Well, the bittersweet capture of the second suspect is done, and now we can all turn our attention to what happens next. Victims will still need help. Definite motives are yet to be discovered. Justice must take its course.

Since the other thread ballooned to over 700 pages during the sometimes tense, often ridiculous manhunt, this here new thread will serve as a continuation, just without play-by-play, and with more actual discussion.

Please, for everyone's sake, don't be a dick in this thread. Disagree like civil human beings if you disagree. High five like coked-up police stripperbots if you agree. Be excellent to each other.

Note: please, we don't need to hear about every dumb thing your backward-rear end hill-person friend has to say about this on Facebook or elsewhere. We all know it's stupid, and it just kind of clogs up the discussion!

Link to the prior thread, now in archives, is here.
