Lafayette man killed, found in suspect's apartment

"Police suspect 19-year-old Talmadge Russell Jasper killed 29-year-old Ryan A. Martin... whom officers found inside Jasper's... apartment on Thursday."

"Jasper told police that Martin gave him a ride home from work Thursday morning and stopped in at his apartment.... But Martin left after receiving a phone call or text, Jasper told police....But Martin hadn't left."

What could be a motive here for a 19-year-old to murder a 29-year-old man?

I think it was jealousy. MOO
 
What looks to be Jasper’s Insta is still up: Talmadge Jasper (@crypt1d) • Instagram photos and videos

Super-weird, IMO: this kid looks on paper like a fairly brainy (he was on Delphi HS’s National Academic Quiz Team, per NAQT’s own website: NAQT | Tippecanoe Valley Quiz Bowl Conference Tournament | Individual Standings) and somewhat nerdy teenage boy who likes animals and hiking in the woods—not necessarily a dude one might expect to have a restraining order against him. As we all know, though, an individual’s squeaky-clean and wholesome exterior appearance is usually not a reliable indication of their interior goodness!
 
Yes, we have seen that often - in cases here.

Violent rage behavior can come out at very young ages. I'm thinking something like narcissistic rage that psychologists state can erupt over the individual even feeling "slighted".

This is terrible though. A young man is dead and for what - for dating his ex-girlfriend. Unfathomable. So deeply saddening.

welcome to Websleuths! Would you please contact a moderator so they can designate you as a “verified insider” (which means you can post without needing to provide media links to back up what you say)? It takes almost no time at all, and I’m sure we would appreciate hearing more of your perspective as this story unfolds!

Thanks for pointing out the whole local insider thing for me, I didn't realize that was a thing, I've just sent an email with all of the info for verification so hopefully they get back to me quickly
