewhat secluded place, ..seems to support that.
They use any variety of means to cause hypoxia, ligatures, suffocation mechanisms, sometimes, positional asphyxia...sometimes odd combinations, of devices, (inner tube/bag..etc)
This would also explain why he never saw his attackers, (there weren't any) and would easily explain ligature, marks around his neck if discovered.
Given there was DNA found there's also a possibility that he didn't engage in these practices alone, as is sometimes, the case.
This might also explain why I believe I saw in one post its not listed, as an unsolved homicide.
I find it very hard to believe (though I wont rule it out entirely) that three separate times, he was "forced" into these out of the way locations, physically assaulted 2 times, before his death , by strangulation, once by suffocation, and not freak out and get the police involved.
I also find it odd that the ONLY time DNA was found, was following his death, so the last assault the one right around the corner from his house, closest to his home was the only sexual one?.. but not the other 2, I find that unlikely.
Now I know this is going to draw some Ire and I apologize, but this is speaking from a Law enforcement stand point.
There have been quite a few cases, of autoerotic fatality which involved, the altering of the scene by parents or family who have found the deceased, mostly to avoid shock and embarrassment. I can honestly say that it wouldn't be beyond the realm of belief to say that the family knew it was such but chose to go with the homicide route, because it was "safe"
I know this flies in the face of what the reader is lead to believe surrounding this case, however, you have to let the evidence lead you, to the most likely possible answer,
Im sorry , but I don't think this was an intentional homicide, but possibly a tragic accident
