:thinking: Putting some thought into the homeless killer's method of operation. I started remembering back, earlier this year, there were a series of fires started in dumpsters, truck beds, and some close to apartment buildings. A nasty killer, but not always an arsonist M.O. He has stabbed and attacked his victims. He hasn't set them all on fire.
He picks vulnerable homeless men sleeping alone. He hits in the early morning hours. May disguise himself some. Hey, maybe it's a wig under the hat. Comes prepared with gloves, etc., He possibly takes a bus or trolley. Familiar with the city enough because he seems to know where to find his victims and hit undetected.
Did he kill victim #1 first, then go buy the gas can? He came prepared with gloves, but needed to buy his fire starting fuel. Was that attack what he planned that day?
On the 4th of July, he does seem to head towards Ocean Beach, but not for a family picnic...he attacks two that day. Did he stay at the beach that day? He didn't hide his face to the clerk, or on the gas station video. Somebody should have recognized by now.
Where would you find this guy in his everyday life when he's not killing homeless people? What's your thoughts on his M.O.?
