ST Murder Investigation Thread

Somebody tried to get into the safe? I didn't know that. Are you certain, or is it speculation?

I'm pretty sure I saw it in one of the hundreds of articles I've read (like we all have) since Monday. I tried to find a reference, but entering "safe" does not return many good hits as Taylor was a safety.

Don't forget the other scenario that's been circulating.. that the shooter had intention for Sean, but not intentions to kill.. just to injure him beyond repair for ever playing football again.

Yes, nothing should be ruled out.

*edit - Quite possibly the worst grammar I've ever used in a post. :)

it was in a couple articles.
Here's one quote for you:
"According to our Herald reporters and police records, someone also broke into Taylor's house between 7 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 17 and midnight Sunday Nov. 18, by prying open a front window. No one was home at the time. The burglar entered several rooms in the house, rifled through drawers, and a safe in Taylor's bedroom. The police report says it was ''unknown'' whether anything was taken. In that incident, someone left a kitchen knife on a bed in Taylor's house, according to the police report."

Yes, nothing should not be ruled out.

And no matter what the true cause, the number one thing to pray for is that the man behind the gun is caught.

There is way too much speculation going on at this point. Good thing O.J. was in jail for this cause im sure his name would have been thrown into the mix (jk). The fact is someone broke into the house two sundays in a row, they probably didint find what they were looking for the first time (either sean or property), so they went back. The fact that he was at the house was pretty random (he was supposed to be in DC). Im sure that whomever did this will be dealt with one way or the other, and we probably wont know what happened.

That says that they went through his safe which would tell me that it was open and empty or had nothing of any value.

I don't think this was a random burglary because if you broke into houses with the intent of just stealing goods it just doesn't make sense that you target the same house twice in the matter of 8 days. Also a common thief is not going to be that sloppy and leave a knife on the pillow of a bed - that right there spells intent to harm.

i,m no dick tracy but there,s more to it than just breaking in ...
so far the knife on the bed would let me on to beleive they would be back from 8 days previously. somebody knows something and they aint talking...for me i hope it comes to the surface with those who are involved and i,m sure it was more than one involved and i wouldn,t put it past the GF either.

I hate to say this, and here is my theory.

No disrespect at all but... here goes.

Jackie has been having an affair with the suspect, and Sean came home early... or something (shot next to private area)

It seems funny how she said he was shot in the bedroom, and then CP said it was outside the bedroom, and if your boyfriend is STILL IN THE BEDROOM AND GOT SHOT, wouldn't you look to see who it was? I mean, covers or not, I would have looked. Too fishy to me.

Even funnier, if we could see what clothing he was in when he was shot, we might be able to know. He came home early, and dude had a gun, or maybe it was Jackie's ex boyfriend, IE the shot next to his nuts....


Last scenario, when the door was busted down, ST might have hit his arm..... like if you barrell into a room and try to shoot someone, you are probably pointing at his chest or head, but then ST hit his arm real fast while firing. Those are just some of my opinions. It was DEFENITELY someone he knew. No question.

You're assuming the suspect was a great shot. Just because Taylor was shot near the groin doesn't mean that was the intent.
