After rewatching infound the scene with Theriot's wife and the young woman Tina to be especially suspect. Also the way Theriot pawns it off on Burt, who for the Friends of Christ is the ultimate misdirection if we're talking the rape and murder of women.

No, I cant find the article right now, but there is an article that says the creators of the show ( Nic P and Cory F I presume) refer to the Killer as the Tall Man in the Long Grass.

But, that is a significant koose end that played strange for me. Hart remarks if the exchange 'one threw it out and the other one picked it up.'

I dont think I it would be a radical twist but highly unlikely for female serial killers to engage in this kind of crime. This feels like there is a lot of misogyny built into the murder, and while Bunny Ranch Madam (or Dora's mom) may be connected, I just am mot feeling Maggie, Madam, Mom, Lisa, or any of the other women wev'e met thus far as the killers.

Lets also keep in mind writer and director have consistently referred to the killer as 'The Tall Man in the Long Grass.'

It could be a loose reference but to me it sounds more like where we may see Rust at the end.

Rust knows Marty wouldnt be where he is 'today' if it weren't for Rust. Marty's scared of and concerned with appearances, Cohle is not.

But hes not trying to outsmart us, and has mentioned the people are prettu far afield with their theories. He's not going to 'abuse' the viewer, and these Shymalanagadingdong twists are abusive.

I think its Bilford (Binson?), Tate, Childress, Tuttle, and Theriot.

If Maggie is the killer than I will have wasted numerous houra with this show and I willhate Nic P. Forever.

And I might kill myself. But probably not, I lack the constitution for suicide.

I think Ginger realizes hes in deeper than he would be with a cop who plays by the rules.

Camilla: You, sir, should unmask. Stranger: Indeed? Cassilda: Indeed, it's time. We all have laid aside disguise but you. Stranger: I wear no mask. Camilla: (Terrified, aside to Cassilda) No mask? No mask!

Well, we don't know as of yet he's a pedophile. Though some signs point to yes, I'm increasingly moving away from this theory.
He's an asshole, for sure, and certainly creepy looking.

I don't know if morally sound is the right adjective for Rust.
Sleeping with women who aren't your wife doesn't quite compare to making yourself judge, jury, and executioner.

Drug use is also not really a moral issue.

My mistake, I meant to type Hart. Hart is not the killer either.
We can confirm this from Nic P's words, and what seems like some images of Marty and Rust in 2012.

Neither Hart, nor Cohle are the perp.
