Like all 1st year PhD students, this guy is an idiot that thinks he knows way more than he does. Thanks to ancestry websites, you can assume that anyone can be identified through DNA left at the scene. For the perfect crime, you either go full Dexter or do it outside of the US.

Your wife being a criminologist doesn't make you smarter by association.
It's winter holiday break. People fly home all over the world on winter holiday break.
A flight to Chicago then to Paris then to Algiers and he would have been free. No Extradition Agreement with Algeria. No courtesy Extradition from Algeria to U.S.
I am in no way suggesting that I am smarter by association.
I am saying, and I thought it was clear, is that a PhD in Criminology is not designed to teach people how to get away with murder, or any other crime.
After that you go on to do exactly what my next post addresses; tell everyone how "getting away with it" could be done better, or more easily, and how you would have it all figured out. Believe me, nobody reads your post and thinks, "Oh, this guy is SO smart! He could get away with murder!"
Just sayin'
You said "he should have ran..." You may have a brilliant wife but you are in way brilliant. You learn "he should have run" in second grade.

Still no murder weapon or motive though? This doesn't exactly scream open and shut case.
They just haven't revealed the motive yet.
Something I found interesting is that once had Katherine Ramsland as a professor in college. She's kind of a big deal in the true crime world, an expert on serial killers. I'd really like to see her get interviewed about this, but looks like she's not making any statements right now.

You're right. I am in a way brilliant, and I appreciate the compliment!

Here, once again, is someone ignoring the realities of wilderness disappearance. Even when someone isn't trying to disappear, search and rescue often never finds them. Or their remains. Vanished forever.
Now, I'm not saying it's easy to live in the wilderness forever, but a real mastermind planning in advance could do worse than become a survival expert.06 -

Are law enforcement not allowing detainee to take his psych meds? A rational PhD candidate knows this type of behavior does not help. Detainees can go days, weeks or months without their meds in county jail.

From what I've read, the probable cause will be revealed once he's back in Idaho tomorrow.
This story will probably spark a national conversation over the personal safety implications of social media. Rumors are swirling around that he was a sort of social media stalker of the victims. That would be very creepy if he didn't have any personal connection to them beyond social media following.
There is a LRC poster that has harassed me for years. Last month wrote a post with my house number, and wrote a threat about sending me a Christmas gift. I consider this person dangerous, and clinically sick.

While I agree that, if true, that poster is way out of line, you are extremely unlikable.

That is your opinion. I post my thoughts, not to be your or anyones buddy. That said, no excuse to register handles using my wife’s name, my employer, non-registered son name handle. Weird.

Here, once again, is someone suggesting that this guy had intentions that he didn't have.
Clearly he intended to get away with this crime (if he did it) and to go on living his best life. To go on teaching and progressing toward his PhD.
Clearly he did not intend to run off and live in the woods forever, dropping off the grid and being John Rambo.
Could you live in the woods for awhile, possibly die there and be eaten by animals? Yes.
But the question at hand was more about whether he could have fled the area and had any kind of meaningful life going forward. My response was in that regard. Fleeing in the aftermath of the crime would have been the worst thing to do if his goal was to actually have a life in society going forward, and if he felt that he would never be tied to the crime.
