The New York driver, who requested his name not be used, said he dropped off Gilbert to the home of a client in Oak Beach at about 2 a.m. on May 1. Gilbert's price: $250 an hour, the driver said.
He said he spent three hours in his SUV outside the gated community, playing poker over the Internet and sleeping, when Gilbert's client phoned him at about 5 a.m., saying Gilbert was refusing to leave the house.
Why? Why was she refusing to leave the house if she was so afraid they were trying to kill her? Did she not want to walk back to the gate where the driver was parked for fear of being followed by the drifter or another party guest.
The driver said he drove back to the client's house and found Gilbert, who was clothed, in the living room on the phone with a 911 operator, saying that a man was after her.
"I said 'Shannon, Get a grip. Let's go,' and she said, 'You guys are trying to kill me.' So I said, 'OK, I am leaving.' But then she said, 'Don't go.'"
Gilbert eventually ran from the house, the driver said. The driver said he ran after Gilbert, who is bipolar and has a history of cocaine abuse, but then lost track.
He said drove around the gated community and outside the complex -- texting and calling her furiously on his cell phone -- before leaving the area 6 a.m. and believing that Gilbert would somehow make her way back to Jersey City.
Why did Shannan suddenly run from the house after the driver arrived? One minute she was speaking to 911 fully clothed saying a man was after her, then she is described as being irrational while running door to door for help.
Here is my theory FWIW!
It sounds like Shannan disappeared between 5 and 6 am. the sky is gettin lighter outside with every minute. She is running around the neighborhood drawing attention to her plight and had already been on the line with 911. 3 neighbors encountered or saw her...GC, the unidentified lady, and the Dr. The johns have to perform due diligence to get rid of any drugs, adult toys or other evidence that could cause them problems when the police arrive. The driver is sent to fetch Shannan and sees her at the DR.s house before he apprehends her and delivers her back to the johns house where he tells the johns where he finally found her. The driver is told to leave and they will sober her up and arrange for her to return home. After driver leaves, Drifter takes off with Shannan in tow before the cops arrive.
I think the johns arranged for 'Shannan's Driver' but had no idea that the driver met Shannan's bf when he picked her up. The driver doesn't know what really happened to Shannan, prolly just a college kid who drives for a few clients to make a buck, and after all he has been employeed by the john previously and trusts him. So he agrees to go with the bf to search for Shannan which causes further complications for the johns.
So the johns need to implicate someone else and since Driver saw her near the Doc's house, one of the john's who is a neighbor of Doc makes the call to Shannan's mom posing as the Dr. as he still has her cell phone and retrieves the number.(I stated early on in this case that I think the killer is a poser)
In the meantime, Drifter man calls his mum to tip her off stating he is in GA and not to be surprised if she sees his name in the news. (GA is prolly NOT where he is at all) But he took Shannan along with him to dispose of her along the way. i sure hope LE and FBI are searching for this drifter. If he only comes to LI around holidays, and orders strippers/escorts (*I use the word strippers becasue of someone I knew who would brag about ordering 'strippers' to his home. He would order them thru escort services.) how would anyone know or suspect him as a SK because the women use alias'.
I hope this all makes sense. Ok everybody, tear this theory apart! I am going to do real life stuff but will be checking in.
MOO

ETA I think Shannan was afraid of the driver because he really wasn't HER driver, but he had driven her on previous visits to jb's. She saw him as JB's employee...MOO
