Hi, The Quiet Girl. To argue that the only indications of her erratic behavior is about GC let her in ignores the case as we know it.
Whether Gus Coletti "let her in" (whatever that might mean) seems a quibble. He opened the door; he saw her. Would a person on the run from a killer not rush in? (Wasn't shelter the purpose of her knocking? After all, she had her own cellphone.) Or do they wait for an invitation?
Shannan Gilbert arrived at the john's house with her regular driver. He was known to her boyfriend and made his identity known thereafter. There is no evidence that he knew the john. By all indications, she refused the driver's understandable hope to complete his assignment and drive her home. Instead she remained in the area, with which she had no familiarity, running frantically from house to house.
Nineteen-and-a-half minute 911 calls are uncommon and she seems to have been in no immediate danger when she made the call, much of it spent with two men who didn't know each other in the room. "Based on her 911 call," police described her as "disorientated" and "paranoid." To me, that sounds erratic, not "pretty on-key behavior," and, unlike everyone writing here, they actually heard the call. Her bipolarity and serious issues with cocaine and other drugs have been mentioned by the police, the family, and others.
People here want to solve the crime. The only cases connected with Long Island lack adequate details for "successful" sleuthing, so people here have become fixated on Shannan's tragic night of panic.
I cannot disagree with your more on this.
The 1st bold by me, it is questionable if even did that.
The 2nd bold by me. Oh yes she was... she did die besides that fact because it has not been determined how yet. She told the 911 she was in danger to be killed. She could not trust anyone, why we do not know exactly what happened, if she saw something or not or was told something. I will never blame the victim and take their word for it. It is a major risk for a prostitute to call the police for help as stated.
As far as the police claiming that she was erratic... they have contradicted that account themselves. Why was she erratic on the phone? She was not able to tell them where she was, well she did not know the area and was driven there for one.
She was on key to call 911 for help, it is after all what we are taught to do from childhood. Thank God she did or none of this may have come to light.
Thank You Shannan Gilbert.
