What was the motive for killing Casey? We never knew what her connection was to Stu and Billy. Or for Killing Tatum, for that matter.

Casey dumped Stu for Steve. It's explained in the water fountain scene.

Tatum was killed to get Sid alone at the party.

It's the millennium; motives are incidental.

Because she was home.

And she answered the phone.

Then hung up.

And because she dumped Stu for Steve.

Big no no.

And she was home alone.

You need to go back and pay more attention they clearly state like 20 minutes in that Casey and Stu dated and she dumped him lol for steve

It was explained at the fountain scene that Stu used to date Casey before she dumped him for Steve (or Stu dumped her for Tatum if you're willing to believe that).

The killers went after her because she was alone, vulnerable, and they needed a guinea pig to get started.
