Bundy wasn't especially bright (125 IQ) yet he managed to cover his tracks (and escape twice) for quite a while. His unraveling when under pressure is what did him in. Douglas' suggestions might have had the same effect here. Instead we had the BPD bumbling along which may well have confirmed to this guy the righteousness of his cause. <P>Not sure about the educated vs trained.<P>I think if he had the breadth of energy to focus on acquiring wealth he wouldn't have been so focused on John as deserving punishment. Being "resourceful" means he probably doesn't go hungry but beyond that I think it's hard to say.<P>Dave - Christmas will do. SBTC is one of the most annoying clues in this case since it could mean everything or nothing and we'll never know unless there is a confession.<P><P>
