You guys are going to think I'm even weirder now...

But there is a serial killer/rapist from his hometown he seems to admire. He claims the police picked him up and interrogated him as a potential suspect for this killer's crimes (but then let him go for lack of evidence) before the actual killer was caught and convicted and sentenced to life in prison.

He also lives in the town where this person is in prison and where he committed his crimes.

Maybe this serial killer is the one I've been talking to? That would be too crazy.....but now I'm wondering.
