The investigators still search for a possible motive, and you apparently already know: because they were homosexual. Why do you you think so?
Because I've seen it before in the news. In 70's worked down road from a gay bar and always surprised at the level of violence that ensued there, among themselves. Here's some older stories.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5417249/Jealous-lover-ferociously-stabbed-partner-jail.html
Jealous lover, 29, who 'ferociously' stabbed her lesbian partner with a kitchen knife leaving her 'soaked in blood' after suspecting her of cheating. She had previously served a lengthy jail term for a separate wounding with intent crime.

A "FRENZIED" lesbian shot her lover six times in the head but failed to kill her, so she stabbed her repeatedly before slitting her throat with a knife, a court has heard.
The Adelaide Magistrates Court was today told Bernadette Liston was murdered by Francis Lorraine Marshall because she was about to leave her long-time lover for Marshall's brother.
Prosecutors today said that man, Darryl Purcell, fathered the lesbian couple's child by having sex with Ms Liston, sparking a four-year "illicit affair".
An all time classic!

(This one used to be a writer for Huff Post.)
A crazed lesbian murdered her ex-lover by stabbing her 222 times with a screwdriver before shooting herself dead.
Jealous Carol Anne Burger, a writer from Florida, US, murdered Jessica Kalish and stuffed her body in the backseat of her BMW.
And as the net closed in the next day, she walked out into her back yard, put a gun to her throat and pulled the trigger. The weapon - a Phillips screwdriver - had been plunged into the back of her head, neck and across her back, arms and face 222 times causing inch deep puncture wounds.
A deep stab wound to her neck is thought to have been the fatal blow.
In a desperate effort to cover up the horrific slaying, Burger dragged the body into her BMW and dumped it two miles away.
(Love Hurts?)
ALL because they were "lesbian"?
OR
another possibility is....Genetics?
he gets from the Bible. A spiritual retinitis pigmentosa. One is homosexuality. He can show you 1Cor 6:9,10, where ten sins are mentioned that will condemn their practitioners to Gehenna. Two of them are homosexuality.
He sees only those; among the other eight are drunkenness and thievery. No clue as to major or minor ranking, of course. Sin is sin.
Reviling is there too, but doesn't apply [he says] to reviling Jehovah's Witnesses.
The world is plagued with Bible ignorance. His is of one kind, yours is of another.
Sometimes ignorance is bliss....
Re:James has two or three favorite things
And YOU have how many "favorite things"?
Would people that are ignorant of the Bible be ONE of your favorite things to correct/condemn?
Rhetorical question....
I have to admit that it's a pleasure when I see liberals/Dems eating their own for a change.....
If you mean ridicule, we're used to it. Prophesied, from you, Bill, James. Comes with the job.
But, never mind that now.
There are no rhetorical questions to Jehovah. He's been hearing the strangest ones for centuries. Always answers those who ask in sincerity. Although sometimes he just sends the ones who know where the answers are in the Bible.
Jesus' favorite thing was to talk about his father's kingdom. His last instructions to us were to do the same. Mt 28:19,20; 24:14. So we do. Along the way we do our best to counteract Bible ignorance with truth. John 17:17. Some listen, most do not. Most are still wrapped in man's governments, expecting different results from centuries of misgovernment.
So, our favorite thong is to do the warning work. Think of the flood. Badness everywhere, God took notice, purposed an end to it, sent messengers to give warning and to notify repentant ones of a refuge, then in his good time, kaboom! We know where we are in that picture. We know where you and Bill and Toni and Proffitt are, as of now- outside the ark. That's why we keep warning, until our leader tells us to stop.
Besides, it's fun to be on the winning side. And, we don't condemn. The Bible does that now, and kaboom! will do it later. Heb 4:12.
I left in a typo, for the humor. Humor is godly: Duck billed platypus. 1Tim 1:11.
How many times does a person have to be HBH before someone figures out they don't want to see you?
In place of worship (synagogue), in the temple, by invitation to someone's home, or outside of town in convenient spot so those who wanted to hear him could come.
When he gave The Great Commission to them, where did they teach in each village? Most likely the synagogue, as Jesus did.
John 16:2 -'These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended. They shall put you out of the synagogues:
The Ministry of the Twelve
(Mark 6:7-13; Luke 9:1-6)
5These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: 6But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. 7And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. 8Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. 9Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses, 10Nor scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat. 11And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, inquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence. 12And when ye come into an house, salute it. 13And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you. 14And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet. 15Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.
Did they do door knocking? I sort of doubt it.
The uniformed clergy is certain they did not. They ring the church bells and open the doors to wait for the people.
We go to the people - as biblical Christians did - and ring their doorbells. Acts 20:20.
No seminary training for those 'unlettered and ordinary' folks.
We use every means we can to fulfill the Great Commission, as Christians should.
Works for us.
Not in the New World Transliteration????
I used to think it was mainly the anal penetration by sodomy that offended God, because it was unhealthy, not to mention perverted, then noticed this, and oops, there were the lesbians too.
" 22Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was deserved."
Venereal disease, STD's, HIV, et al. Lesbians have a much greater risk of cancers, as reported even by this very liberal media outlet.
Hmm, then I guess that means around ten percent of the world population is perverted?
Last time I checked, homosexuality is *not* a choice. If it was, why would one prefer to endure persecution? Just wondering here...
Rick
Just like smoking is a choice, or drinking, et al. One chooses to engage in such activity. Same with ****-sex. They make the choice to engage in such.
and came with instructions and a Grand Instructor.
***-sniffing among dogs is a common behavior, and useful, I'm told. How do you greet strangers?
*** is donkey, of course.
Sure, homosexuals *could* decide to refrain from sex - of any kind at all. Should they deny their natural impulse with willing partners? Why? Just because it upsets a subset of civilization?
I try to think how I myself would feel if my natural attraction to women was somehow verboten. An "upside down world" if you will. Would I like that world? I don't think so.
In my experience the vast majority of gay men and lesbians I've known were "born that way" - they knew they were different from an early age. If you think they are somehow defective because of that, then I'd surmise that that is *your* problem, not theirs.
Love has no labels - if it does, it ain't love at all.

Have you read the one-sentence love story in the Bible? One of the nicest I've known. Gen 24:67.
I get your meaning. But many people would opine that a sexless existence would be missing one of the joys of life. Denying it is possible, granted. So is living in a box. Is it good to do so? Why?
Again, I'd say what if the "rules" were different and heterosexuality was proscribed? What if someone told *you* your manifesto was rubbish, morally? Would it make sense to you? I myself would rebel.
