Well, there is that. However, whatever his reasons, he could not think it was a good thing that she went missing. Even then, I does not mean . . . what you all are trying to say.
I have known someone who was a drug dealer/supplier/whatever. He was not just a delivery person, imo. I'm thinking if a murder when down -- whether he (this person I know) did it or not, he would start hiding things and shutting things down, at least temporarily. I might like to think in this instance that that person is a killer, but maybe . . . evidence.
I think we can usually trust drug dealers to act like drug dealers. Not all of them commit murder, and I do think that Christina has been murdered. In any case, some people certainly seem to think that the person you would love to see TOS lifted so you could sleuth, is believeable.
Personally, I don't trust anyone much. I am a vigilant little bee.
Whatever the case, and no one can say for certain until the evidence is heard or at least more revealed. That is my sticking point.
As for the police, they are sometimes incompetent, lazy, and dishonest -- usually not all at once. Which door to you want to choose? Because I don't think many people believe EA is innocent and just totally framed.
