This is actually a very interesting question… “He kills in threes” is very vague. Around other forums fans are guessing what it means. So far I've read…
“he kills 3 people each time he appears”
“he kills 3 different women in 3 different ways”
In a recent video of Season 4 previews along with commentary from the actors, it was explained that "It's always the same three kills with Trinity".
First, a young woman in a bathtub, followed by a mother falling to her death… and the third? Well, that is not known yet…
