Any info about him growing up?


seems very normal family, two sisters that are therapists, mom actually posted about tragedy of uvalde and against guns and for mental health resources.
no info on dad
fellow phd student said maybe he seemed socially awkward but nothing stood out.


Where are you seeing this? [b]God his poor family.[/b]


+1 Yes. No privacy any longer. Their work addresses and names are out there.


No, the poor families for those four victims. Could care less about his family and no I do not believe for one moment they did not know something was up with this freak show.


I don't think it's fair to blame siblings.

Did they say his connection to the students or their university? Is he a pa resident?

He is a PhD student at Wash State U in Pullman which is <10 miles from Moscow where the murders happened. Not sure if there are connections beyond that. Kaylee's parents said that they are not aware of any connection, but obviously there could be a connection they are not aware of. (Not even in a nefarious sense - besides maybe closest friends/roommates, it's not like parents would usually know the names of people who their college kids are studying with, in class with, chatting with at a bar/party, etc.)

He could have seen the two girls out and simply followed them home.

You can have empathy for the victims families without villainizing the suspect’s family.


Agree with this Can't blame the siblings for something their brother did

Or he could have been following them on Instagram. There was a post on Websleuths that he was following 2 of them on IG and they could have posted their whereabouts that night.

OMG!! This is something parents need to tell their children. Do not give your info out on social media.

It’s not. It’s a normal, common thing for lots of people to do; 2 years CC to save money on tuition, live at home, then transfer to a 4year for the degree.
The killer part, though, that’s not part of the plan.

Agreed.

I mean in terms of stress, living on your own, completing research and a dissertation, etc. It can tip the scales for someone with underlying mental health issues.

PP here. Thanks. That would make sense, but one article indicated that they had his DNA prior to tracking him down. Didn't make sense.
