Then why would he call 911? Police didn't even know where she was calling from until he called.
They didn't know that dispatch DID NOT know her location!! They hadnt a clue what Shannan had blabbed to the dispatcher.. Once she fled off Brewer's property the cover story was already being created and executed to as best as possible turnicate what a disastrous mess this chick had caused them.. She did the unthinkable and definitely the unexpected in that here she is a hooker, drug user and she against all odds called 911 for help.. IMO this is something they'd not counted on and not had happened prior due to their victims being criminals themselves in their being hookers, drug users, etc, etc.. It was always an advantage in that they would not seek to have LE involvement.. And what I mean by that is that when a woman's instincts kick in its long before the moment of their actual death.. Long before that moment do their instincts kick in overdrive saying ALERT!! SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG HERE!!.. At that moment when they are still somewhat of their own free will.. Up til the victim, Shannan NONE of those women had grabbed their phones and reached out to involve 911 and IMO that's because they too are the last ppl who want police involvement.. The killer(s) know that and they exploit that..
Shannon proved different!! She unlike the others upon their gutteral instincts, she did in fact do the unexpected, the unthinkable, SHANNAN LISTENED TO HER INSTINCTS AND IMMEDIATELY GRASPED OUT FOR HELP FROM THE MOST UNLIKELIEST OF PEOPLE, LE in her dialing 911..*
At that moment everything halted.. It was a game changer to say the least.. With her hiding when she initially began the 911 call it is my opinion that due To that fact JB&co. had no idea what information that Shannan had already given the dispatcher in those few moments prior to them realizing she was actually on the phone, connected with, and speaking to a LE dispatcher AND MOST IMPORTANTLY SHE WAS TELLING THAT DISPATCHER THAT THESE PEOPLE(and you damn well better believe that the ones she knew their names she was calling them out by name to the dispatcher) TELLING THE DISPATCHER THOSE PARTICULAR MEN WERE GOING TO KILL HER!!(we've been told you can hear both JB and MP saying "calmly" to Shannon that no, they're not trying to kill her).. This confirms that they knew AT THE VERY LEAST that Shannon was reporting to LE dispatch that they were trying to kill her.. And they're not having heard the very beginning of that convo were left having ZERO CLUE IF SHANNAN HAD ALREADY TOLD DISPATCH HER *EXACT LOCATION!!..*
So, you see they could not physically overpower her as there was a live/open call connected to dispatch that Shannan had likely already told her location and names as well.. This would keep them from being able to subdue her and she flees the residence of Brewer..
Once shannan had fled they had zero choice but to immediately attempt to counteract what a potentially disastrous mess Shannan had put them in.. IMO they had to assume the worst that Shannan had given dispatch her location thus that gave them very little time to take counteractive measures..
IMO this is where Gus, his 911 call, and his "story" come into play.. They had to invent an account that could and would contradict Shannan's claims to dispatch.. What better way than for them, themselves to call 911 dispatch for assistance with counteractive measures in hopes of undoing the mess this "hooker" was causing them(IMO hooker being one of the nicer words they'd use to describe Shannan)..
I'm not attempting to claim that what I'm purposing is fact and exactly how things happened that night/early morning.. None of us likely will ever know for certain what all happened on that fateful night/morning.. But IMO its one of the more plausible theories that seem to fit IMO rather than some that seem to be square pegs shoved into a round hole, repeatedly as if one day if it's shoved hard enough it will miraculously fit perfectly..*shakes head*..
But in the end it's just an opinion like all the many others in the LISK forum..
But it is my opinion that Shannan was DIFFERENT!!
And Shannan not only did the unthinkable and unexpected in her a "criminal" herself she sought out LE immediately upon her instincts overwhelmingly ALERTING, whereas the others did NOT.. IMO she fought so very hard to survive and to live and IMO she almost made it!! But IMO what she was up against was way too big, way too powerful.. Even more so than beyond what she ever could've imagined.. In the end she lost her life but not without one helluva a fight and IMO NOT without causing great pain and anxiety to those involved.. IMO so much so that it was after Shannan's murder that the last two victims(that we know of) were somehow convinced to not bring their cell phones.. This group had banked on exploiting the fact that the victims were "criminals" as well and used that to their advantage in UP UNTIL SHANNAN the victims did not attempt/or atleast were not able to actually make contact as Shannan did with LE dispatch..
IMO they'd be damned to see that ever happen again hence we saw the last two victims have that option totally taken out of the equation with their not even having their cell phones, period..
All jmo, tho!
**I just wanted to add that IMO Shannan very likely was NOT the only one of these victims to put up a helluva a fight for her life against this killer(s).. My only reason for speaking of Shannan as "the fighter" is that she, unlike the rest we have so much clearer of a picture of that fateful nights events.. Of course mostly due to that 23min 911 call.. Therefor I'm able to attempt to better piece together the events of that night whereas with the others we havent an inkling of how those murders unfolded the night they occurred.. Nonetheless I do believe in my heart that other of these girls did give this killer(s) one helluva a fight and IMO I see Melissa most likely to have been a little hell cat that literally fought very hard to the end.. So much so that whatever it was that she did resonated within the killer possibly being what led to his sadistic calls after her death.. IMO I see that possibly as heaping more punishment on Melissa for having possibly caused him so much pain and anguish in her fighting him for her life.. In his mind how dare she and he punished her further for those actions by attempting to inflict pain and anguish on her most closest loved ones.. Again that's jmo, as well, tho..
