So much scum....but finally we see the back story on these so-called "friends" who "helped" (for a fee of $250 a day) MBB post her ads, "because she didn't have a computer."
Loosely, or just not as tightly, acting as a pimp might do (doing the same sort of work) and or protection (the person she calls when she goes up and when she is done)...maybe even as a driver sometimes. Of course, before there is this guy (Vips/Vipul) there is the "business manger/promoter" who gets her set up with her pics and hooks her up with Vips.
From Kolker's book, per Sarah, we find that MBB was recruiting, then struck out on her own, placing her own ads, even doing out calls...and more drugs then we have been led to believe.
Ah, and the day before she disappeared she visited her "well known" graffiti artist friend, who would take their new look pictures and...paint Sarah and MBB's faces.
We have often discussed how the clues to GB4 probably have to be in MBB's story
(My mind goes back to the creepy mural, the creepy mural guy's photos and more.)
But my mind also goes back to striking out on her own and cutting out the "middle men" (Vips and Al) From what Sarah said...Vips had a java script that could get their ads bumped to the top. When the girls came back on their own, posted their new pics and new ads...someone kept alerting on them, kept getting them pulled...and here we are right back at the beginning...
