Johnny S. Clarke & Lisa Straub- young Ohio couple murdered
(02-18-2011, 12:18 AM)Spalding Wrote: I think one of the reasons that this case has attracted so much interest is the manner of death. Guns are a convenient and effective means to murder and, as a result, have become very prevalent in drug and gang crimes. For plastic bags to be used, you would first have to subdue the individuals (at risk to yourself while doing so) and then take the extra time associated with suffocation to make sure the job was complete. If the killers wanted to minimize their time at the scene and minimize the chance that DNA would be left as a result of the struggle, guns would have been the way to go.

So if it were a robbery gone bad, why employ plastic bags? In my opinion, the manner of death suggests a motive of revenge, either for snitching or stealing from the wrong person. This crime was done to maximize pain and to send a message. I think it was premeditated.

I have believed this along along, but I'm baffled by the holes in the closet walls, ransacked bedrooms, etc. Wouldn't murderers just be there for that reason, and not multi-tasking by attempting a robbery too?
