Very sad is it possible she went over the bridge?
Just a thought.

She likely got hit by a car. The driver could have picked her up to take her to the hospital. Maybe she died though. Maybe they were drinking. Maybe they hid the body.

It is unlikely a car hit her and the driver took the time to stop and drag her into their vehicle without anyone seeing a thing. Usually if they don't want to call 911, they just keep driving, unfortunately, but just my opinion.

LE needs to figure out where she was last seen on CCTV. And appeal to the public to check their dashcams, Ring doorbells, etc. for specific time-frames in specific areas, IMO.

I hope she went to a friend's house and just hasn't been ready to go home but will be located safe this weekend.

I am concerned about self-harm in this case.

I am too. I am also concerned how the last footage LE has shared of her being seen is going up the bridge and not back down the other side.

I believe the height of the Edison Bridge is 55 feet which is not terribly high, it is still really dangerous and could be a fatal fall.

All MOO. I hate to think the worst. Hopefully tomorrow we wake up to some positive news.

I am glad other runners are speaking up. This isn’t a training outfit. She wasn’t planning by on a long run, which seems relivant moo

In considering the possibility of self-harm, I am wondering … Has anyone heard/read anywhere whether Arielle’s alleged mental health struggles had been chronic/ongoing (e.g. generalized anxiety/clinical depression), or was she dealing with more of an acute issue/causal factor (e.g. a recent break-up)?

Is it actually the case that no ones knows whether she made it off the bridge, or is that speculation? Has anything been said by LE or family to indicate they think or know she made it off the bridge?
