We're making the best inferences from available evidence.

Given what we know about Errol (namely that he seems to have things well under control in his neck of the woods), given what we know about Ledoux, given the fact that Marie Fontenot was not strung up for display, given that the murders continue after Tuttle's death (perhaps precisely because Tuttle died and so he isn't there to tell Errol to chill with the displays), and given Tuttle's reaction to Rust's probe, it adds up to the most likely answer.

Kind of similar to the old "no atheists in foxholes" saying. It almost seemed like he just could not sustain his complex intellectual/philosophical worldview in the face of the trauma he endured


I totally disagree with this. Rust remains a non-believer in the end. He longs to go into "the deeper darkness"--not into light. Light only exists for the living.

he was obviously involved in some way, but that doesn't mean he was using the task force to do his bidding

he hid polaroids of child porn that one of his priests was busted with also. he could theoretically be in a management role (everyone has their role...remember that). look at the actual places of killing and child rape. they were both located close together (around sulphur) while tuttle was across the state. they were both dirty arse scummy dens

these sorts of possibilities makes the cult interesting. that's why we all had fun discussing them. the actual show leaves these as nothing more than masturbatory exchanges. people are making assumptions and then concluding them as fact

Non-believer in the religious sense--i.e., immortality of the soul.

Holy frick. You're still complaining about this show? It ended 24 hours ago and you're still talking about why you don't like it. Kind of reminds me of people that hate the Dallas Cowboys or New York Yankees but can't stop talking about them.

she was only one of dozens, though. only 2 were displayed

possibly, but it's clear that plenty of girls had gone missing along the coast prior to his death

how many were part of the cult? we don't know

we know they did rape kids and not kill them (the tranny). we do know based on lange and the bones excavated, that they killed people (and with the old man, possibly not all kids)

hell, dora lange obviously occurred prior to his death...and only one more was, and it took a few years after his death

there doesn't appear to be a legitimate pattern with the limited information that we have

"the case starts and ends with the green eared spaghetti monster" Rust says this.

guess what, green eared spaghetti monster gets his head blown off once the detectives track him down.

case done. lot's of evil in this world and unfortunately despite the evidence and conjecture some people are still gonna get away with it. NP whole statement is about the evil of men and our "heroes" knocked it down a peg but evil men will still be evil.

he longs to go into an afterlife, which he had soundly rejected previously

prior to that incident, he doesn't believe in an afterlife or religion. after that incident he admits he wants to live in an afterlife with his daughter, and i need to re-watch but seemed clearly upset that he didn't stay there

Hmm. Interesting point. I dunno. Seems like he wanted to believe at least that he and his daughter and his dad would be together.

It almost seems like he could have been using the "darkness" as kind of the flip side of the "going back into the one flame" thing.

Then again, I don't have a background in theology so I may be in waaaayyy over my head here.
