This was emailed to me by a reader of the blog – I found it very insightful, and very disturbing, but I feel that others should read it besides me. This reader is quite an amazing investigator in their own right. Until all the facts come out – after a proper law enforcement investigation is launched into Morgan’s stalking and murder, the resolution can not be found, and I really do appreciate others taking there time to really look at the circumstances surrounding Morgan’s stalking and murder since Steve and I have all this evidence, but we are not real investigators, and if someone else steps back and does the research they may obviously see things we have missed along the way.

Serial killers tend to be mostly white males; between 20 and 40 years of age . Most, although not all, serial killers begin their lives as petty criminals; initially they may have been peeping-Toms, animal torturers, arsonists, or many other wide ranges of pre-killing crimes, or crimes without death, but crimes nonetheless. To be followed by killing, a killing spree that starts and goes on until someone can force i to stop. The goal in effective law enforcement is to stop this cycle early, before it progresses to the uncontrollable and lethal stages.
Charles Williams, one suspect who died of AIDS in a Florida penitentiary, many of what we came to believe were his victim’s deaths were not initially classified as murders. The original detectives and medical examiners investigating these cases in a predominantly low-income area of Miami found large quantities of drugs in the bodies of women, most of whom were, based on previous arrest histories and family interviews, known prostitutes and/or drug addicts, and consequently most of these deaths were initially classified as drug overdoses.

Young people who develop a serious tendency towards voyeurism may well be displaying their inclinations toward psychopathic tendencies. Serial killers often seek to have complete control over another human being, and watching their victims in private settings without the victims knowledge allows people inclined this way to feel a sense of dominance. This is a trait many serial killers share from an early age.

As Jack Apsche (1993) makes clear, serial murderers see themselves as dominant, controlling and powerful figures. They hold the power of life and death, and in their own eyes, they perceive themselves as God. In their fantasies and their enactment of the murder, they become God. This is actually probably the only power they have ever had, and for this reason they savor and continue to persist. As B.F Skinner proved in ‘Science and Human Behavior’, once a killer has tasted the success of a kill, and is not apprehended, it will ultimately mean he will strike again. He put it so simply, that once something good has happened, something that made the killer feel good, and powerful, then they will not hesitate to try it again. The first attempt may leave them with a feeling of fear, revulsion and remorse, as stated by Ted Bundy, to psychologists on the eve of his execution in 1989; but at the same time, it is like an addictive drug. Some killers revisit the crime scene or take trophies, such as jewelry or body parts, or clothing, or video tape the scenario so as to be able to re-live the actual feeling of power at a latter date. Many have been reported as saying that they had fallen into the power of the devil after several kills, which is contradictory to their initial beliefs that they were God. It is almost as though initially they believed that they would be powerful in that they had the choice in taking or sparing life, but as time progresses, and the kills mount up, they find they are driven to kill as though they have no choice. Apsche (1993) has noted that many killers have attempted to get help when they discovered they had little control. They appear to want to stop their actions, but regain control to avoid their discovery. This is possibly an example of a bipolar personality clash.
Serial Killers that I’m aware of who started stalking women in their neighborhoods when they were just getting their “career’s” started is quite an impressive list of sick twisted minds, including; Ted Bundy, Gerard Schaefer, Danny Rollins, Joel Rifkin and Derrick Lee Todd. I believe that Morgan was killed by a serial killer in the making his first or second kill. He started out as a peeping tom, but he started to act out for some reason, he was scared, and I think this is why he used the DRUGS to kill her, because he lived close by and didn’t want to get caught. If I’m right then K will become that serial killer, he won’t use drugs the next time. When I first saw K’s Mother’s picture I was struck by some similarities i.e. Hair, Body Frame. Not that Morgan looks anything like his mother, but in a killers eye (K’s) you can see how Morgan would not be a perfect match to his Ideal Victim, but Morgan’s look was enough for K to escalate his fantasy.
While we do not know K’s family upbringing, his mother does come across as overbearing. With K into hunting at a young age, and probably never explained the respect of hunting and why, his brain went into that fantasy world about his killing, he got a thrill out of the kill. I picture K when he became a teenager, he started his petty crimes of burglarizing homes, maybe stealing cars, personal items, this lead him to also be a peeping tom. Case the joint and invade the privacy of the victim, goes hand in hand really. Probably while he was casing a house, (seeing what is inside to steal through the windows) he probably saw women in their private moments, and God knows what else. He got off on it, that and his hunting and on top his over bearing Mother….yep. Living with B he had access to the drugs! Now with respect to B’s father, and I still believe that is him on the wildlife cam….if I am wrong about K as a killer, but rather he was just a petty burglar, maybe B’s dad overheard or found out about his crimes, suppose he took advantage of him living there, or even invited him in because he himself took a liking to Morgan. Could he be the serial killer like BTK, who went for years un-noticed? Is he only the opportunist killer?
Anyway, your last blog post provoked me to send you this email. With all the other peeping tom / home burglaries in the area, it sure does sound like K, however I’m still stuck on that wild life cam, for me that is J. H.! B. H. is also reputed to be bipolar right? What if B knew that K was casing your house to steal, but she knew he wasn’t stalking Morgan but, she figured out it was her DAD….oh man that wouldn’t that open up a big can of worms!

