Come on.

Well, in my 10 years of working domestic violence and stalking related threat mitigation cases, unfortunately, the reality is the victim is never completely in the clear.

In this case, you have threats to kill.

If you take stalking and threats to kill, you put them together,

These are statements of future intent when you're dealing with these types of individuals.

And future intent means it could be a week from now, it could be 10 years from now.

And unfortunately, the lesson still has not been learned.

And that is when these type of men who have decided life without you is not worth living, it's not a matter of if it's when.

And in this case, I think that's exactly what we ran into.

I'm not surprised at all.

And in that moment, it's just very methodical.

He's not really thinking about consequences, really of any kind.

And to be good at what he does, he needs to surveil.

He needs to know how to get into the residence.

And the fact that he's there beforehand, that is just what stalkers do.

In every stalking case we have where somebody ends up dead, we find out that the stalker knows a lot more information

about the individuals that are murdered than we ever thought they knew.

And I would not be very surprised at all in this case to find out that he has a lot more information and knew a lot more information than anyone thought that he was in possession of.

Well, you know, if somebody is obsessed to this point and obviously they haven't moved on for years and years, what they're doing is they're gathering intelligence information, whether it's through a friend of a friend of a friend, social media, maybe gaining access through, you know, known, shared or

pass passwords to get into email accounts.
