BRANDY MEMARIAN, a friend of Rebecca's doesn't believe she killed herself.
'BRANDY MEMARIAN, FRIEND OF REBECCA ZAHAU`S: Well, it`s just shocking. And I agree with you guys. I mean, I just feel like so much of this could be put easily to rest if they just reopened it and answered some of these questions that we all have.
And it just seems -- I mean, that`s the most frustrating part. You don`t know who you`re fighting against, because the people that you`re supposed to trust, they`re not doing what easily seems, you know, within their ability to do.
PINSKY: And Rebecca (sic), we`re looking at pictures of you -- Brandy and Rebecca right now -- that`s the two of them. And both of you seem like you`re very good friends. I understand that you are, in fact.
And Rebecca seems like a very happy person. Do you know of any evidence of anything in her life that would help us understand what might have happened here?
MEMARIAN: No. I mean, I don`t think any of life`s circumstances that she encountered, even this tragedy of Max, would have pushed her over the edge to do something like this.
You know, I ask myself that same question. You know, with the hardships that I`ve encountered, could I take my life? You know? But even if I were to do something like that, I would never do it like that, and
she would never do something like this.
She was a fighter. You know, she had a positive outlook on life. She always felt like there was light at the end of the tunnel.
PINSKY: And Brandy, let me ask you this. I`m going to interrupt you. Did she know how to work with ropes?
Did she know how to tie ropes in fancy knots and things?
MEMARIAN:
No.
PINSKY: No. Yes.
MEMARIAN:
No, she didn`t.
PINSKY: Thank you, Brandy. '
