Johnny S. Clarke & Lisa Straub- young Ohio couple murdered
My impression thus far is that a faked robbery was set up with Johnny and his friends in on it and the "who are you; what are you doing here?" exchange on the phone with a friend was arranged and part of the setup to rob the home of Lisa's parents while they were on their cruise; the "robbers" entered with no guns and their was a scuffle with a knife and the couple were overpowered secured with the duct tape; the bag was placed over Johnny's head to compel Lisa to disclose where all her parents valuables were, including the big safe, and how to access them. Lisa either didn't know or resisted until it was too late and Johnny accidentally expired; which caused the robbers to panic and put a bag over her head to intentionally kill her as she could otherwise identify them; and they had no guns. The expectation was that Lisa would tell all about her parents valuables quickly upon seeing the bag secured over her boyfriends head and his struggles to breathe.

To Johnny and his friends, Lisa's parents appeared wealthy. Lisa may have had no knowledge of the setup and fought hard to resist - harder than was anticipated. The idea was that, because she believed it to be so, she would corroborate to her parents and the police that it was a genuine uninvited entry and attack by persons unknown to either of them because the robbers wore something over their faces, e.g. nylon stockings or legs cut from pantyhose.

The person who was on the phone with Johnny never called the police because she played a role in what was thought to be an easy and clever robbery; and only later panicked when she learned how bad it had gone wrong.

I agree that the comment by Johnny's mother in call to police that the couple may have been abducted as part of a robbery is very very suspicious. Considering her record and behavior, she too may have had knowledge of it, or was told by the "friend" who called her.
