The caroler went to sing to the "assailant" after he had already killed Blackmage.

The Sleepwalker (Blackmage) has no control over who he visits. He also doesn't know he's a Sleepwalker, just like the Loudmouth(LM) doesn't know he's the Loudmouth.

Blackmage visited the Mafia in his sleep, the caroler ALSO visited the Mafia member who killed Blackmage later on that night. I believe Mikey said something like "an hour prior" or something like that in the beginning of the next paragraph.

Unless Mikey doesn't know what Assailant means. Then my theory is completely off.
Mikey also said we "here" screams and shit. Don't rely on his linguistic prowess.

Blackmage successfully visited the killer, he didn't have to go anywhere...the caroler would also have successfully visited imo. At the very least, the journo would have noted the sleepwalker's presence. They wouldn't visit at different times, nothing I read hints at that anyway. The caroler might have visited the stalker, and he could have visited someone else like the journo. Could have even visited Blackmage for all we know.
