Found Deceased UT - MacKenzie "Kenzie" Lueck, 23, Salt Lake City, 17 June 2019 #3

[DenaliSpirit]

Well one thing I found interesting last night is that someone named CG deleted their Instagram account recently

Can you elaborate on that? Not who CG is, but about their deleting their account.

Can somebody please send me a mod address? I am on my phone at the pool in the blinding sun and having trouble figuring it out.

Must be rough for ya out there!

I thought so too, but I kept scrolling and there was another JJ comment further down that was pretty specific. If true, new info to me.

ETA: Sorry. I see that this has already been stated multiple times. Can't keep up with y'all today!

Companies (Social Media, Telephone) should be compelled to change terms of service to help out in missing persons/abduction cases. They should allow a warrantless 3rd party family member of choice to have all records agreed to when service is provided. This could stop a lot of this wait a week for warrants slowdown.

This. I have teenage kids and young 20's coworkers. None of them know what a payphone is or would try to use one if their phone was dead. Not saying it's impossible, but highly unlikely IMO.

I'm in my mid 20s and I would be very shocked if someone around my age didn't know what a payphone was. They were still used a lot when we were young. But a lot of younger people don't carry money and don't tend to memorise phone numbers, so you might wait to charge your phone for that reason.

however i should add that ML does not follow anyone by the name of CG on instagram

ML is friends with them on facebook though

Is Venmo an instant payment? Can it be set up for automatic payments? I noticed another person making payments to CG at the same dates and times.

Yes and yes. It’s probably for the rent on their apartment.

Here is a podcast I found on the Find Mackenzie page. Her friend KS asked them to do it and they got info from KS. Haven't listened to it yet

Good and new information here thanks for posting.

I really think if Venmo had any helpful information here it would be payments made to her, not her making payments.

I think her PayPal account will hold the answers for what you’re asking.

Guys this Venmo account...

You pick the icons used. Just because a laptop was used DOES NOT mean it was for internet service.

It is quite common to use Venmo to buy and sell drugs.

Which was not obtained in the DR

Agree and, while this pickup may be memorable because of time of day and drop off location, to the driver it was probably just another job. Of course, we're honing in on this particular job but who knows how many other passengers he/she drove that day, before and after Kenzie. By the time the Lyft driver was questioned, it had been something like 4 days later? He/she could have easily had 50 pickups and dropoffs since that night. Sure, the driver remembers Kenzie, that he/she picked her up at the airport and drove her to a park, but recalling what make and model the vehicle waiting on her was ... wow ... *rubs my head* ... not sure I would be able to either, especially, if as reported by the LE, the Lyft driver did not find Kenzie to be in distress. Perhaps if she was acting anxious or took a strange call while in route the driver would have honed in on such details but otherwise ...

Exactly. It's like a retail clerk or a waitress or any job where you serve customers- you serve the people and help them achieve what it is they need- in this case, a ride to her destination of choice. It would have to be something that really stood out, or if she was nervous or hesitant to get out of the vehicle, that would make a driver pause and perhaps ask if everything was ok. It sounds like the driver did what they always do- drop them off at their destination, and left- nothing stood out to them that was obvious.

If she knew the person she was meeting, to which I think we can gather she knew them in some capacity before meeting them there, she probably didn't set off any red flags. Drivers have dropped people off in all sorts of locations- you aren't there to question your customer, just drive them to their destination and leave after they get out of your car, to which you log out of that job, before taking another one.

Oh no, I’m behind, they changed the time of the presser? I could be reading more into this, but generally that’s not a great sign, unless they are just absolutely swamped...

I’m probably reading too much into this.

I’m assuming this presser is to release a sketch and vehicle description.

Tuesday afternoon investigators hope to release more information on the case, including a video of Mackenzie Lueck while she was at the airport the morning of June 17th.

We are allowed to post the victim's public facebook page only, is my understanding. ......I can be wrong....... I sure would like to know if WS is now allowing us to post all these other SM sites now ?????

Maybe take this up with a Mod instead of arguing back and forth on this?

Guys this Venmo account...

Yes, however I have zero firsthand information to support that Kenzie used drugs. She also paid this commonly talked about person one time using the word "internet" instead of emojis. I am assuming her steady payments to him are to pay for internet/wifi.

Good and new information here thanks for posting.

I haven't had time to listen to it just yet. Can you tell us what's mentioned that is new? I'd sure appreciate it.

Look again.

Interesting comment from a JJ on this news video from earlier today. ETA, for new people, we are not allowed to discuss the comment, we can only bring attention to it.

Well, some of those people are pretty awful. I feel I need to rinse Facebook off now...

 

[poppydarling]

Yes and yes. It’s probably for the rent on their apartment.

Just a thought, I’m weary of the CG person having their name out there and now attached because it’s likely this is a roommate/landlord and this was for internet or rent.

If this is a roommate, it seems unlikely to be anyone we are talking about being at the park. She would have just taken the Lyft home if this person also lives there. Much simpler.

If drug use is even a thing we are talking for ML (which note is consistently denied by anyone who knew her @yellowmoose confirms this many times in the last three threads) she would more likely hid the exchange. Seems like all these fit with friends and splitting costs for things.

I just don’t want CG to be an innocent bystander who is now being targeted because of lack of other Information. I’ll eat my words if they are involved, don’t worry.

MOO
