That didn't occur to me either. It makes me wonder, what do we really know about these two people? Almost nothing. We know what they wanted us to see on social media. We know a few things their friends have said about them. But we really don't know the character of either of them. I've never done "dine and dash" because I don't believe in stealing. It's very clearly dishonest and wrong, for whatever reason. To the restaurant it's stealing. Gabby and Brian for some reason thought stealing was OK.... Apparently. I mean, that is what the facts according to the manager of the restaurant are. So what kind of people were Gabby and Brian really? We have assumed a LOT about both of them and this proves we really don't know much if anything about either one of them.

MOO

I would agree with the statement that we don't know much about either GP or BL. We can only go by what is on social media and the little bit of information given by a few of GP's friends and family. As for BL, we have very little information about him given by GP's friends, GP's family and BL's sister. In total it's not much at all. IMO.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I feel DUPED by all the characters, here. jmo

Aw cady, no. We just don't know or understand the whole story yet.

I can't see Gabby siding with the establishment because she was the one who walked back in and asked for a refund after they were paid outside. I'm guessing Brian is the one who paid and Gabby objected. When she asked for a refund, he backed her up.

Has to be a mistake. I'm pretty sure the witness did not mistake who came back in. We were told Brian came back in several times. Not Gabby.

Aw cady, no. We just don't know or understand the whole story yet.

I trust the FBI, but they are neither confirming nor denying, which is, of course, their way! jmo

 

[jjonez]

It may be illegal now, but some restaurants did do that in the 70's and 80's. As you can see, I'm an old bat! jmo

And they still do. Jmo

I am wondering if BL blamed her for paying and told her she better go back in and get the money back. To fix her mistake. MOO.

Yeah right, or maybe she wanted the money back

Brian did come back in with Gabby. But she was the one to ask for their money back. I'm going to trust the manager on this one. The witness did not seem believable to me with her statements about screaming. But I guess we'll get confirmation one way or the other at a later date.

This just does not seem like a logical explanation of events. Who gets caught walking out without paying and then pays outside, only to walk back in to ask for a refund? It can't be the entire story of what occurred. I will wait to hear what BE has to add, hoping that it will make more sense. I will hold my opinion until then.

Only sense I can make of it is if they paid cash outside, and then went inside and asked if they could have the cash back and put it on a card instead, and the place didn't want to deal with it any further.

The restaurant talked to the fbi. I don’t think they’d change their story now.

If the FBI hasn't released a statement detailing what happened at the MP, the restaurant workers or patrons/witnesses could say one thing to MSM and something else to the FBI. Some people like attention and it's more salacious to say BL made a scene. IMO.

That sounds more like it, IMO. I just don't see Gabby agreeing or leaving the place without paying. She had waited tables before, and for all she knew, the wait staff may have had to pay for the meal.

It seems weird to me that Gabby was crying in this scenario, though. It made sense when she was upset about Brian creating a scene. But now she's crying because they were forced to pay for a meal they presumably ordered? That just doesn't make sense. I don't doubt the manager's story, but it is possible somewhere along the line things have been mixed up. I agree the witness was embellishing, but this version of events doesn't quite add up.

Just my opinion. I took everything the witness said with a grain of salt and I'm treating this the same way. This is hearsay at this point. Notoriously unreliable. Awaiting confirmation, which we may never get.

Anyway, in the big picture, nobody ever reported seeing Gabby at Split Stream. It just seems highly likely that she was killed on the 27th. Which would put her time of death not long after the Merry Piglet incident. Did it play a part? Maybe not. Maybe it is just a crazy coincidence that there was some kind of an incident at a restaurant earlier that day.

And its a death sentence for your restaurant's online presence if the management said anything negative about GP. So I can fully understand why the restaurant doesn't want to talk about it. On the other hand, saying something negative about BL gets you celebrated and that person loved talking about it. In the end though, whatever actually happened won't change the outcome of what happened soon after.

 

[borndem]

Aw cady, no. We just don't know or understand the whole story yet.

And, IMO, we never will. I do wonder if Gabby lived long enuff to write about the incident. OTOH, she may have just wanted to forget it. IMO, she never got the opportunity to write about it...

Moo Merry Piglets. For whatever reason they were unhappy with how long it was taking for the server to actually come back to take their order and they ate the chips and salsa or bread that was brought out. Deciding this was taking to long they just left. The server charged them for the food and maybe Brian paid while GP was still arguing it and the two went back in to get the money that Brian handed over. Management said no so they went back outside but GP was so upset about paying for something she didn't think they owed because it was the restaurants fault they didn't take their order. She was so upset that Brian went back in to try again. And again when he came out without the refund he went in again at GP insistence. He was her knight and wanted to make her happy.

wow....just shows how eye witnesses can be SO WRONG. The girl that was interviewed on youtube.

The manager said they left without paying, though. They did not pay until the server went outside after them. Then they both returned inside and Gabby asked for their money back. I wish she had explained why they didn't pay.

Another thing I found interesting in the interview tonight was the description of the crime scene. The reporter said they had to walk through several creeks to get to the place where the body was left, and that it was further from the van than he expected.

I'm wondering if he killed her there or in another location. It doesn't look as if there is a good spot for a tent with all the rocks around, and I see no sign of a fire ring. Imo
