Did thomas finley murdered his sister Samantha finley?

Answer 1

the footage from the tapes were never completely looked at. A scene where the TV came on by itself and a table moves shortly after is never questioned, nor is it even looked at or brought up. The camera's are going all the time but in the case where the Dr is killed, we only see him after the fact. All the other footage we see something occurring right as it happens. The sisters room has a cam in the closet, yet we never see what was on it before the apparent killing. We hear Samantha screaming, her brother screaming, calling out her name. She is never screaming his name, nor is she screaming "stop" or anything in defense, she is clearly terrified. We see her covered in blood, and then the next we see her completely cleaned up with what looks like a rather big scratch or stab wound in her chest.

So if Thomas Finley actually did murder his sister, he was clever enough to cover it up with splotchy footage.

He was careful to set the stage and document everything about their feelings and the things supposedly going on in the house, to make anyone watching believe that there was some sort of evil presence in the house. If he did kill her he could easily blame it on the entity and try using the footage as evidence that something else did the dirty work.

But again, the camera that was in Samantha's room where we find her screaming, is never shown to be on before the time of the attack, so we are left to guess. We hear him running into the room and certainly she is alive at that point and then dead the next. But again, the only camera running is the one Thomas is holding which he drops and then we hear her screaming suddenly stop.

If we want to answer whether or not he killed her we need to see the camera that was in her room, and the one in the living room where the doctor was found and see the entire thing because that footage is conveniently left out.

A killer who wants us to believe that something else did this will go out of his way to prove it. But this doesn't and is also amateur footage, and two key points are left out and up to us to guess. I would say he did it. wanted us to believe that something else did it, but the camera's weren't rolling when the doc dies, and the camera wasn't rolling in his sisters room at the time just before her attack. Convenient omissions.

ZeroBlood89 : I personally think the reason why so much was left out is because the scenes could have been WAY too gruesome for the public to see and the police or whoever found the tapes in the attic thought that these scenes on the cameras of the living room and Samantha's bedroom closet were in fact too gruesome for the public to view.
