I know women who appear "woozy" most of the time (you know, the high maintenance types). It is just their demeanor, they are not drunk or high.
If you are drunk or otherwise incapacitated you will have troubled walking, be stumbling or behave in a generally lethargic or uncoordinated manner. The video showed her doing nothing of the sort, so she was not intoxicated. The visual evidence that you can see for yourself speaks for itself.
Ask yourself this, if she appeared "woozy" (but not intoxicated to the point of creating a disturbance), why would anyone notice or care enough about what a random stranger was doing to be able to remember that days or weeks later? Obviously this is a memory that was being created in their minds after the fact so they can create their 15 minutes. No one can prove them wrong, so they can say whatever they like about that. I would find their testimony more credible if she was not some random stranger, but someone they knew, or if she was creating an obvious disturbance such as stumbling over chairs or something like that. But they didn't know her from a bar of soap and she was behaving normally. So why should I believe them?
Me - I go by what I see for myself, and it is clear from the video IMO that she was fine at the restuarant and when she left.
First off, I know several "high maintenance" women and
none of them ever appear woozy. Either your judgement is off or they are using something without your knowledge of it.
IMO, a person who had taken Ambien that afternoon, followed by drinking alcohol would be in no condition to go snorkeling. Furthermore, two hours were uncounted for from the time Robyn and Giordano were seen leaving the restaurant, until he called for help. Her condition could have deteriorated further during that period of time.
If Robyn went missing during snorkeling, the combination of drugs and alcohol could have played a part, IMO. To me, it's very suspicious that a person would even suggest taking somebody snorkeling knowing drugs and alcohol were used.
Another suspicious circumstance.....
Robyn was "not a random stranger" to her friends and family. They would know her best. Several of them indicated Robyn would
never go snorkeling. Her brother, Andrew Colson said, "She just wouldn't want to ruin her makeup or get her hair wet." Her boyfriend, Richard Forester said, "Robyn was unwilling to even put her head below the water in a pool, lest it ruin her hair." Her friend and hairdresser, Christina Jones, said "Robyn was careful about getting wet, and is not one to snorkel as Giordano says she did." In addition, a restaurant worker (a stranger to Robyn) said he thought it was odd to hear that the couple went snorkeling because Gardner "seemed so perfectly put together," referring to her clothing, hair and make-up.
Additional suspicious circumstance....
There is speculation Giordano did a dry run the day before Robyn went missing. Why go back to the same place two days in a row when you only have a couple days on the island? A coincidence?
Shocking surveillance video from the day before Robyn Gardner disappeared shows her being led by Giordano to the stretch of beach from which she would vanish a day later,
in what experts believe could have been a test run before she was murdered. The footage shows the Toyota Rav-4 which the pair had rented parked in the same spot it would be left on the day of Robyn's disappearance. Other shots show them walking near the restaurant where they shared their last meal on the following day. The video was taken at 3.41pm, around the same time of day she vanished a day later.

You say, why would anyone notice or care enough about what a random stranger was doing to be able to remember that days or weeks later?
IMO, Robyn's appearance made her stand out among other tourists in the restaurant. She was "noticed and easily remembered" based on her attire and Giordano's comments. I'm sure most were not dressed to kill with a full face of makeup, implants, high wedge shoes, long dress, etc. That alone would call attention to oneself. Also, the server at the restaurant said Giordano "inexplicably" jumped up after the couple sat down and introduced himself, saying, "My name is Gary and this is Robyn and we're from Maryland." He found the behavior odd and reported it to authorities. Robyn and Gary were not forgettable days or weeks later.
I would not discount a witness simply because they don't know a person or their behavior. If that were the case, most witnesses statements would be discounted and nobody would ever come forward with information.
"I can see for myself" that there were
several suspicious circumstances surrounding the disappearance of Robyn Gardner at the hands of Gary Giordano. They can't be dismissed and could potentially affect Giordano's insurance claim especially since he is beneficiary and the last person seen with Robyn. JMO
