The Previous Owner #58

He wrote how he'd sent away through the mail for a home movie camera and that he was going to use it to document the meting out of justice for his mother.

There wasn't another entry until the day after the murder.

He wrote:

"Picked up Abigail last night. I was going to kidnap her, take her out into the desert, and waste her, I had the camera in the backseat. But she was so strung out on LSD she didn't even recognize me. She was outside the bowling alley. I asked if she wanted to go for a ride."

    Please excuse my pedantry, Christopher, but do you mean ‘there wasn’t another entry until the day after the anniversary of the murder’ (not the day after the murder), or am I getting my timeline muddled?

    I meant there wasn't another entry until the day after he killed Abigail Lewis. It's like when he decided to kill her he went silent in his journal until after the job was done.
