What if someone knew that Suzanne would have a car for the Best Buddy bit, and knew that she would need to return the keys (this might or might not be a student involved with Best Buddies). This stalker waits near Phelps Gate for her to return the keys, "accidentally" meets her and offers her a ride home... Hmmm... interesting thought. The only problem is that now you're talking premeditated murder. You'd have to believe he knew a) Yale and b) Suzanne's schedule, and c) had a knife on him. Those are big "ifs". Assuming he somehow did, then he'd have to assume Suzanne didn't already have plans and would indeed be likely to accept a ride. What if she had simply turned around and retraced her steps? OK, let's assume he met her under the Phelps Gate arch and she agreed to get into his car because she a) knew him, b) trusted him, and c) was tired and welcomed a ride home. So, she gets in the car and he obviously doesn't drive her home. Uh oh. At this point she's probably a bit worried. How is it possible she could have been taken by surprise in this scenario? How does one person sitting in the drivers seat stab someone 17 times without the victim trying to defend themselves? Lastly, we have the witness who saw Suzanne alone walking north on College. I suppose the "friend" may have approached her shortly after that, but it would also indicate Suzanne was not retracing her steps and thus it raises the likelihood she was not on her way back home and thus quite possibly may have refused any offers of rides home. Lots of "gotchas", don't you think? - Jeff
