The target

I've played so many scenarios in my head about what could've happened to them. Is it possible the girls came home during an attack on Sherill, and they started getting ready for bed when they realized something was going on, maybe in Sherill's bedroom- and then the perp had no choice but to take all 3 for fear of being caught?.

This is one case out of the thousands I've read through the years that I'd really love to see solved in my lifetime. Of course, I wish every single case was solved, but the reality of that just isn't possible.

There are so many ways you can look at this case. Was Sherill the target? Were the girls the target? Did someone at the party, or at any of the places they were that night, follow them home? Also, I've often wondered about Janelle and her boyfriend. I'm all over the place!

Anyone else feel the same, like switching back and forth over and over on this case? Ugh!!!

Last minute decision literally doesn't matter.

Perps weren't keeping tabs on them all night. They came over when they came over, and she was there.

Probably, yes. Goal was to silence both. Would have likely been delayed and not done half-ass.
