He said they all died from blunt force trauma (in their home) but he wouldn't say what the weapon was only that it was common, something everyone would be familiar with, not sure I understand the reason for secrecy in regards to that.
I didn't get to see that interview -- thanks Duchess.
If LE can't positively tie the common object murder weapon to their suspect yet, they probably wouldn't want to release any more information about it than necessary -- they apparently don't have a confession.
Merritt is a criminal con man; he is adept at making up self-serving stories. If he's guilty, maybe he'll slip up in the process of developing a tale to distance himself from the yet revealed murder weapon?
Wonder if the murder weapon ties specifically to the McStays or their home?
Anybody got ideas about what common object a killer would use to kill an entire family by blunt force trauma? Lots of possibilities; all of them terrible to imagine.
