Everyone on DU is expert at something. [View all] yardwork Sep 2025 OP

i think he's an immature poser trying to imitate a "romantic" style of writing to impress his friend jmbar2 Sep 2025 #1

yes it would be very important to get legitimate examples of past writing style. Irish_Dem Sep 2025 #10

I keep thinking, Tyler wasn't stupid. He was a straight a student and earned a scholarship. Walleye Sep 2025 #13

What would the motive be for changing his writing style after the murder? Irish_Dem Sep 2025 #15

I don't know, but if it is AI, it's a pretty clumsy attempt Walleye Sep 2025 #26

It is not unusual for a murderer to try use writing style to cover up a crime. Irish_Dem Sep 2025 #29

My guess would be #2. pandr32 Sep 2025 #2

Seems to me it's difficult to determine emotions behind texts read by some old monotone investigator. Silent Type Sep 2025 #3

Even under stress people will still exhibit behavior consistent with their typical behavior. Irish_Dem Sep 2025 #11

Probably true, but don't think those things come across in texts. Silent Type Sep 2025 #12

There are LE investigators who spend their entire lives evaluating written material. Irish_Dem Sep 2025 #16

Do you have a citation from a few on this issue? Silent Type Sep 2025 #17

I am refuting your general comment about evaluation of written material from crime scenes. Irish_Dem Sep 2025 #18

When you get a citation from some, I'd like to read them. Silent Type Sep 2025 #20

I doubt experts are going to make public an analysis of Kirk's text messages. Irish_Dem Sep 18 #92

excuse me, but you're thinking NJCher Sep 2025 #23

I'm not talking about doctoring or altering the messages. yardwork Sep 2025 #44

He was sitting in his car nervously waiting for the 'lingering' 'squad car' to leave to see if he could 'retrieve' his still-prayin4rain Sep 2025 #5

Exactly. Why would he recount details of the murder while also trying to hide the evidence? It makes no sense. sop Sep 2025 #9

He wasnt in his car -- he was in his 'vehicle'! (typical gen z speak) 70sEraVet Sep 2025 #30

Right? Along with, dude, stop texting every SINGLE detail to me. Sheesh. still-prayin4rain Sep 2025 #34

I call my cats "my love" LearnedHand Sep 2025 #64

I guess slipping, "we're for sure involved romantically," into the text thread proved difficult. still-prayin4rain Sep 2025 #69

I would like to know more about the roommate. Kali Sep 2025 #25

Yes, we would need more context and examples. yardwork Sep 2025 #49

I'm no expert in FBI practices, but they are prob reconstructed in the absence of actual texts Bernardo de La Paz Sep 2025 #27

What are the odds of Kirk's assasin being involved with a transgender person? hadEnuf Sep 2025 #65

Interesting that even people on the far right are questioning the veracity of the texts. Wiz Imp Sep 2025 #75

"popular account Catturd" .... haha still-prayin4rain Sep 2025 #78
