Moab murder suspect Adam Pinkusiewicz had a 'significant other' who knew about the double shooting but did not come forward, police revealed Thursday.
on surveillance video at Woody’s Tavern in downtown Moab on Aug. 13.On the following morning they were killed at a remote campsite up a mountain outside town.
Police had a series of early ideas as to who may be responsible, but they ruled out most except for the"creepy camper" theory, regarding a man Schulte and Turner told friends made them uncomfortable in a series of encounters at their campsite, and the idea that the shootings grew out of an argument with a threatening co-worker.
By Aug. 27, 2021, Pinkusiewicz arrived in Waterloo. On Sept. 24, local police received a call from a motel reporting his death. Although records show Pinkusiewicz had purchased a Glock 9mm, the likely murder weapon, he killed himself with a .357 revolver -- using Hornady Special Critical Defense rounds. Because his death was ruled a suicide months before Grand County deputies had tracked Pinkusiewicz’s footsteps to Waterloo, police there released his property to his family, including cellphones that police later examined in connection with the Schulte-Turner case.
He also left behind a suicide note which mentioned being fired by"lefty liberal bosses" for not working"fast enough," according to Grand County investigators.
