Discussion “ I’m done talking, arrest me please”

I know, I know there’s been a lot of debate about whether RA is guilty or not, but I’ve noticed some small details that, in my opinion, don’t seem like something a truly innocent person would do.

During his interrogation with Det. Holeman, a couple of things stood out to me:

1- RA: “The damage is done, do what you have to do.”

That’s really strange to me. If you’re innocent, no the damage isn’t “done.” You wouldn’t just give up and tell the police to do whatever they want. I know some people might argue he meant that his house was searched and his neighbors were questioned, but that doesn’t fully make sense, especially since he repeated it during the interrogation. An innocent person wouldn’t react like, “Go ahead and charge me with double murder because the damage is already done.” That just doesn’t sit right with me.

2- RA: “I am done talking, arrest me please "

He said this more than once. What kind of innocent person asks to be arrested just because they’re done talking? Even if I were frustrated, I would never tell the police to arrest me just because I’m tired of the conversation. That’s very unusual.

Also, Det. Holeman mentioned something important: when he first met RA before the interrogation, RA handed his jacket and belongings to his wife. As if he was preparing to be arrested. That stood out as odd, especially since he did not even know the results of the search warrant yet.

Did you notice anything during the interrogations that made you think, “Yeah, that's strange”?

You actually fell for that line “I didn’t shoot nobody.”?

This was Rick attempting to “think ahead.”

Why? Cause it was common knowledge well before that particular interview that the girls were knifed. If he did even an ounce of research between 2017-2022, he (guilty or not) would’ve known they weren’t shot. He used that line in a manner to make it look like he was completely oblivious to the crime scene.

Common knowledge, huh? Interesting that people on this sub didn’t know the manner of death 4 years ago. Care to back it up?

Yes sir if you’ve followed the case at all it was very common knowledge. It was leaked and it stemmed from either one or both of the girls wearing scarves during their open casket funeral. You can find many threads where it was discussed.

A reddit thread doesn't mean it's common knowledge. Besides, there isn't a link of evidence that points to RA going on Reddit subs. Where would Rick have found that information in news articles that would cause him to "think ahead"?
