In an interaction with Fox News Digital, Harford County Sheriff Jeff Gahler shared that the suspect could be a serial killer on the loose.

“The violence associated with Rachel’s case shows he has absolutely no care, no regard for human life. I believe he will continue to do it until he’s captured. He may be a serial killer.” said Gahler.

“Serial killers all start somewhere. What he did in Los Angeles was certainly, I believe, in that direction. I believe it was his intention to inflict more serious physical harm,” added Gahler.

Notably, Morin who was a mother of five, had gone for a walk along the trail at about 6 pm on August 5. When she didn’t return till 11:20 pm, her boyfriend informed the police.

Interestingly, DNA recovered from the crime scene matched with that of a suspect who had broken into a house in Los Angeles recently.
