A lot of things in this case don't really make much logical sense, whether that be self-harm or foul play.
There seems no obvious/discernible motive for someone to harm JJ. Also, why would anyone have driven the car so far before abandoning it, in an area at least a mile away from the river? The car didn't seem valuable (at least, for taking to a chop shop or to strip down and sell for parts).
I think self-harm is more likely, but it's like a 55-45; both theories seem overly complicated and unlikely, at least with the known/reported facts at present.
License plates theft is a thing, but IMO stealing the registration tags is far more common: it's far less noticeable and LE will pull cars over if the registration is expired.
"no obvious/discernible motive for someone to harm JJ. ".. Agreed, but that's what a random crime targeting a random victim is about. I feel like if this was a woman, there might not be as many questions about foul play being likely(not saying you at all, but public in general and LE).
That he seemingly disappeared during the day and if he was targeted, the person(s) chosing a healthy, strong, young man make it harder to understand but there are enough abductions, missing people, and homicides that are in fact random and senseless. Also, a weapon is a great nuetralizer (sorry I am kind of answering my own questions).
