It's hard to say why 20 year olds do a lot of the things they do. I believe fully that she didn't leave on purpose, I think she may have been looking for a place to smoke. I'm not sure I think I read somewhere that she was in the smoking area at some point, but maybe she just assumed at some point that she could slip out and burn one and then get back in with the ticket stub.
As for the drugs, like I said who knows what is going on in the mind of a 20 year old when drugs or alcohol is involved. Maybe it was a drug she had never taken before, or this time its effects were different on her than before... who knows? I know when I was younger and partying and hitting up concerts and such I wasn't shy about trying stuff (or usually in my case drinking way in excess).
I do believe though that this was a crime of opportunity, that an inebriated young lady was in the wrong place at the wrong time. It feels like a stretch for someone to have slipped her a mickey and then stalked her in the unlikely chance that she would wander outside the arena, and then bide his time while she approached numerous people waiting for her to hopefully end up alone. Not impossible, but just feels a bit unlikely.
And again, I believe that if she was on drugs, then someone lied to her about what they were, they were mixed with something, a number of things. Of course it's always possible that something intended to have another effect didn't work for her and she had a bad trip or something like that. But I don't believe she would have willingly wanted to be as disoriented as she became if we go by the accounts of the way she acted outside.
I don't know if a smoking area would be outside or if she would have needed to leave to smoke. Pretty much every concert I've been to, people smoked, drank, etc. Unless the venue had rules against it and they were strictly enforced, then I don't believe she would have just left so she could smoke.
Where did you see that people were waiting for her? I'm not trying to be offensive but I believe that hasn't been confirmed... people have speculated that she may have gone outside to meet friends but as far as I know that's a theory, not a fact.
If someone she knew, even in passing, spiked her drink on purpose then they'd probably know if nobody was waiting outside. Even a stranger who had befriended her group of friends with bad intentions, if that came up in conversation, along the lines of, are you waiting for more friends, where are they, stuff like that.
I agree it doesn't seem likely that someone would take the chance, but here the key is the group of friends she was already with, someone stalking her couldn't know that she was going to wander away from them (even for going to the bathroom, for all the stalker knew they could have gone in pairs if they did at all).
However, I don't believe a stalker would have known someone was waiting for her outside, especially as she was disoriented enough to wander outside despite the warnings that if you went out you couldn't go back in. A stalker may have guessed that was due to her being disoriented and followed.
I still believe someone who was outside the venue knows more than they're telling but I think we should consider all angles. :twocents:
I find it hard to believe he just stopped raping women ... praying for justice for Morgan!
