My PowerPoint in on the craigslist killer case

Opinion

My overall opinion on this case can be simple but cant be. I think that Philip was scary , weird, and intimidating. I don't know why he would go out and do what he has done. How could those people go and meet him If he wanted to meet at a hotel? To me that's suspicious. I am just glad he got caught and is locked up, because I could image what would have happened if he didn't get caught and locked up.
