[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On the way home, I heard Pat Collins report that the 40k had been requested on Monday...has that been confirmed elsewhere?[/quote]

NP here -- the only question I had about the OP's excellent summary pertained to the request for 40 k.  I do not recall reading that that happened Thursday am.

On the other thread, I found this excerpt from a recent Washington Post article -- a flurry of telephone contact on Thursday morning.  Despite the dcum poster's "strong inference", Mr. Savopoulos' objective not explicitly defined.

Newest update Washington Post:

"The documents show a flurry of phone calls among Savvas Savopoulos, a bank, an accountant, the personal assistant, a construction company executive and Savopoulos’s American Iron Works company in the hours before the fire. The calls started shortly after 7 a.m. May 14 and ended just before noon. The fire was reported at 1:15 p.m.

The assistant, who did not return messages left on his cellphone Wednesday, tried to call Savvas Savopoulos about 1:40 p.m. but got no answer, the police documents show. Savvas Savopoulos had called the assistant at 11:54 a.m. — the last incoming or outgoing call he made or answered before the fire."

To me, there is a strong inference that Savvas was still desperately trying to raise MORE money for the killers after the assistant had dropped off the package of cash. I've always thought these people simply killed to eliminate witnesses. They killed brutally because they are brutes (and may not have wanted to risk carrying a gun or, if they had a gun, have shots heard -- silencers are spy story stuff). However, this makes me think that some of the brutality was anger and frustration by the killers when they realized they couldn't get more money in a short time period.[/quote]
