I haven't followed that closely, but this makes no sense to me.  How do you stab 4 people to death, including 1 male?

I'd have to assume they were held at gun point, and the stabbing was personal.  And/or multiple perpetrators.

It was supposedly personal with at least one victim purposely targeted.

Just another example of crazy, depraved disregard for life.  Seems like there's a couple of these every week (not necessarily multiple victims).

Sickening.  Still looking for the murderer, right?

Yeah, and initially the University told students it was personal/targeted and nothing to fear.  Turns out may have been random and gained access thru an unsecured door.

Stabbed while sleeping, apparently.  At least one girl fought back, so I was thinking it was odd no one heard anything or was alerted.  Then you remember college kids that had just got back from a party, and maybe all were passed out.

Two girls were not attacked.  It's bizarre.

I read there were defensive wounds on more than one of the victims so at least tow tried to fight back. 

I know it’s weird that two girls in the same house were fine but in College the house I lived in housed 9 people and it was a huge really old house that had been turned into essentially a duplex but since we all rented in together a door that split the two inside the house was always open that said from one area where bedrooms were to the other area it would have been almost impossible to hear. 

So they finally arrested a suspect, and it sounds like he might literally have been studying to be a serial killer.

Plans to plead not guilty. I suppose that's not surprising, but you hope they have some evidence against him because if all they have is a car and some creepy shit...

Sounds like FBI had him eyeballed as he drove across the country; even had Indiana police pull him over (twice) to get a look at him etc...

Such an intriguing case/scenario....its been wild

That's interesting.  I hadn't thought much of it, but I only heard about the one traffic stop.

The father hasn't had much to say, which is telling.  Normally parents are always "my baby is innocent!" even when they're literally caught with a smoking gun.

Supposedly, they also used DNA tracing from 23 and Me type sites to confirm his identity. Which is kinda crazy.
