I think the first picture is one of those Senior Year pictures so I don't think we can really make judgments about it; like how innocent she looks because she's on a swing since the school's the one who would choose all of those things. It doesn't look like she was just swinging in her backyard and someone took a picture; it looks like a photoshoot.
I don't know if this has been asked/discussed. I've been periodically reading along, but it's been sporadic over the past 2 days.
Krista is only 20, so I'm trying to keep that in perspective, but she *appears* to be a bit more risque and hanging out with people who look a lot more *experienced* than she does....on her FB page, at least.
Has LE discussed any possible connection to drugs or who it is that she knew in Conway?? I've got to wonder if Krista was there for something illegal.....and got involved with the wrong person/s or substance.
I don't know.....on that FB page....I see a beautiful, young, innocent girl trying to fit in with someone with a lot more experience than herself. Just an opinion.

She obviously knows the area well (also the other person connected to this 'other child') so is it possible this was a route they'd often take to get to their destination and/or where her friends live?
eta..Very strange her family has NOT heard a word from any of her friends in that area.
I'm agreeing with Krista here. I know the first shot is a posed, professional shot. But, I have looked at every photo of her posted and she really seems to be an innocent, young mom, with a girl next door smile. Not "sexy", "experienced", etc., like some of her friends. For example, in the photos where her friends are doing that pouty mouthed "I want sex" face that so many young women seem to think is cool these days, she either responds with her usual All American girl smile, not able to "get" the tone of the photo, at least as her friends want it, or she attempts to make the pouty face but does not succeed.
No, there is something innocent about her. I wonder if she got a boyfriend, got pregnant and then as a result, got involved with people she normally would not have, like his ex girlfriends, etc. People that saw her as vulnerable, saw her as not fitting in, were jealous of her in some way and decided to harm her. These things happen: "Let's get her. She thinks she's so great. She needs to go." And then they call her to come over for some reason and lay in wait and then run into her car while on the road. Seeing it's someone she knows, she opens the door to check and talk, thinking it was an accident.
Something bothers me about those friends near the area she was found not contacting her family at such a time.
Of course, it could also have been a stalker that she knew, or a stranger that she didn't know. But what bothers me about that scenario, if indeed she did drive her car to the location it was found, is why she would open her car door, on a lonely road, if someone hit it or if otherwise she had some issue with another driver or with her car? Especially if she had reported that someone was scaring her. Wouldn't she call someone on her cell? Call the police first? Perhaps not. Maybe stunned, she opened the door a bit and got out to check and was waylaid. But, as a mom of a young baby she needs to protect and at a late hour, in a lonely place, that makes it less likely that she would open herself up to danger in that way. I don't know. She could have. People make mistakes.
The other possibility is that she was harmed at home and her car transported to where it was found, with the baby, as some have suggested. I guess we'll see. Poor thing. I hope she is okay but this is not a good situation at all.
I appreciate your tactful approach to warning me though! I am all the wiser now! (Has links saved just in case)
