Summary

Laura shares her analyses about the targeting of Maggie and Paul, the choice of location, the sequence of events and when triangulated, it reveals that this horrific double murder could only have been committed by someone close to them. Laura dives deeper into the crime scene behaviour including the modus operandi of how Maggie and Paul were killed, the different types of weapons and different types of ammunition being used and how this points to the killer(s) being from outside the home. Laura explains how the evidence fights itself and shares her experience about what this means, as well as spotlighting the puzzling law enforcement response. Listener discretion is advised.