I to can hear that clock ticking and I am very happy about it. 🙂
Toni, the writer of this has some excellent points and really did their homework on this, however I do not think B’s dad is the one, just because K would have blurted something out to cover his own butt by now, B and K are no longer together, and if I was under the microscope and had knowledge it was someone else I would certainly talk. I think B’s father knows the truth as does E. I can not believe that guy just basically packed up and fell off the face of the earth so to speak right after Morgans death, very scary he is defiantly hiding something, even if it is information, maybe he took off because he was worried about his families safety, who knows, it just leaves me with a creepy vibe. It is almost as if the entire neighborhood had little pieces of this puzzle but none of the pieces fit. I have a question about the drugs used, I know the barn for the equestrian facility is not that far away, the drugs that you mentioned are not sold at the local market, most if not all are only available through a vet or doctor, so I am wondering if anyone reported missing drugs, maybe to the barn manager, or maybe even the pharmacy at City Market had made a report to local PD, that would be public record. I know I am grasping at straws but if one thing that any of your readers come up with would or could put new light on something other wise over looked maybe just maybe you can solve this.
It is too weird like you say and when things don’t quite add up there is usually a reason – what that reason is I don’t know but I intend to find out. The horse ranch was directly behind our house and I have had some people give us information about the drugs there – I don’t really know how to find out about anything missing from City Market. Our family used to always shop there, and get any medications from there until this happened and I think it will take a court order, or a law enforcement agency to get any records out of them about any missing medications. I don’t think it’s grasping at straws I think it is a logical path to check out when doing an investigation. And I do know there are people that want to come forward with information but up till now have been afraid to – could it be because the Sheriff’s Department made it pretty clear that they did not want to investigate further? Who would they go to to tell anything? I keep asking myself that same question over and over again but then a little voice pops into my head that tells me, “don’t give up someone really good is going to open this investigation up and then those people that have info will trust them and come forward.” I have learned over the years that I have to listen to that little “voice”, “intuition” or whatever you want to call it so that is what I am doing now. Thanks for all your great ideas. Take care!
I don’t comment often but wow. The wildlife photos next to B’s dad are a little mind-blowing. I would love to see a similar collage of K’s photos like that for comparison. Like you said, though, there is a reason things don’t add up but someone needs to investigate why! Of course, that isn’t supposed to be your job, is it? I’m pretty sure that is what we supposed to depend on law enforcement for. How many victim’s blood do they need on their hands before they finally act? After all, it’s pretty clear Morgan wasn’t or won’t be the only one. My frustration with this is beyond measure so I can’t even imagine what you are going through. I am so so sorry.
P.S. That “whatever you call it” used to be your higher self but now it is also Morgan and louder than ever before. You already know that and I just want to let you know it’s ok to admit and believe that as truth.
wow…she does have some good points and the picture of the wildlife cam are dead on. The shape of his head and the height. Hmmmmm But I also believe that K is in the other camera pics for sure.
suppose JH or BH sent K over there (cam that shows K in driveway) on a ruse. The other ones of cam person crossing street, between houses, could just be K stealing stuff. JH found his patsy?
