This one really stuck out to me :

"There are now three instances (two from ex-bf Randy) that they'd heard, all secondhand, that Tina was soliciting sex. <If so, why didn't the molestation case go down another way?>"

I feel terrible even saying this....but the first thing I thought of after reading that post was how Josh had said Mrs. Seabolt told them off camera that she had overheard a "sexual encounter " the afternoon of the murders. Correct me if I'm wrong and perhaps I am way off. But based on what we have been told about that days events, Tina was the only one who was home alone that afternoon. Was it her? And if so who could she possibly have been with? Perhaps she made plans to meet up with this person that night and is why she was still dressed. Perhaps that is why she told the Seabolts her mom wanted her to come home and not spend the night. I had always thought she might have chosen to go home herself because maybe she had a crush on Dana or Justin. But maybe it was because of someone else, someone she made plans to meet up with that night. Perhaps Jonny & Dana caught and tried to stop her from leaving or ran into this person and things got out of hand from there? All speculation of course.

It has definitely seemed as if there were things going on that people were trying to keep hidden, some "skeletons in the closet" or family secrets. That would explain Sheila's "memory issues". Also, it was always strange how there were so little reports available to us discussing Tina. It would be helpful to hear what some of her friends had to say, maybe they knew what was going on with her. I'm sure the police have such reports, maybe they also chose to keep things like that quiet (and Josh if he came across such reports). Sadly, that type of behavior sometimes happens in victims of abuse. Poor Tina.

I would also love to read the interviews from the Seabolts & find out more of what she had to say about that "encounter". Mrs. Seabolt certainly seemed to be quite a nosy neighbor. Just my impression of her. Would love to hear what she had to say as well as what her kids had to say. And since I think of her as the nosy neighbor I still find it odd she saw or heard absolutely nothing that night. And Mr. Seabolt was supposedly up throughout the night and up early to go wood cutting, stopping at the general store. Makes you go hmmm.

I also did not understand how the use of the word "suspects" proves anything. It was probably pretty obvious to them it was more than one person. Also, police typically keep information from the public so it isn't strange that they didn't tell the public they suspected it was a set up because of the light or that a daisy rifle was involved. In fact, I would think if they were trying cover something up they would have left things like that out of the reports.

Nice work. Very nice indeed.

Eylers stepfather Irving was an administrator at Indiana state hospital psych ward in Richmond Indiana. Richmond was the stomping ground of Jim Jomes around 15 years before Eylers first murder in 1979.

I'm not there yet, only on p150. I'll post the name when I run across it. I'm almost convinced Eyler, Gacy, and Dahmer floated around in the same circles. The murders and their circumstances are too similar. The author even speculates on how a 180 pound Eyler got men bigger than him handcuffed; it mentions the Dean Corl/John Gacy technique of using a magic trick as a pretext for them letting him handcuff them. Also it mentions Eyler gave his victims Pacidyl (a hypnotic) in their beer. The fact that satanism is mentioned makes me wonder if the Process was active in Indiana, we know they were in Chicago and Milwaukee, the two places Eyler and Dahmer both killed in. I'd love to read the case files on Eyler and Dahmer to compare places and names, I'd be willing to bet there's a lot more similarities than what's on the surface.

I believe Eyler had more than one accomplice. He probably had a small group of 4 or 5.
