How does it look racially motivated? 4 Asian-American women. 1 white guy and white woman were murdered, also American. The target is the spa. People were associated ,in this dude's mind, as running the spa. So that's where the association is. Not race or gender! If anything he's a disorganized killer and that shows because he crossed racial and gender lines. His victims were at the wrong place at the wrong time. He's opportunistic. Sweet Jesus!
