I've been reading but not posting. Such a heartbreaking story and sad outcome. Their smiles were infectious and they seemed very much in love. My deepest condolences to family and friends. RIP Alex.
 
Per the reporter's Twitter, the second body is confirmed as Tatianna Diz: [video=twitter;662691053946994688]https://twitter.com/leahbuletti/status/662691053946994688[/video]
 
I hope there is some comfort to their families and friends that they were together till the end.
 
So sad. At least they are together and the families can start to heal. Sending my thoughts and prayers for all that loved them.

Yes you stole the words :)

Sad they are gone but so relieved the families can start to grieve and work towards justice for their two beautiful girls.


ETA: Alex & I share our birthday so now it all makes sense to me. Capricorns tend to have those connections.
 
To hear how much they touched people's lives and how bright and happy they were makes me very sad that they are no longer among us. RIP Alex and Tati.

After finding King's body around 3:30 p.m. Thursday, crews continued searching until dark. They resumed searching Friday morning, and less than half an hour after boats entered the water, Diz's body was found around 10:30 a.m.

Both women were identified based on body markings and sent to Wake Forest for forensic autopsies, which will provide more positive identification, according to the Buncombe County medical examiner's office.

I am glad they found each other in life, and if their road had to end they were together. They seemed to fill each other with joy and life, and I am going to hold my partner that much tighter tonight.
 
We all expected this outcome but it is still a very sad thing to read.

RIP Alex and Tati, you were together in life and in death, and now beyond too.
 
RIP Tatianna. I pray you and Alex are together tonight and always.
 
This article also states that the girls left at 930 and the roommate sent them a text at 1008 but received no reply. All the other articles I've read stated "around" or "approximately" 10pm and no specific time the roomate tried to contact them. Unless I missed something in the other articles?

The early articles all were saying that they left around 9:30 and were supposed to be back shortly after 10 to carve pumpkins or something with the roommate.

It was when the warrants were released a few days later that the timeline shrunk to them leaving around 10.

That makes me think LE was getting that from Alex's phone they found and was likely the last text, thus making that a hard and fast time since the phone was left.

But the very specific "10:08" call from the roommate, which hasn't budged time wise since the get go, also makes me think that must be accurate and visible from the roommate's phone.

Whether they left at 9:30 or 10, that max of 38 minutes for them to have had to do the deal, etc. seems pretty tight anyway, and seems very quick for the roommate to already be worried about them. It actually makes me wonder if they had expressed hesitation to the roommate or if the roommate was uneasy about it all or something? :thinking:

Here's one of the first articles showing the early timeline pre-warrant release time change:

Tuesday, October 27

9:30 p.m. - Relatives say Alex and Tatianna gave Griffin a ride at Canterbury Place apartments.
10:08 p.m. - family members say the women's roommate texted but didn't hear back from either woman.
10:30 p.m. - Asheville police say Griffin shoots and kills Uhon Johnson at Pisgah View apartments.

Here's something from the same source then changing it to 10 post warrants:

Documents state it was about 10:00 p.m. Tuesday when the women left their apartment at Canterbury Heights to take Griffin to Deaverview.

<snip>

According to the warrants, records from King's cellphone reveal that King and Diz were traveling with Griffin to an unknown location for a drug transaction, also the warrants state that Griffin and his girlfriend were house-sitting at another apartment in Canterbury Heights Tuesday.

Part of why I think LE must have gotten that just about 10 pm time for them from Alex's phone is that they seemed much more definitive about the time, whereas with their comment about Pierre returning to the GF's was "sometime after 9."

That's totally vague and from what we know, about 90 minutes earlier than he possibly could have gone back to the apartment since from 9-10 he was at least home until 9:30 - and if you take LE's timeline over the family's, there until 10. And then he had to have "done something bad" prior to returning, plus get to Uhon's, meaning he really couldn't have gotten back there until 10:45 or so.

The stark contrast in those times and their specificity and plausibility make me think the 10 pm time is probably closer to when they left than 9:30. But...that's JMO.
