Yes, via their cellular network, probably.If the power is out, the local internet is probably out, too. Yet people are posting on SM?

Here is a plausible theory that I'm considering.
It is dark and both JR and SK are in shoulder deep water. And in water, JR touches SK in an inappropriate manner.
SK refuses his unwanted touching and JR gets angry where he suddenly holds SK's head underwater.
And in his drunken state, JR thinks he held SK's head underwater for less than a minute, but it is more than several minutes.
Then to his horror, he panics after discovering that SK is not breathing and possibly deceased.
I'm not saying that this is what actually happened, only that this is a possibility to consider.
Any thoughts about this?
I don't know how good the cellular network in the DR is, usually using cellular network abroad the phone loses power quicker and then, there is an outage so charging is harder. Well, there probably is an easy explanation to all of it.Yes, via their cellular network, probably.
BBMWhat is concerning is that JR takes to a great effort to tell about saving SK from the waves. I wonder if it serves to explain some inconsistencies should she be found.
There is a possibility that the waves were tall and JR decided to save himself, and left her in the sea, but in this case, usually the stress of feeling/seeing someone drown would help sober up. (There are many articles to that effect.)
So it would be strange if he just walked away or slept on the beach without calling anyone. It is not totally impossible that he blacked out when drunk and doesn't remember anything at all, but then, why make up the whole story?
While stress can sometimes lead to an increased perception of intoxication, studies suggest that stress can also increase the rate of alcohol elimination, potentially leading to a "sobering effect" as BAC begins to fall

Just my speculation:Thanks for linking this. ^^^^
Only my .02 : I feel that to be completely cooperating JR should tell LE what the conversation was when he got back to the room.
Maybe the roommate could help, and say what the convo. was ?
Just asking.
From the above link :
".... Officials in the Dominican Republic said they have not ruled out foul play in the disappearance of University of Pittsburgh student Sudiksha Konanki, as the search for her enters its seventh day.
The attorney general and police in the Caribbean nation said in a release that the search for the missing co-ed now extends “beyond an accidental event” and “examines all variables. ..."
Wonder what made LE change their mind ?
Imo.
I also think that he may have just saved himself and is feeling ashamed of that.What is concerning is that JR takes to a great effort to tell about saving SK from the waves. I wonder if it serves to explain some inconsistencies should she be found.

Yes, I agree.If they were drinking vodka/mixed drinks and shots of tequila (as he stated during his interrogation), and then both vomiting at the hotel in front of friends (just reported by Daily Mail), then that’s a pretty volatile combo… one would think?
She enters with her friends and then is on the left side of the video vomiting and then rejoining her friends.Are we sure its SK? Plus man standing beside is the friend in Hawaiwan shirt
If the water pushed them further away from where their items were set up on the beach, and last he saw her she was walking in the water towards where their items were, then WHERE was he walking to if not going back to get his things like shirt & shoes? He didn’t have them when he returned back to hotel…Does everyone believe his story about him rescuing her from a big wave, and last seeing her walking knee deep in the water?
I would thing they would have been on cameraI posted this on the DM also ...
for all we know some other person offered to help her and walk her back to the hotel. how good is the cell service? has every room in the hotel been searched? the roofs? the basement areas? storage? have dogs been brought in?
IMO there's some credence here. It would appear he took his shoes and shirt off and she took her cover-up off, intending to get into the water.If the water pushed them further away from where their items were set up on the beach, and last he saw her she was walking in the water towards where their items were, then WHERE was he walking to if not going back to get his things like shirt & shoes?

Agree, his previous experience being a lifeguard means he was trained to save lives. Although the ocean is very different from a pool in Iowa.I also think that he may have just saved himself and is feeling ashamed of that.
