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.

The ability to, once fixated on someone, to gather information about what they're doing and why they're doing it, and where they're going to be next, and literally to them,

play this out is not a very hard thing to do.

Most people don't do this because they have lives.

The fact that he was a vascular surgeon, that's a conduct inhibitor.

That would have normally stopped this person from engaging in this behavior because they have a lot to lose.

But it just goes to show you

the evil that creeps into the stalking realm of criminality where they just can't stop themselves.

And once they fixated on their target, and unfortunately, this poor woman and her husband, there's not a lot you can do to stop them ahead of time unless you're way out in front of them.

And clearly that did not happen in this case.

That is such a great question, Nancy.
