Something is still bugging me about the Snapchat conversation. I think it's that she answered her roommate with "I'm with Eric" and then says it's a guy she just met. If you just met someone (which makes it sound like you met them that night), I don't feel like you'd answer someone saying "I'm with (person's name)." If you just met them, there's no way your roommate would know who you were talking about. So why would you just say "I'm with Eric" like they should know who that is?
I feel like I would respond with "I'm hanging out with a guy I just met." IDK it's weird to me. And she didn't say it was a guy she just met until she was prompted by being asked "who is that?" It does make me wonder if she sent those messages IMO.
Also the roommate asked WHERE she was at and she never answered the question. She said WHO she was with instead.
I have to say - out of everything - I am not focused on the Venmo vs. debit card, alligators vs wild pigs, locked gate vs. open...I CANNOT get this dialogue from the supposed text/Snap messages out of my head. This does NOT make sense. I'm not sure I believe this was actually a text/snap exchange.
IF these texts/SNAPS were ACTUALLY made - there is NO way a girl would respond to a girlfriend (that is as concerned as this one claims to be by 'waiting up' and saying I love you when she is about to see her in a few seconds (insert side eye), because she is SUPPOSEDLY close to home at that point) with "I'm with Eric" "a guy I just met"...and even if AB responded to her roommate with that answer - do you really think in a MILLION YEARS a roommate/friend in which was that close to the missing that she is 'waiting up' for her would not have said something along the lines of "huh" Eric who" 'a guy you just met, where"...there is no way in the world she would not have had questions. NO WAY! I don't believe a word of this. Either these texts were never actually sent (remember they received screen shots of the SNAPs) (there are generators that can create fake text messages) OR they were sent by someone else.
Her roommate is the last person to have any KNOWN interaction with her - apparently. At that point she was close to home. (insert side eye)
The " I'm so, so sorry" does NOT sit well with me. Nobody says that. For what? I'm so, so sorry is for if you did something...so, so wrong. The phrase makes no sense being used in this context. She didnt write that. Again, this is either fabricated OR someone had her phone.
Someone who knew her, knew the override code to get into her phone vs. face recognition disabled her 360 and then turned her phone off.
I very often sit silent...I rarely even attempt to come up with a scenario that i share out loud here...but something stinks here. I am afraid we are overlooking the obvious.
I at this point, can almost guarantee that a select 1-3 people I have in mind, know EXACTLY what happened to this beautiful girl.
Time will tell. I hope I am wrong.
