Reply to comment by [deleted] in Police have no suspect in killings of 4 UI students; investigators believe 2 other roommates were home at time of attack by profigliano

More like, the victims were killed for a reason (which may not be a good reason, but they were specific targets, not random ones) and/or the police think the victims knew their attacker. So there's no active threat unless you, y'know, accidentally piss off the guy who killed 4 people the other day.

This is what bothers me. Barring some insane twist of them being mules who owed the cartels (or lesser twist of it being one of the 2 roommates), targeted attack doesnt mean much. Targeted because they flashed money/jewelry? Targeted because they left their doors unlocked? Targeted because the killer had an obsession with one of them? Targeted because of a gang initiation? Targeted because they insulted some psycho?

Great, I guess everyone is safe, as you said, until they piss off a serial killer.
