I do not believe there was anyone in that Jeep other than Crystal and the XGF. That is just my opinion.
And one other thing............young people sometimes tend to exaggerate what they saw or even what they thought they saw. Have you ever seen anything happen and then suddenly wonder just exactly what you did see? The hooded figure could have been a female very easily, IMO. I am not trying to disparage a witness, but eyewitnesses are notoriously wrong about some details. Again, IMO.
I agree. I was reading 2 news articles this morning, both about a stabbing victim. The first article stated that a physician at a clinic in Charlottesville, VA, had called 911 because he had been stabbed in two different places (on his body), in the parking lot outside of the clinic where he worked. The attack occurred about 7:30 p.m., as he walked toward his vehicle in the open parking area of the clinic. He described the perp. as a black man, who asked if he was Dr. [whosehisname]. When the Dr. acknowledged that he was, the perp then told him that he needed to write more prescriptions for painkillers. He then stabbed the doctor once in the stomach and once in the shoulder. The doctor then reached into his own pocket and pressed the alarm button on his car key fob. When the alarm sounded, the perp ran off, disappearing around the corner of the clinic building where the doctor could no longer see him.
The doctor then went back into the clinic, which was closed for the night, and called 911. He described the perp as a black man who was wearing a black mask, and a hoodie over his head which was pulled around his face so that he was "incognito." The Dr. was taken to the hospital, treated and released (the wounds were non-life-threatening).
In the second article, the updated version, the doctor had recanted and confessed that he had stabbed himself to garner sympathy from his employer and co-workers because he apparently was in danger of being fired. He said that if he were fired, there was a huge (head-hunter fee?) amount that he would have to pay to the employer because he failed to fulfill his contract.
[Now, how do you think the Dr. came up with this description of the perp: "a black man who was wearing a black mask, and a hoodie over his head that was pulled around his face "? Sound familiar?]
The "bushy-haired stanger" has now been replaced by the "masked hoodie-headed perp."
