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.

Honestly he has had run-ins with the police and was checked into a mental hospital after the murders for putting a gun to his head and threatening suicide in front of his daughter and wife. Maybe he has not had any arrests but that doesn't mean that he hasn't done any crimes. He probably just did not get caught. I also believe that what happened to those girls was a fantasy of his for a very long time that finally came to fruition when he found an opportunity. Just my opinion
