how are we really going to catch him?
What posters can do is to put pressure on current LE. Additional publicity indirectly helps because it forces a great big spotlight on the case, and on current LE, so that LE feels pressure to at least give the impression that they are interested in the case.
Drifter
Santa Barbara County brought a couple of investigators out of retirement to solve cold cases. They were asked which ones they wanted to solve and they said the EAR/GSK cases.
Sacramento LE blew it, as most of us are in agreement, by not devoting entire rooms to saving every shred of EAR reports, files, and evidence (including making lab space for the biological evidence). They knew that EAR was going to escalate to murder because of his threats toward victims, escalating violence, and what psychological profilers told them about EAR. They knew EAR was on the move in the State of California, attacking in other counties. And yet Sac LE didn't hang on to every piece of evidence and wait for science to catch up and help track this offender. I wish some obssessive compulsive person/hoarder-type had been in charge at Sac LE.
