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

[kkdj]

And if any one of her friends could offer a single insight into why she would have gone to North Salt Lake, who she would have gone to North Salt Lake to see, or what she might have gone to North Salt Lake to do after 1 am in the morning after having just flown home, then I would be putting a lot more weight behind their words re: her going off being "unlike her."

The fact that none of her friends have any clue why she went there tells me that they may not know ML as well as they think they do, at least with regard to certain aspects of her life.

This doesn't move the needle for me at all.

What will move the needle for me is a change in LE's language and/or posture.

I still think she's voluntarily missing.

JMO.

If she did go voluntarily missing then I don't think she meant to this long. She had her cat, work, school, friends, a wedding to attend to, etc. It sounds like she had an active life. Perhaps she was going to have a little fun that night and she got in over her head. idk. I don't get the feel of her leaving voluntarily but she was on a mission for something imo and something she wasn't expecting happened. But I hope you're right! jmo

Did anything happen at the funeral to upset her? (I mean other than her grandmother passing)
Were there any family feuds?
Did anyone threaten her?
Banging my head against a wall here trying to see what sticks even a little bit.

 

[GordianKnot]

I do too.

If they had an explanation for that behavior, then I’d give their statements a hell of a lot more weight.

It appears that this was a strange thing for her to have done, and it may be part of an overall pattern here.

Something bad still could have happened, but I don’t think it’s as likely as this being something else entirely.

Agreed on all points.

It isn't outside the realm of possibility that she went to her NSL destination voluntarily and something bad happened either intentionally or accidentally to her.

It's just not the likeliest scenario, given what we're seeing and not seeing from LE right now.

JMO.

As far as her voluntarily missing, I also do not think she would choose this time to do this to her loved ones, right after her grandmother passed.

There’s no way of knowing.

People commit suicide, and leave their loved ones behind.

People have mental episodes, and don’t even think about the pain their actions cause.

Because she may be voluntarily missing, does not mean that she’s a bad person.

We can’t say what another person would or wouldn’t do, because we aren’t inside their head.

 

[kkdj]

Hypothetically, what if she went there for drugs and OD'd and the dealer got scared and took her somewhere?
Not saying she was doing drugs or anything. Just a possible scenario to throw out there.

One of her friends who did the press conference said on her social media where she was dropped off.

Do we have a transcript of the pc? Sorry to ask, but just catching up.

Oh, why read a transcript when you can get the full effect of the pc with the New Age Bull Fight music playing in the foreground, I mean, background:

When was the PC? Where did she say it was and is it more specific than what we already know?

PC was today.
Friend states in the pc that LE has not released the location where she was dropped off.

JMO.

PC was today.
Friend specifically states in the pc that they don't know the address ML got dropped off at, LE has not shared that info with them.

JMO.

I think it was a hint to go to a personal FB page and see it.

Already answered.

 

[Jethro4WS]

Thank you.
What is the story Kennedy is speaking of about a possible kidnapped female in Utah or CO?

Already resolved a few hours ago, on this thread. Nothing to do with this. Female found. Man arrested.

 

[MassGuy]

Thank you.

It was one big nothingburger, atleast in relation to this case.

It has been resolved, and is not connected.

Interesting clues to what LE might be doing in the investigation, from former unified police chief in Holladay UT. Article from KUTV. Retired chief: Given known facts, missing student investigation should be "scorched earth"

Not her friend, just a supersleuth....

Rules - Etiquette & Information

Since you’re new, some of this might be of interest to you. Like the part that says that Facebook pages of friends are off limits. And that no screenshots of FB pages are allowed.

By the way—I don’t know where it’s documented, but Reddit is totally off limits, too, for discussion here.

That wasn't reported by media or law enforcement. I figure a couple dozen posts will disappear.

Where is MacKenzie Lueck? Here’s what we know about the disappearance of the 23-year-old University of Utah student.
"The driver dropped her off in North Salt Lake."
You are correct. It does not say a park.
And ETA....I never personally thought it was a park at 1:00 a.m. anyway. lol.

 

[BrownRice]

Wonder why LE won’t release more info regarding the Lyft ride and driver. That has to be key. If she was in fact dropped off at a park at 130-200 a.m., I’d assume most drivers would say wth are you doing, this doesn’t appear to be safe. Or would they just drop her off and move to the next ride?

I wondered the same thing. Of course we have no evidence she was dropped off at a park and that would actually surprise me unless someone was waiting in the parking lot for her. Of course, if it does turn out to be a park, what kind? A beautiful park with grass and benches? An industrial park? A trailer park?
What I do think is that she had an obvious destination and a goal. I believe it has to do with meeting another person too. Now, what was that for and what happened once she met that person?
You're right, the lyft driver is the key. What else did he notice of the surroundings when he dropped her off?
