Laziest. Serial killer. Ever.

It's always the last person you suspect.

That's some fine policework there, boys.

Damn you beat me to it (shakes fist)

Annnnnnnnnd, Thread over......

Buffalo's newish (at this point I think it's approaching 10 years old) cold case squad's been solving the old ones solidly, there is almost one a month. A lot of the time, though, it's been that they solved a case where the person who did it was in jail for something else the past 30 years, or dead, or both.

I still think there is a southern tier serial killer, though. Almost every town has a missing white lady, less than 40 when she vanished, usually blonde, then there are the bodies found along 86, who aren't the same missing people, but are still women under 40.

/When you're so sick you can't go outside you watch crime shows, when you've seen every L&O 4 times you watch true crime shows.

NutWrench: Aronica and Redmond busied themselves digging further into Fountain's past and discovered he had been convicted in 1977 of killing a woman in New York City.

Checking into someone's past sounds like it could be a valuable skill for a detective.

From what a forensics teacher in college (in Buffalo) taught me shortly after this case was in the news, it wasn't that easy to find out of area convictions. It wasn't all in easy to use databases at the time.

Shows what I know, subby, reading the article, maybe YOU should? He's been Marcy since 1994? That IS jail. That's the crazy jail. And, having known one of the shrinks who works there, most jails are a step up in pleasantness, the place is a dungeon.
Sounds like they were more afraid he'd get out and worked fast to keep him there. Either way, he's been incarcerated for 20 of the last 40 years, so, um, it seems Buffalo was were the raping and killing stopped, since the cops there got him into the place with the nice lawns.

It's never a good idea to leave your DNA laying around for 20 years.

Police are not saying much about Fountain's motive for allegedly killing Epps, but Aronica did say, "It may have been an argument between the two of them."

Like she didn't want to be raped and murdered by a lunatic stranger and he thought she did kind of disagreement?

"Her murder was horrific, and I knew if we got evidence, that this might be the last cold case I reopened before retiring next year,"

Yep, he's boned.

speaking of... wouldn't it be funny if he was pining after Lin while Lin was pining after Tenzin, all this time?

Funny, yes, but I don't think so. Well, it could happen. The plot has been advancing slowly but the sequences have been utterly beautiful.

My theory is that a Fire-bender didn't take his face, but the spirit that steals faces did (forgot his name - the really creepy one), and that's where Amon somehow was taught/learned spirit bending. I think he really has no face, and he "sees" through spirit bending like Toph "saw" using earth bending.

Now they just need to find the body of sara anne wood and prove Lewis Lent killed her and we'll be all set

Ewwwwwwww

Buffalo detectives? Amazing creatures!

Hey man just between you and me that thing with the dog comes off as just a tad bit fruity
