The Manicure-Pedicure set being the items that John chose to hide in such a bizarre fashion was the very same items that played such a prominent role in the killings! Now what are the odds of that?...Now remember,the children were manicured...which is also weird because if he just wanted to remove trace evidence that was already accomplished when he bathed them. So,I think this was a signature,which is some part of the crime scene that reveals part of a Serial Killers motive or inner mental state.This is just a guess but maybe John was purifying them almost like ritually cleansing them for a sacrifice...and I say this because at one time John did mention something to me about a cult...{
It reminds me of a good friend. Her father didn't approve of her
lifestyle. He was always saying, "clean the dirt out from under your
fingernails, and come home." Of course, her father didn't mean it
literally. The dirt under the fingernails, was a symbolic reference.
The killer's manicure of the children was probably the last thing he
did. It said, "this isn't my fault, and I'm washing my hands of all
responsibility." The manicure was a symbolic way of cleaning the dirt
of his actions, out from under his fingernails, and walking away with a
clean conscience. After all, in his mind, it wasn't his own hands that
did this. Society made him do it, and he held society responsible.
Well, that's my 2-cents worth of psychoanalysis.

That is a credible analysis, after all, the suspect told ME that he did hold society responsible for the things that he was denied and I agree further that the manicures took place post-mortem.......
