Nice.

that's why you don't make a single plan, you make multiple plans. always have backups. do sufficient research, both of methodology and the victim's habits and patterns. always come up with a solid alibi and make sure it's airtight so it can't be easily disproven. if you're not already familiar with way to minimize physical evidence left behind, definitely research that as well.

additionally, unless you're ballsy enough to leave the victim at the scene (or dispose of them through other, more "creative" means) do thorough geographical research beforehand to determine the best possible dumping ground. try to determine when the surrounding area is most active and plan around that so you won't be seen.
