...taken for friendship, helpfulness or simply being in the wrong place at the wrong time. The only thing certain is that Cunanan wanted them to die. Cunanan had parked the red Jeep Cherokee of his murdered ex-lover David Madson near the Chicago home of real estate developer Lee Miglin and could well have seen Miglin working in an open garage, his green Lexus clearly visible. Cunanan killed Miglin, stole the Lexus and abandoned it when he heard radio reports that the Philadelphia police were tracking Miglin's cell phone. Frantically, he ripped the ceiling lining...
...Madson not killed till four days later, near a lake 30 miles north of Minneapolis, Minn.? Why did Cunanan decide to torture Miglin to death the next day and not just take his Lexus?

His killer had stabbed him with pruning shears, then sawed through his throat with a gardening saw. The killer had also nibbled on some ham and an apple, then made off with Miglin's green 1994 Lexus...
...Miglin's death shocked even the most unshockable Chicagoans. Three days after the killing, Chicago police noticed the red Cherokee less than a block from the crime scene, accruing parking tickets. They called in its license number and learned its gory history. The killer had apparently traded the Cherokee for Miglin's green Lexus, now missing. On Thursday Philadelphia police got a call from their Chicago colleagues warning that the Lexus' phone had been activated in their area.
