That cuts deep my friend...I live here too. Hey at least we're not Florida!!
I keep having trouble with why this wasn't just a drive by? What is with the conversation? After the gun was pulled out, they didn't shoot immediately.. there was more words and a gesture with the shooters left hand. If the motive was to kill her, why draw this out.. Why not conceal yourself? Why keep your hair down and not have a hat on? Unless that's a disguise, im not sure of the logic of it all..

Yes- everything about it screams that it was deliberate, planned, and personal. She parked so she could get away. She left the truck running. She jumped right out of the car with the gun (e.g. she had it on her lap). She came up the driveway with a gun in her hand. She said almost nothing before shooting multiple times even after the victim was on the ground. And she must have known the victim was going to be out at that time, on that day.Looking at that video, it sure seems deliberate and planned. I was reminded of a case from many years ago where an ex-girlfriend of the victim's husband stalked, kidnapped and murdered the wife of her former boyfriend. Even though this couple seemed happily married at the time, some people are slow and methodical in their plans for revenge.
Usually, garage sales are advertised in news circulars, etc., and most people are out earlier setting them up. I hope LE is checking phone records from days leading up to sale. She may have contacted the victim earlier regarding that particular garage sale and items being sold. It's not difficult to find out names and phone numbers if an address is listed for the sale. ALL MOO.
I only hope LE is all over this and knows a lot more than the public. Hopefully, an arrest warrant is ready to be served.
Spot on. Even a rouse of "asking when the garage sale starting" would make no sense. This person felt they were wrong by her or that the victim was standing in their way so much so she had to be eliminated... Which brings me to another thought of what we are saying...Humans under stress rarely function like Terminator Robots. The conversation and hand gestures could have been any number of things:
- A demand for an apology
- An explanation / justification as to why the attack was occurring. Such an explanation could also be the murders way of justifying the attack to him/herself one final time.
- A taunt.
I agree that it looks as though the shooter has an incredible amount of personal rage for the victim. But, given that this was just your average citizen who seems sweet and a little nerdy, I would think the list of people she has enraged would be very short! Surely, they have someone in mind. The thing that throws me off is that LE is asking for tips. Perhaps they are hoping the tips will lead to more evidence on the person they are suspecting?Spot on.

To know where they live.. to stake out the house... to have a loaded weapon ready to go.. I might be going out on a limb here but it boils down to three things for me..
- What Power does the victim have? At work? In their Star Wars Legion they belong to? (Husband was in command of it I believe) or Relationship wise?
Too much talking for my liking, was something left behind? A taunt? Someone wanted her to know why she was meeting her demise and went out of their way to explain it.. (The brutality of standing over her though..)
- Random attack or mistaken Identity... (Least likely)
- Love interest gone wrong (popular theory)
- Someone slighted by the couple over Cosplay or work (reminding me of the video game tournament murders of last year in Jacksonville) Was someone no allowed in the 501st Legion or slighted at work..?
I feel you are right in that LE hasn't said everything they know.. In many cases when it comes out what LE knew prior, that wait to see people incriminate themselves by confiding in someone, trying to destroy evidence to a lesser degree, missing work or acting strange etc. It does pose the question how dangerous this person if they do have a clue is to society or prior gun/criminal violence.. If we take this at face value as a "woman" in a robe killing the victim in cold blood in the morning am.. Im sure she is unhinged in other aspects of her life as well.. If this is something more calculated, they just in fact might need more help from the public..I agree that it looks as though the shooter has an incredible amount of personal rage for the victim.

Looks like a news conference tomorrow. Sheriff Gonzalez and HCSO Homicide Unit to Host Press Conference at Crime Stoppers from Harris County Sheriff's Office : Nixle
I also noted her time of death in the notice, 1:40 pm. I hope she was able to communicate more than we know before her death.
I’m new and learning. I hope it’s ok to share just opinions.
Here is why I think the video is of a man dressed to conceal identity. IMO
1. It’s hard to see in the video but the way the hair moves and hangs in face during the last shot looks like a wig to me.
2. A bathrobe conceals body shape somewhat. But why would one wear one to commit a murder if you were female, unless it was spur of the moment? It would seem very cumbersome to run in. And, it wasn’t tied?
3. It appears the suspect was taller than Elizabeth.
4. I get that females drive trucks, especially in Texas, but a higher percentage of males drive trucks. 14.4% if truck registrations are to females. http://salesfuel.com/girls-love-big-ole-trucks-and-country-music-too-2/ Yes, I get it could have been borrowed, or rented as well.
Thank you cocochanel!
I hope you guys will choose to look at this video. Family members, friends remember woman gunned down outside her Tomball home I just did a little search for news and found this story right away. The video is only the part when the suspect approaches Liz, so no need for warning with it. But, what is interesting is I can see the hand movement better. It almost looks like Liz doesn’t see a gun and the two are talking with hands or she is being shown something?
Also, to me it looks like when the suspect approaches she has on boots that go to mid calf? Do you see that? Maybe some like this? https://www.6pm.com/i/9213525/style/4680268/0
I’m wondering if it could be an outfit to look like a Star Wars character , a cape not a robe? Or a robe to look like a cape?

I think that if the romantic rivalry does not pan out, that is a very good foundational question to ask.
I also like your inclusion of even cosplay power / authority. Somebody blurring reality and fantasy, or whose total sense of self is based on the role play, even symbolic power can be very real.
I would also add family power / authority- was the victim ever seen as a source of authority, or the source of an action in a family dispute? Likewise, was she ever a spokesperson for a particular side or position?
