I think he planted a decoy the day before innawoods
he disassembled his rifle, put it in his backpack, and bolted into the trees roughly where he planted the gun
cops find what they think is the murder weapon which would tie up a ton of attention and resources during a manhunt
if he was really smart he would’ve had someone else hold it for him before he stashed it, list the rifle on Craigslist, someone shows up and sights it for a second, change your mind and throw them gas money for their trouble, now you have a patsy
