I am a 22 year old female and I live in Little River and work in NMB a few minutes from where Amber's body was found. Her case as well as Heather Elvis' case has stuck with me..
Something I have noticed since moving to LR (from Charleston in August of last year) is the HUGE homeless population, mainly in NMB... and I mean huge. I was shocked at how many homeless I see on a daily basis here. Unfortunately, many suffer from mental illness and/or are using drugs. We have unfortunately had an issue with them where I work on HWY 17 in NMB, and the Lowes Improvement store near my work has issues with them constantly.
Anyways, I wonder if something happened with a homeless person... whether they were pretending to be injured and she tried to help them, they jumped in front of her car (this has happened to ME before in NMB...) and she got out to help or something and they took advantage of her. Was anything stolen from the vehicle? Just a theory...
People here, especially women for obvious reasons, are very nervous though. Wish the police were more open about the case.
