MOO, but unfortunately I agree. At some point during the three months Chelsea has been missing it seems logical to assume she would have made contact with family or friends if she had been able to do so. AFAIK this has not been the case.Realistically speaking...IMHO they are long gone.
Where did you hear she has a sister in AZ? Her sister lives on the east coast and she only has a single sister afaik
I keep a lizard. It's just like most pets. Wash your hands after handling them. It's no big deal. I've had a blue tongue since 2007, and I've never got sick from touching it.Bumping for Chelsea
I immediately thought of this thread when I read this article, and thought of Chelsea Grimm and her pet Bearded Dragon. I don't know a thing about Bearded Dragons, and didn't know this.
"Bearded dragons can carry Salmonella germs in their droppings even if they look healthy and clean. These germs can easily spread to their bodies and anything in the area where they live and roam," the CDC warns.Common household reptile linked to outbreak of 32 salmonella cases in the US
The outbreak, caused by this popular pet, spawned at least 10 hospitalizations.www.the-express.com
Bumping for Chelsea
I immediately thought of this thread when I read this article, and thought of Chelsea Grimm and her pet Bearded Dragon. I don't know a thing about Bearded Dragons, and didn't know this. Any chance she fell ill suddenly?...

Yeah, I mean, if her mental health was on the family's radar (whether they thought it was a concern or not), it's something you hope is being followed up on.I hope she’s okay too, but I’m concerned. In this article shared above ( Missing woman from Ocean Beach last seen in Arizona ) the family mentions she sometimes struggled with mental health. Wish they could be more specific…
Yes I agree. The amount of time Chelsea has been out of communication with family and friends is both notable and concerning.I ran across this case here a few days ago and read through the first few dozen pages. Chelsea's unusual behavior prior to disappearing have me concerned about what might have happened. I hope Chelsea is okay
It is more likely something happened to Chelsea than her choosing to vanish of her own accord. Succumbing to the elements after becoming lost in the wilderness, or foul play befalling her, is more likely than Chelsea spontaneously deciding to live off the grid without telling anyone or taking supplies.After taking a deep dive into this case and reviewing all of the information on Chelsea, I thought I would share my thoughts on may have happened to Chelsea Grimm. Obviously, this is all speculation based on the information that we have concerning her disappearance.
I do believe that Chelsea may have intentionally gone off the grid as a response to possible stressors in her life, including the end of a possibly toxic relationship (based on the ex-boyfriend’s profile). Based on the information that I’ve read, Chelsea had previous experience at a teen wilderness camp when she was younger, suggesting that she does possess survival skills, which could aid her in living independently. Her family also confirmed that she was an experienced camper and self-reliant. Using Euro money is a strategy to mislead those who might be searching for her, effectively diverting them from her trail. She literally stated herself in the video taken of her at that motel that she was looking to “stay off the grid”. The flat tires on her car found in Williams, Arizona, may have been staged to mislead authorities.
My theory is that she might have sought refuge in off-grid locations or communities in Arizona, which the state is known to have. Those would definitely be areas of interest to look into if I were the authorities.
That is true. I never thought about the dragon. I wonder if she may have gotten into another vehicle and left. I agree that she had a lot of responsibilities. I just hope that there will be news soon on her whereabouts.It is more likely something happened to Chelsea than her choosing to vanish of her own accord. Succumbing to the elements after becoming lost in the wilderness, or foul play befalling her, is more likely than Chelsea spontaneously deciding to live off the grid without telling anyone or taking supplies.
I do not think Chelsea would have put her dragon as risk by spontaneously going off the grid without being prepared; going off the grid means her dragon would presumably not have access to vet care. Chelsea also had an apartment, a relatively new car, and other responsibilities that were not taken care of before she left.
IMO this would be the most likely scenario.It is more likely something happened to Chelsea than her choosing to vanish of her own accord. Succumbing to the elements after becoming lost in the wilderness, or foul play befalling her, is more likely than Chelsea spontaneously deciding to live off the grid without telling anyone or taking supplies.
What interesting insight! I could see this as a possibility.After taking a deep dive into this case and reviewing all of the information on Chelsea, I thought I would share my thoughts on may have happened to Chelsea Grimm.

Early on I felt she may have intentionally went "off the grid," but I don't feel like this is likely anymoreIt is more likely something happened to Chelsea than her choosing to vanish of her own accord.

I truly believe there are only two possibilities here:Early on I felt she may have intentionally went "off the grid," but I don't feel like this is likely anymore
