But his many contacts with authorities raised ques- tions of why he was out of custody and able to go on the 45-minute rampage that began with the killing of two neighbors in an apparent act of revenge before he went looking for random victims. Cristal Caravez and her father live across a ravine from the roadway where the gunman and his fi rst vic- tims lived.
