The last thing that Max says to Barry is that he is going to turn him in to the police. It is later established that the killer had followed the four leads to the fishing pier and had taken pictures. This implies that he had witnessed the scene where Barry threatens Max and finally learned that Max was present when the car accident happened. This provides a motive about the murder of Max, since the police would have taken Barry into custody for the assault against Max or at least would have watched him. Further investigation about the involvement of the five teens in the fatal night with possible links to the David Egan drowning case would have led to even more interrogations and undoubtedly the killer's plans would have been foiled since he had only a couple of days before the 4th of July. This explains why Max was dispatched right afterwards while the killer continued to stalk the other 4 leads knowing that they could not resort to the police.
