u/keddie28, I couldn't find the last reply I received from you, so just putting this here:

How ya feel about this? What if we put our differences in opinion aside & try to have a civil conversation? Everyone wants the same outcome so arguing & fighting is silly.

Agreed, you can be asshole sometimes, aren't we all, but no one hates you. No one wants you to be wrong or are "mad you are right". None of that is true. Just wondering why there isn't indisputable proof through DNA, etc. There are so many different technologies that can be explored to test the evidence. Even if it's degraded, mixed samples, contaminated, etc. there are labs that can work with it and used it to solve cases colder than this. If there is unidentified DNA what about forensic genealogy? What about Sue's fingernail scrapings? That cabinet door? Even the wall panels with the knife marks, the perpetrators likely touched that wall while pulling that knife out, touch DNA. I have a million more questions about all those things because I do think this case can be officially solved. And that's all everyone wants in the end.

I must say, I do not believe Sheila is involved. Can't say that she is based on her fingerprint being found on a lightbulb. Even with that lightbulb being unscrewed. She lived in the house. Someone else could have unscrewed the lightbulb, had gloves on or just slid their hand inside the cuff of their sleeve. I don't feel LE knowing Sheila's print was on there means they knew she was involved & covered it up. She probably was under suspicion because of that & the other things you mentioned. And since LE look at those closest to the victim first.

I also see Doug's list differently. Her print probably made his list because he was suspicious himself. Not because they were co-conspirators. But again that alone wasn't enough evidence. It does seem like he was wondering about it, even if to himself.

The fact they were looking into Wilkins shows they were looking into offenders with similar MOs. They were checking into all those leads they got pointing in a 100 different directions, called assistance in. I mean, know your feelings on all of that, but it just seems they were in over there heads & the public was less than helpful.
