If you look at some of the things you highlighted, it could bring up some new questions, or potential scenarios...it occurred to me that if JLM had bought those beers earlier....and was only closing a tab...well why did he leave Tempo with an open tab? Was he planning to go back to Tempo? Or had he forgotten it was open when he left? Did he leave Tempo to go meet up with someone at the downtown mall? Maybe he wasnt intending to bring Hannah in Tempo to drink at all, but he had to go close out his tab.
Could it be possible that he left Tempo to go meet Hannah? Could they have been in contact via some snap chat thing, rather then through texts?
Just thinking threw this. But if JLM had an open tab when he left tempo....why? How does that change potential scenarios.
If he didn't buy her a drink, how did he drug her?
Could she have gone more off the beaten path and smoked weed with him?
Maybe other people where with them, but don't want to come forward because it involves an illegal substance.
If he closed the tab, at around 1:10....and Hannah was never inside, but they were both spotted outside at 1:40....what were they doing for 30 min?
There are a number of versions of the same story. I thought that he bought 2 beers when he returned at 1:10. There was discussion of whether anyone saw JM drinking the beers and no one had. Tempo did not say, whoa, he only paid for earlier drinks which would end any more talk of whether Tempo provided Hannah with anything, directly or indirectly. They just say that none of the employees saw Hannah inside Tempo, and no one knows whether JM drank those beers or what. They don't remember.
My guess is that JM was able to sneak Hannah inside through some side door, and that there was a side area that was not easily viewable from bar or restaurant. I think Hannah might have sent her text if it was indeed written at 1:06am which is the last I read about the time of that, telling friends she was at a location she was not, with the intention that she would be dropped off there very soon. She also probably used the restroom, that may have been close to the side door Wish someone could give us a layout of Tempo including restroom, off areas, side door possibilities. She had been out for a while and had been drinking right before leaiving the Corner so a pit stop was probably needed. Thirsty, so she drank the beer, then maybe JM used the restrooms, and then if that beer were spiked, she start feeling it quickly. Maybe a concerned, sit down a moment here, to clear your head, and then as she became more disoriented, getting her cell phone, dunking it in water and then pitching it would work just fine, maybe dousing it with some beer if left over. that would kill it, and it may have been out of battery by then anyways. Then, they had to go, so out the side door, from which the checker says she did see JM emerge. How she noticed Hannah at first, no telling, whether she saw Hannah come ou the same door or not Lots of people milling out there by then. And Hannah is having trouble walking, maybe even standing at that time. I could see this Waiting a few minutes while JM ordered the beer, paid the tab, snuck beer to where she is. Maybe texting or playing with pnone for that time. Drinking the beer, having some chitchat, then using the restroom, Waits while Jm does the same, then is feeling dizzy, woozy. Sit and rest another few minutes. Oh yes, 35 minutes could so go by. i think Hannah was getting very disoriented in the last 10-15 minutes of that time.
