Serial killers are difficult to catch because they usually have no connection to their victims, not because they are smarter. Most other murders are commited by someone known to the victim.

Theres no proof he wasnt investigated in 2002. WAPOL have stated that he was in fact investigated and eleminated as a suspect. Even if they only looked at him in 2008 he wouldve been eleminated based on DNA. Theres also no evidence of BRE owning a Commodore sedan. More likely this was Donald Morey.
