What if and this is a BIG FAT what if and only that. I have no proof of this...but...what if the prescription drug angle wasn't investigated because someone in LE is involved. I don't however think that there is a reason to murder SG unless she threatened to expose them when she called 911. It certainly wouldn't explain any of the other murders. I mean you need a LIVE person to fill a prescription right. I don't know...it has some holes in it. Like Slug said about a trail. I still think it's important somehow...the drug thing. What if (again) Since they couldn't get MP to go to CVS, instead they just bought from someone in the communities personal stash. I read in one of these threads (I'll try to hunt it down) SG and JB went for a short drive somewhere in the community. Where? For what?
One more what if. What if SG took some drugs thinking that she knew what they were but when they didn't have the effect she expected ( because maybe they were something other than what she was told) that's when she started freaking out thinking they were trying to kill her.
I know I know that's A lot of what ifs!
All of your opinions comments usually help me think things through and sort things out so have at it! ; ))
If CPH didn't write Rx's often enough to be 'flagged' for a Rx drug ring, then investigators may not have even thought about that angle. If the SCPD conspiracy theory is correct, they may not have even searched out the information because they didn't want to know, or because they didn't think to look in that direction.
This is all speculation. She may have called MP, asked him to go, but when he said he wasn't sure of the area, JB took her. There's a long stretch of her being on and off the phone with MP after the call to CVS (my assumption is to find out if it was open). If MP stuck around the neighborhood while SG went with JB to CVS, it would make sense that she was on the phone with MP. "Hey, we got there." "We're heading back." "Everything ok?"
Why MP would leave out a run to CVS to fill a Rx... if he knew (or didn't know) who wrote the Rx and SG went missing, he may be afraid to say anything.
Your first question gave me another "what if". What if JB's role was finding the women on Craigslist to fill Rx's, and that's all he believed was going on. What happened to the girls after, he may not have given thought... until GB4. That's why he could say, with conviction, he didn't have her there for sex.
This would be a plausible explanation for why CPH called Mari. "Rehab", "clinic," or whatever word was used could explain why he said that. Damage control in case the PD looked into that angle.
