I'd like to revisit the keys, if we could go back to our corners for a moment or two.
I wonder if any of her friends who were there that night can attest to the fact that she had her keys, or had in fact lost her keys.
If she did lose something, was it just her house key, or both?
Certainly if she had lost her house key and had no way to get into the house, she would have mentioned that to her girlfriend(s). And since the text (according to the interview that JM did with UptownDallasGirl) saying that she lost her key was at 3:36, this coincides with the time she were leaving the apartment.
Questions to answer:
Did she in fact lose her house key?
Did she also lose her car key?
If she did lose the house key and hadn't heard from her bf, how was she planning to get in (obviously he didn't respond to her text since he said his phone was dead... and come to think of it, if it was normal for them to go days without speaking, then why would she count on him even leaving the door unlocked?)
If she also lost her car key, why did she go to the garage? If her girlfriend(s) knew she was going to the garage and she did not have a car key, I would think that they would have said that from the beginning because that would have led everyone to believe that she either HAD to get a ride with EA, another person, or walk back to the apartment. Certainly this would have been reported early on.
If she did not lose her key after all, then WHY did she text at 3:58 that she had? Like I said, if it is normal for the bf to not speak to her for days, I would think that she wouldn't bother trying to incite anything from him. I used to think that maybe she was just trying to get his attention, but after hearing JM say that this was common, I have changed my mind.
I am intrigued that one text was sent as she left the apartment and the next text (the last before the phone was either shut off or lost power) was as she would have approached a vehicle int he garage.
