Sounds promising. Was afraid this would turn into an unsolved case. I understand not releasing a lot of details in order to secure a guilty verdict. But hopefully they will answer some questions so residents know if they can rest easy if no one else was involved.

I agree the taunting seems more personal than a burglary. It's so twisted and disturbing. My heart pours out to the family and I hope they get all the way to the bottom of the case so everyone can have a little closure.

Sit back and relax people. Let the police do their job; your desire to know the morbid details will not help the investigation proceed. And you are probably in the safest place right now--no fool is going to strike twice. This crime was obviously so heinous and such an anomaly. The universe truly acts in random ways and that randomness does not discriminate. Worrying each minute about whether you will be the next victim of the universe's randomness is unproductive. And soccer-moms needing to know the "details" need to sit back and wait. Satisfying your morbid curiosity is not priority right now. You knowing details will not propel the case nor will it make you any safer. The police are NOT being vindictive. Imagine if they had satisfied your curiosity last week (you were all demanding that more details be known). If the phone story got out, maybe this animal would have fled. Instead, he hung loose and was caught. You aren't entitled to know any details. Really, you are not.

Marie quoted in the article above--this thing is no gentleman, to be sure. And if he didn't act alone, it is quite improbable that they would head back to the same area. You need to stop thinking about yourself and the remote impact this has had on you. It's effects are nil on your family as compared to others.

"now that the text message thing has come out, we need to know more" (quoted). Why is it your business? If it was random--the guys behind bars. You are safe. If it wasn't random? Well, then, you are safe in that case, too. Either way suburbanites--get over yourselves. We deal with this every day in the city (and still choose to live here).

Cb, u r right in a lot of your comments.... the pain that this family is going thru can not even be compared to how scare or uneasy people that live in the area feel. Also, I agree that sometimes people demand details when knowing them will not change or help in anyway ..... We still lock or door at night or day no matter what happened.... with this being said .... there is no need to be so rude or call anyone names.... you can still get your point across without having to go there.

I will post where I see fit. I'm actually advocating for the family and telling the nosy folks who keep wanting the lurid details to sit back and relax. It's not their business. The family was actually my first concern in that post.The fact that the day after the murder, every "mom" interviewed spoke about how angry they were that details weren't emergent. That's not concern for the family, no is it? Again, if they had their wishes granted, perhaps the animal would have been still on the loose.

I am a white suburbanite who lives in the general area and have kids that go to LT. I agree with cb about the people who unnecessarily want to know every detail. I for one am perfectly happy to let the law enforcement people do their jobs, and am sickened by the details that have come out today. God bless the family and their wonderful angel; may she rest in peace.

Thank you, Dan. I grew up in Orland Park; I'm really familiar with life in the burbs and I do recognize it's advantages. At the same time, I'm tired of hearing why mother and mother after mother "needs to know." Especially now, it's not going to make anyone safer.

Cb, I have a huge problem w u referring to "mother to mother" or "soccer moms" as the ones wanting to know! I heard lots of men saying they want to know as well or saying they r worry for the well being of their families. I agreed with you in that We do not need to know every detail but I am really sorry for the way u choose to express yourself. There are better ways of saying things !

This guy has killed. There's no chance for rehabilitation, (and why would we want to anyway). There's no question that he's guilty and should be put to death NOW. End of story.

And by the way, I don't appreciate his family already trying to lay down the insanity defense. So wrong of a thing to do at this time.

I actually don't think the family really cares to defend him. The grandmother said "Throw the book at him." His brothers remarks were meant in a condescending, chiding way "He's crazy, dude!" I didn't hear one of them say that he was unfit to stand trial or that he couldn't help what he did. They actually seemed to take blame very well. And sadly, I don't think Wilson himself will bother with an insanity defense. He's denied medicine in the past and seems quite apathetic to the whole thing. Unless he has some skeevy lawyer who convinces him to go this route, we can look forward to seeing garbage as such off the streets.

Oh wow! I didn't mean "sadly" in that way. What I was meaning to say is that 'sadly, wilson feel no remorse, is quite apathetic and doesn't even care to try to find a way to reconcile with this.'

Yes, I agree. We should stop putting people who smoke pot or commit petty theft away or forget to pay for their Wendy's meal. They are clogging the system while people like wilson are on the prowl for their next prey. This animal was headed for her his life life with the life of crime, jail, etc. he's embarked on.
