Timeline of the last week of Lisa Harnum's Life
Notes: I began creating a final 24 hours timeline, however it is really relevant to include Lisas preparations to leave. I have deliberately left out a great deal of SGs alleged version of events, because the overwhelming position in the judgement was that he was not to be trusted. It has also been really difficult, due to international time zones to pinpoint the exact times of conversations and the content of those between Lisa and her mother. I am sorry if anything is incorrect please tell me!
I tried to break down the bits we knew with tags like "TEXT MESSAGE" etc. Some of them aren't the greatest headings, just how my mind works. Where a timestamp wasnt available, I've used **.** and given an approximation in brackets. It's not a pretty document (attached) because its still a WIP
