I noticed on her older Facebook pictures she was/is a smoker. Very hard to be a runner if you smoke. Being an ex smoker myself, I struggle with running. Light jogs and fast walks is about it for me.

The alleged severity of the attack feels personal.
Still ... I am on the fence regarding a random attacker, though !
Omo.

Think the only thing that feels random for me is the rock, if that’s true. Whoever did it used whatever they could grab, being a rock.

I think this is very interesting actually. Because news reports made mention of the fathers and a reporter stated that the last activity was a custody hearing 6 years ago which is true. But as you discovered by going into the docket that case was reopened - and he lost. This was going on through the end of the year (literally end of Dec) and there may have been lingering feelings about it between them that carried into 2023. This is very relevant imo. Whether it leads to anything is a different matter, but it's certainly relevant and I'm thinking LE must be looking into this. Thanks for sharing this.

I think so too.

Random and targeted at the same time.
I think she had been watched, since she ran there regularly. A very attractive petite woman caught someone's eye before this happened.
Person may have approached her, made advances, was rebuffed, he attacked her. This scenario has happened in numerous other cases, as listed upthread.
imo

What other aspects besides the weapon, don't feel random to you?

Definitely could be random, however statistically the odds are higher she knew the person. If the reports are correct that her face was smashed, then it seems more personal in my opinion. Plus I’m in no way judging…..each their own but she did put her self out there on Facebook and now we hear dating sites. This could have been done by anyone that had a fancy for her at the gym, dating site, or it could have been someone the new boyfriend knows, didn’t one article somewhere say he was living in a recovery house? Maybe someone was feeling jealousy of his new found love. Whoever it is, I just feel they knew who she was.

This was a permanent order in 2017; was re-opened as an "emergency" motion in 2019 (what happened with Rachel in 2019?); was dismissed and then was re-opened again in 2022 as a petition to modify visitation. This was going on for years and even with a final order in 2017, was still never-ending at the time.

Look at the standard of relief required in order to meet the requirements for an emergency motion:

Standard for Relief
  1. There must be sufficient showing that there is an imminent risk of harm or harassment to a party or minor child, unless there is sufficient showing that there will be an imminent loss of jurisdiction or removal of the child from the state.
  2. Purely speculative evidence of harm in [sic] insufficient to grant emergency relief.


There is other relief listed by way of another motion but this emergency motion must be grounded on an actual emergency.

The rock I find the most puzzling. You would think a man’s strength would be enough to strangle her or bang her head against the ground…….sorry being so detailed but the rock just stands out to me.
