Its been said by the OC Register that they attended the same high school, which seems easy enough to confirm, but I dont think its been verified that they were HS friends. I think that was just what the driver was claiming. (It certainly could be true, but now weve seen that other pieces of the drivers story arent adding up either.)
And yes, BB was definitely gay. He was seen on Tinder and Grindr, and his Tumblr has several posts indicating that he liked men and at certain points was having difficulty coming out to his family.
Good point. They could have easily met on a dating/hookup app and then when B.B. figures out they went to the same HS that could have lured him into a false sense of security.
