Has any one tried to do real research on if this truly can be considered the same guy as the downtown attack? Usually when a criminal attacks somebody and it works they don't change their method. His method of attacking in a dark secluded place with a knife worked for him. Why change it to a possibly busy gas station, or busy street using a gun as his weapon. I do not think that this is the same guy. It's easy after you've heard of a rape and then you are in the same predicament to think "this is the same guy". There are more than one out there in our area. My thoughts are the guy that committed the downtown attack is sitting in the dark in his home scared to death. He stabbed the girl 8 times. That tells me that he didn't want her to survive to be able to describe him. Well she did survive so now he's in trouble. He's not out committing more rapes. He's hiding. We've got more than one man out there doing these horrible acts. What are we, as a town, going to do about these things? Wilmington is a great place to live, beautiful beaches, nice restaurants, great shopping. The full time residents shouldn't live in fear. We should be able to fully enjoy our city. I have two small children. I am scared to death of them starting school soon. These men could be waiting at the bus stop for these unsuspecting kids. What is Wilmington trying to do to solve this issue?? I haven't heard anything from the police department or the sheriffs department with a plan of action to take to finding these guys and putting them away. I'm sure they have one and are executing it, but have they told the public of it? I think it would make us feel better to hear what their plan is, so that we know there is a plan and they are working on it.
