Help me understand!

New to this case and feel like I must be missing a lot of info. How is it possible this Allen guy never committed any other crimes? No history of anything? Nothing violent, not even a bar fight or something? And just escalated to double murder? And then never did it again? This is truly mind blowing to me. I’m sure this guy did it but it’s just so shocking this guy went from zero to double homicide.

And what is the suspected motive? He just always wanted to do it and finally had the opportunity? He snapped?

I’m so very confused.

Donald Lee Clark was 47/48 when he allegedly murdered two men at a California job site. One victim was bound and shot. The other was run over by a car. No known link between Clark and the two victims. No previously known murders by Clark at this time.

Here is 13 (out of the 54 most famous US and UK serial killer cases) that were 40 or older for their first known kill:

As a bonus, there are 16 more, if you adjust the arbitrary age you picked to include people in their 30s -- more than half of the 54 are 30 or older.

Why don't you reply to it, or this comment now?

Thank you for linking that. I find it very interesting that almost half of the serial killers in that list started after 30.

I’m honestly so embarrassed for you it’s making me shudder. We all know you’ve seen the comment and have no retort.

It's pretty clear they are unwilling to be honest on this topic.

Link the comment then. I havent see it. If people have me blocked I dont see there comments. But the fact that no one can't post it to me isn't making me think exists.

It's been linked to you directly multiple times. If they blocked you or you blocked them, they could not see and reply to you.

Please stop being transparently dishonest.

You literally replied to a person that shared the link with you that you are pretending does not exist...
