Her text reportedly said she was lost at 14th and Wertland St, which is literally around the corner from where she lives. Since her friends knew she had been drinking, they might have disregarded it. It was also sent quite late, and if it was sent to friends who had also been drinking, they may have been asleep/passed out by that point, or perhaps partying or otherwise busy and unaware that Hannah had texted them until sometime later. It's possible the text wasn't noticed until the next day. (If someone knows otherwise, please feel free to correct me - I haven't seen much definitive reporting on this particular point.)But if her last text said she was lost...wouldn't you check to see if she made it home?
I have wondered about that text, since I've also read that police believe autocorrect may have mangled it. But that's one heck of a mangle... Wertland is not a common name. Of course, now that we know her last known location, and since there's been mention that search dogs hit on Hannah's scent at the Water St. Parking Garage, I wonder if that could explain it.... could "I'm lost near 4th and Water Street" (about a block south of where she was last seen, and right at the corner of that garage) autocorrect to "I'm lost near 14th and Wertland St", esp if her phone had previously stored/sent references to the latter?
