One of the things I find surprising about the murder of the Sydney gay couple is just how careless the alleged killer was with the murder weapon and hiding evidence. Like wouldn't you think being part of Police he might be just a bit better at that kind of thing?

Using a police issued gun as the murder weapon? Really? Dumping bloodied clothes near a dumpster bin a few blocks from a cop shop? Not destroying the van he drove around with the night of the murder? I could go on.

Endeavour: Have you checked ballistics?

Forgetting to pick up the casings he left behind, which helped police narrow it down to a fellow police officer.

That, and his ex said he was being stalked by said police officer. Idk how he thought he'd get away with it.

I'm also going to assume he won't spill where he dumped their bodies, as an extra 'fuck you' to their families.

Also doesn't surprise me that it's a NSW police officer. They haven't exactly got a good name for themselves

It certainly raises questions about their recruitment practices hiring dumb psychotics.

Obviously didn’t pay attention in cop school.
