Thanks for that. Pantera, the Dead, Bob Marley, Bonnaroo...I have to think she smokes pot, at least infrequently. Maybe she went with some guys to get high. I would have done something like that when I was young, but I'm a guy. She may have kind of known someone she met at the concert or they may have seemed nice, at music gatherings you just assume people are cool unless they seem obviously creepy. Maybe someone offered her a beer with a date rape type drug in it.
This is interesting and plausible to me. I know people are concerned about folks inappropriately "judging" her and concluding that "a certain type of person" listens to a "certain tyoe of music." But to SOME DEGREE, isn't that true? (Im inlcuding myself here, so no tomaters)
That does not make her a
bad girl - not by any stretch.
Also, I've read descriptions of other venues on Metallica's tour route which had heavy LE presence etc; but not all venues are the same, right? It depends on the town, the town's budget, what is customary for that town, past incidents, many factors. Do we have anyone who went to this concert? or do we know if there was a heavy LE presence? (or security -- private or whatever?)
Also, there's no smoking (?) of anything in this arena except in the designated indoor areas?
And they sell alcohol? I wonder if they're particular about ID-ing hot girls who are not 21, but close to it? Would she have asked someone to buy her something - alcohol? Or could the bartender or someone else have slipped her something as you suggested? But if so, the mechanics and logisitcs of it all are still stumping me b/c of the call from outside, so she made it outside. That one drug take like 10 minutes to hit a person (or is it immediate?) (Or it depends on the person and the dose?)
But from what they're saying she was coherent enough to be make a call from outside and understand that she couldnt get back in.
Was this her first "big" concert in a huge crowded venue?
HLN is discussing the case now. The Mom just mentioned the friends who went to the concert (if I heard correctly) are Sarah, Maggie, and the roommate, Amy. (and I thought Amanda, Amy's sister went too?)
The dad just said that Morgan's brother recently graduated from Univ of Virginia IIRC (near C'ville?) and they're speculating that she felt she knew someone to call to "get a ride" as she told her friend when she called to say she was locked out of the concert.
But how can you say you'll "get a ride" just b/c you sorta kinda know some people who sorta kinda know your brother who already graduated recently (no longer enrolled) from a university sorta close to C'ville? (How close is it?)
Do you have those phone numbers handy? Why bank on that? that someone is even home or available on a Sat night? and that some aquaintance (not dear friend) would drop what they're doing and drive you with no previous notice b/c you'r some dude's sister (even tho you're hot) X miles from C'ville to JMU where her car was?
Why can I not buy that part?
MOO
