Lets talk about Pastor Carol Daniels Once Again.

It has been a bit and the murder has still not been solved. I doubt the Oklahoma Bureau of Investigation is doing anything anymore. They thought they would kill the case by blaming a dead drug dealer, that did not work out. The grand jury saw beyond it. Good for them. It may be a cold case and a dead case; but, it has not been closed out quite yet.

Lets start with the things cops look for. Means, motive and opportunity. The means were pretty limited. Access to a knife and some cleaning agent, possibly bleach. That's all we know for sure. The means were available to anyone. The motive, well it doesn't seem to be money or sex. The motive does not seem to be revenge. In fact, the police have looked at everyone with a motive and when they cannot fine motive, they stop looking. That is their stupidity. If you cannot find means or motive leading to the killer, one should examine opportunity.

Everyone that had the opportunity to kill Pastor Daniels could easily find the means and the motive could have been as simple as killing someone and getting away with it. The real limiting factor is opportunity and few had that. This is what the police should be looking at.

1. How many people knew she would be at that church at that time.
2. How many people knew the church would be empty on a Sunday.
3. How many people knew they would not be noticed if they entered through the back door.
4. How many people knew they could get away and not be seen.
5. How many people knew she would not be heard screaming by the neighbors.

If the police cannot answer these questions, they have not done their job. If the police ever solve the crime, it will be because they asked these questions, got the answers and narrowed the field. Hopefully, they will do their job and start asking these questions rather than looking down roads that have already failed them. The murder happened a block away from the police station and from a gas station on the main road leading to a casino. Nobody entered through the front door except the pastor. How many people knew they would not be seen entering or leaving through the back. Simple questions for a town of 6,000 people. A small pool of eligible.
