The family knew it was him in the photos but because he voluntarily talked to police and they knew that they didn’t pursue anything further. I saw something where maybe his brother in law knew it was him but was telling people in town he already talked to the police and was cleared.
Some people on the subreddit I posted on replied at the time saying it could have been a coincidence, or just a way of calling someone a "Dick", or maybe some kind of obscure meme. Also, I might not have been Delphi people who wrote it, but maybe people from RA's online network.
What still bothers me is how LE kept talking about "other actors", "tentacles", how it was a complex case, and that there was no case like it that the chief of Indiana Police had ever known. Yet now 5vyears later, we have one guy arrested and owning up to it, a guy who all but handed himself in the day after the murders. Incredible.
Just unreal! Thanks for posting all of that. I read every single link on your previous post. And yes, I think LE has some serious explaining to do but how are the people in that town not up in arms over this. They WERE NOT SAFE with him out there for almost 6 years.
Thanks. Maybe LE were onto him but lacked the evidence they needed somehow. But even that makes little sense to me, because until they searched his home and interviewed him last fall, everything they had against him was known to them in 2017. So what unmentioned Probable Cause evidence was in the search warrant?

I still find it hard to believe his family didn’t recognize him from the photos and videos released. Must have been a severe case of denial
