I believe the original suspects in the murder of Sherri Rasmussen who robbed houses also robbed those banks via the storm drains!

In the murder of Sherri Rasmussen, which was solved later as a female cop had killed her, there was initially 2 male suspects that had broken into a house in the same area. However, those 2 house robbers did not kill Sherri! I wonder if those 2 men are the same who robbed a bank underground via tools and storm drains?!

1) The sketches of both men in both cases look similar, not exact.
2) The time is similar! the murder Feb, 1986 vs June, 1986 (bank robbery)
3) The location is exactly the same - LA or Hollywood!
4) Neither cases have been solved.
5) Both cases were about money or belongings = theft.

Did they graduate from house burglars to big bank robberies? It makes "cents" because thieves usually want more and more or they later love the challenge of something bigger, better, and badder. And although they were early suspects in a murder case they stayed away from bloodshed and remained focused on stealing valuables/$. Do you agree with me?

There is definitely a strong similarity. Also I wonder what they saw while they were casing Sherri's neighborhood?

Good question! it reminds me of the saying "evil vs evil" which I only rarely hear about in horror movies, true crime shows, etc. Otherwise its always the regular standard "good guy vs bad guy" stuff. Did those 2 men see anything suspicious when the evil cop Stephanie Lazarus was spying on Sherri Rasmussen in the weeks before her murder, but also on the day of her murder and in the days after?!

You never know: the 2 house robbers may have seen her while they were planning on breaking into Sherri's house. If they saw her they cant come forward now because police might match them up to the new sketches of the "2 dudes with attitude"...

There is definitely a strong similarity. Also I wonder what they saw while they were casing Sherri's neighborhood?

remember that other UM tunnel digging segment by mexico/Texas border?! Both cases sure know how to dig tall tunnels.

Soil conditions were favorable. LE wasn't expecting it. So they had the element of surprise!

This is definitely an interesting theory. The "burrowing burglars (https://unsolvedmysteries.fandom.com/wiki/Burrowing_Burglars)" segment is among my personal favorites. I wish there was more interest in bank robbery suspects, especially the ones that are really, really good at it. Yes, they are absolutely common crooks. But, there's something a little 'more' to their crimes, especially the successful ones. I'm thinking about Ray Lewis Bowman and William Arthur "Billy" Kirkpatrick (aka 'The Trenchcoat Robbers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trenchcoat_Robbers)'). Bank robbery was seemingly their full-time job for the better part of 15 years. One of their bank robberies was featured (https://unsolvedmysteries.fandom.com/wiki/Valley_Bank_Robbery) on Unsovled Mysteries but failed to lead anywhere. The association between Bowman, Kirkpatrick and that UM segment is something that isn't as well known as it maybe should be. Those guys were pros, until they weren't.

Back to your theory. Without knowing a ton about who did the sketches, is it possible the same sketch artist or law enforcement agency was responsible for the two sketches? Thus, the similarities?

The crimes were in the Los Angels area so there is a good chance the sketch artists were the same or trained the same. Sketches can vary wildly so it is interesting these groups are pretty close.
There was a woman who did color portraits. I think she may have been featured on Unsolved Mysteries. Her work was dead on.
Anyway UFOHealer found and interesting connection.
