So either Taylan told LE he never was romantically involved or he told them they had sex in a bar bathroom. Okaaay. That's not even close. Geez.
Clear as mud!

In reality, though I don't agree with the drug mule theory knowingly or not. I do think this trip was more then just about photography. I think she met this community of people and individuals who made her feel really special in a way she hadn't for a very long time, not neccasarily in planning an affair sort of way, but just in a way that really pulled her there. I think photography was what initially connected her to these people, but I don't believe it was photography alone that compelled her to go on this trip.
And I don't think the friend was ever going. But I think she agreed to go along with it for sarai.
I don't think drug dealing was her pull either.
At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if the truth was actually that she accidentally went into the wrong sex bathroom at a bar and didn't think the wallpaper was very romantic looking.
I just realized... what if the New York Post is using Google translate?!? That would explain a LOT.
Maybe the friend was cool with going along with it, saying she backed out at the last minute until she realized she was being crucified by John Q. Public for abandoning her friend to die.
For the record- I don't blame the friend whatsoever- but I've seen comments on MSM articles that seem to indicate that some people do.

Easy to find on Facebook. Lives in Istanbul... Not sure if it's the right person so I hate to link, but google it as T***** Taylan and you'll get it. Notice what he 'likes'.
ETA --- not sure if this is the right guy. Seems young and has no photographs on there, like the ones we saw on IG.
ETA again ---- This name (no matter what you put first or last) seems about as common in Turkey as Joe Smith here in the US. We don't know if that's even his actual name either, but I'm going to keep looking.
I have been thinking about her husband a lot. One article mentions that Sarai (I assume meaning the family) had recently been through bankruptcy. There are two young boys in the family, and yet, family resources , after such money problems, are allocated for his wife to take this 3 week trip.
She only started posting her photos 4 months ago. Maybe Sept, Oct. How much could a young family save for such a trip insuch a short time? And yes, I know she chose inexpensive housing...but it is still money coming from family resources. And a bankruptcy not far behind them. And she has school expenses for herself as well. Her husband seems to have been very generous with Sarai.
I so hope that Sarai was not unfaithful to him, and it truly was about her art...because he seems to be a man who tried to give her all he could.

The article said they went through bankruptcy in 2005 - 8 years ago. It wasn't recent. They both had jobs.
Vatan (newspaper) wrote that his name was Tarkan on Sunday.

And I had thought it was a typo. So Taylan was the typo from the very beginning.

Thanks, Ami.
How was she homeschooling if she had a job? And, with her school bills, a trip like this still is a luxury to a family that has had problems before and has two sons to raise.
In any event, her husband seems to have put her needs and wants as a high priority. I hope he is left only with the best of memories.
If SS was up to something, he might have put her up to it. So he is feeling extra guilty. But we should rule that out. He also wired SS around $500. So she either overspent her money or ..... The trip must have cost at least $1500-2000.
