I hope this doesn't sound strange but I'm glad to finally get closure on this.

I remember the news article from 3 years ago that came out about this and there was speculation that this was just a random attack on a regular hiker. People started becoming paranoid that hikers and innocent people were being targeted on the side of the road.

I realize logically every life counts but there's something about random attacks that scare me so much more than people that commit crimes and start getting targeted.
