To say SG "came across as rambling and incoherent' is pure speculation, based on the stories of the very same persons of interest on the scene. Those stories seem to have taken on a life of their own, and superseded what SG herself told 911. The first responders should have taken any and all such statements with a grain of salt, at least until SG was found. Those statements should have been looked at for what they were: a cover story to explain why SG called 911. Therefore, any statements about SG being 'rambling and incoherent' should be taken VERY skeptically, in light of the victim's own words "They're trying to kill me".
BTW: I DO NOT buy the 'drug induced panic theory'. Most people who are chronic drug/alcohol users can still function quite well under the influence. I guess it doesn't need to be pointed out that SG had the presence of mind to determine she faced a grave threat to her life, and it turns out that she was 100% correct about that threat.
Who said anything about launching a major manhunt?
You are misconstruing what I actually said: unless and until SG was found alive, I would have been more dismissive of the alleged 'rambling and incoherent' condition than I would about SG's own statement of "they're trying to kill me", and if I were the first responding detective/officer I would have detained the key people and intensively questioned them at HQ, recording the entire process. I would have considered what everyone had said, but I certainly would be far more concerned about the possibility of someone being killed as opposed to being intoxicated. Death is PERMANENT, being intoxicated and lost is temporary. Therefore, one carries more weight than the other.
Obviously, the SCPD were both quick and oh so willing to dismiss SG's words in favor of the words of those who were personally involved with the events that fateful night.
I actually DO believe she was in a drug induced panic. The reason I believe that is because according to MP, SG and Brewer took a brief ride in his car, and we know for a fact that someone called CVS from SG's phone that night. So that statement about the car ride from MP rings true to me.
I think someone slipped Shannan something other than what she thought she was getting, and that's why she was out of control and in fear for her life. I think she KNEW they slipped her something, tried to call a pharmacist for help (maybe chickened out, or couldn't reach someone), couldn't express her thoughts coherently to Coletti or 911 because, by then, she was just flat out whacked.
I'm as sure of that as I'm sure I'm sitting here at this computer right now. But, it's still just my opinion. Take it or leave it.
