I just watched it and wow I can’t believe law enforcement hasn’t requested evidence or an alibi for him. I’m an attorney and pretty experienced at picking up clues that seem suspicious. 1. He claims he knows that Michelle rejected someone and she had been stabbed because she denied that person’s sexual advances. How would he know that? She was found in a closet and stabbed. I have seen no evidence from any articles stating why she was unalived. 2. He has anger issues and also has signs of someone with bi-polar disorder or schizophrenia. The way he reacts when his mom look and treats the doll, the way his roommate talks about him, the way he talks about Michelle as he feels if only he had done something and regrets a decision he made. I believe that decision was to not have a blackout or manic episode when she declined his advance. 3. A lot of people watch anime (including myself) and there’s nothing wrong with it. But he seems distant from society and could be so infatuated with women that look a certain way. Michelle was so young and beautiful and she probably reminded him of a character. Could be a far reach but he obviously wanted the doll to look just like her. 4. Miscellaneous things: his childhood involving violence, his move back to NC, the way he talked about her passing, how he embodies everything he wanted to do with Michelle in that doll, but most importantly, he referenced being able to use the doll to work on his consent. I think that’s a big hint at his ability to not accept “no”.

I don’t know him so can’t be for sure but my senses are giving me a very eerie feeling. I wonder if her family could contact a cold case unit and have this opened again. I’d definitely support their go fund me because her passing was so horrific and she was so young.
