It's possible her parents gave her cash, or she had cash on her, or that even though overdrafted she may have been able to run something through on credit.
True...but I was referring to the price of a ticket...which I don't think she had on her....someone suggested she should have bought another ticket and that is why I had posted about her overdrawn card
My guess is she had a little cash....but not enough for another ticket which IF they had them were probably only high priced ones left
She kissed her friends goodbye, IMO, i think she was planning on leaving them for a spell, maybe going somewhere else or to meet up with someone else and not see her friends until much later on.
Maybe...but I also think that kids that age can be dramatic..and when "boozy" might just kiss/air kiss ...look a the huggy muggy pictures all over the internet , myspace etc....kids like to be dramatic and demonstrative JMO
If she was in a desperate drastic situation, i truly believe she would have called the police or at least her parents on a pay phone. Police could have been alerted by her talking to security. She tried to get back inside, yet we don't have reports of security seeing her in distress to the point that she wanted police called. So even though she tried to get back inside, IMO it doesn't seem to me that she was in danger just then.
I never thought she was in a "desperate drastic situation...and I don't think she thought she was (of course until it was too late)....I did put out the IDEA that IF she had money/working cell phone she might have done these things
I think her "danger" started later, in the vehicle with *advertiser censored*?
She did tell her friends in that call that she would find a ride home, i think it's possible she was either meeting someone or had people in mind she knew from around the area. A lot of these kids have tons of friends in the surrounding college area.
I agree..and on the MH forum they say that she knew a LOT of people around there....she may have accepted a ride to a friend's house...may have seen someone she "slightly" knew ....JMO
Remember that Morgan did also make a text to a young man (not involved LE cleared him) as well that night. I believe, if my memory serves me correctly it was after she talked to SS, however if anyone can find the link to post i would be greatful.
Yes...from everything I can find it seems that Morgan CALLED her friends at about 8:48 and then texted that guy 60 miles away...and that is the END of her phone records
What are you referring to when you say the friends must wish they made other arrangements? That they didn't join her outside when she was stuck out there?
On the FindMorgan site, her father has mentioned that various mistakes my different people made that night have all factored into the equation.
It's been mentioned before on here.
If she had no money as you believe, how could she pay for a cab to a nearby diner?
Again, I meant IF she had money on her debit card she could have chosen to pay for a cab
As for her parents, they feel horrible about this whole thing and my heart goes out to them. I'm sure her friends do as well.
IMO, i don't think the friends, or what people could have, should have done is the issue right now.
I never said it was...I was responding to the endless posts here that seem to "blame" the friends....my "logical" mind says that while the friends, the parents and mostly Morgan herself made very bad decisions on this ONE night, I don't see the point of trying to "blame" them....as I said before, no matter what they or she did, the ultimate blame is on who "took" her and what happened
In the instance Morgan chose to leave the arena as she was meeting someone or had other plans, possibly she was to meet up with the friends later (for example if she was meeting someone who had their own car). Then Morgan wouldn't need hers, yet her friends would to meet up with her later. (Using this scenario as an example).
Sorry I still don't think she had a real "scenario" like that...I don't think she had planned to miss the concert....my personal thought is she went out to buy drugs (not pretty but honest)...or booze (remember she was only 20)..and got stuck outside.
The question would be, in this scenario, who did Morgan meet up with? She went outside the arena, most likely with the intentions of leaving and not seeing her friends at least until much later on (kissing them goodbye).
After she does outside, she calls SS and tries to get back in. Maybe if she was to meet someone they didn't show or were late and she was going to try and get back in to kill time. She can't get back inside so maybe she meets someone, a friend, acquaintance, someone who is a friend of a friend, and possibly she goes off with them. That would be were things go bad.
Her friends were supposed to go to a party at JMU after the concert, perhaps Morgan had made plans to meet up with someone and not stay for the whole concert, and then meet her friends at JMU later... just to take a guess at things.
The only reason i can think for her to leave the concert (especially being she kissed her friends goodbye prior) is that she had plans to be somewhere else with someone else.
There we differ.....she wanted to see that concert....JMO she went outside to "get" something and come back in (using bad judgement, and probably a bit high...maybe she hit her chin and decided to go out and buy some painkillers or pills...maybe she wanted more to drink and went out for that?)
Whatever happened once she went outside wasn't planned, which would explain the call to SS.
The reason possibly behind why her friends didn't go out to her or get her her keys may be due to Morgan telling them she would either meet up with them later or find a ride back there on her own.
Agree....this is one reason I find blaming the friends frustrating...cause SHE called them, said she was outside, they gave suggestions to get in various entrances...and she said she would try OR find a ride
She did NOT call them back.....she did not answer her phone...so they assumed she had gotten a ride or maybe found her way back in and was in a different part of the crowded, loud arena
[COLOR="red"]
My point is that there was NO way for them to "throw the keys" to her since she did not call back and they were not able to call her to even make that arrangement !!!!!!!!!!!![/COLOR]
To say she would find a ride when her friends have her car, would mean she had someone(s) in mind around the area who she thought she could get a ride with.
Sorry...not necessarily....her friends may have assumed she would call someone as she apparently knew a lot of people in the area..however NO one could have predicted her phone troubles...I dont think she planned to do this, she wanted to see Metallica...she may have planned to call someone but then her phone didn't work....pay phone?? few and far between nowadays...and who knows friends numbers?? we store them in our phones
That also would be why her friends didn't attempt to get her her own keys or go outside to her, IMO. If she told them she was in danger, the situation would be different. At that point in time, Morgan didn't appear to be in danger. After the phone call she tried to get back in, and then Lord knows what happened..
