​ If you’ve watched The Office , or are friends with a group of people who nearly consider it a religion, then you’ve heard the many theories as to who the Scranton Strangler could be. Some say it’s Creed, others say it’s Gabe or Andy. But this theory is all about Toby.

‼️Conspiracy Theory‼️

For my fans of The Office... Toby Flenderson is the Scranton Strangler. And I’ll tell you why... pic.twitter.com/DYuUb1q3NY — Spencer McClure (@spencermcclure_) March 11, 2018

Twitter user Spencer McClure has tweeted out a thread about why he believes Toby is the Scranton Strangler, outlined in multiple posts. He starts off by outlining Toby’s motives.





Toby’s in a job that doesn’t pay well, and no one in the office likes him. Outside of work, he is divorced and watches Pam, his office crush, eventually fall in love with Jim.





The final nail in the coffin for Toby is his accident when he decides to get away from work and go to Costa Rica. He is stuck there for months and doesn’t come back until the sixth season of the show.

When Toby does come back, so does the Scranton Strangler, right after Jim and Pam have their baby. At the beginning of the episode, Michael blocks Toby from the elevator when they all visit Pam in the hospital. He was the only one missing.





Later, for Cece’s baptism, Toby has trouble going into church, asking God why everyone in the office is always so mean to him.





One last point from the thread: Toby is chosen for the jury responsible for convicting a man to be the Scranton Strangler, and is confident the perp is already behind bars. But he goes back on that during Michael’s last Dundies, where he admits his guilt at putting an innocent man in jail.

However, he went back on that later on in the show as he confesses in Michael’s last Dundies that he feels guilty that he put an innocent man behind bars... pic.twitter.com/3a218L2M46 — Spencer McClure (@spencermcclure_) March 11, 2018
