But here is mine --

I think this guy is making up that he saved her. I think they got hit by a wave, and he could only save himself. I don't think he intentionally didn't save her, but I think it all happened fast and he was wasted. His heroic story and then he simply passes out immediately isn't ringing true.

I think he is making up he saved her because he feels terribly, and because of the backlash and guilt and how he would be perceived for not saving her.

This guy strikes me as just a midwestern nice, a little bit of a doofus kind of kid. He seemed that way in videos. She was probably prettier than most girls he dated.

The fact he stayed around and cooperated and is still cooperating (though have no idea why certain questions are apparently off limits), says a lot. His Dad is there also trying to help.

None of this explains though why he didn't immediately tell the authorities.

Omg stop. He’s a perfectly normal white Midwest jock, who tend to date the skinny cute Midwest white girls. The gal was maybe exotic to him, but she isn’t some gorgeous gal and he was in some trance.

is that how " "perfectly" (no such thing) "normal" white Midwest" people describe people who are not " "perfectly" "normal" Midwest white girls"?

I think someone is desperately trying to keep suspicion on the boy. Someone familiar with DCUM.

Why? That is the question.

Because the family is important. And there’s no way their daughter could have made a series of bad choices (getting wasted, swimming in the ocean in the dark wasted, etc) that may have resulted in her demise. So it has to be someone else’s fault.

What do you mean the family is important?

IKR. Every so often a PP proclaims the "importance" of this family but none of us have ever heard of them and the PP never explains. Well, PP?

No one knows. Could it be something in "their" culture? Now welcome to US of A, where no one cares.

Is that for a fact she entered? Or is that based on what US's POI has said?

Didn't they already or wouldn't they have already done so? Did they actually "thoroughly" search the sands?

Exactly. If they wanted to go to sleep finally and she refused, what would you have them do? Dollars to donuts she also indicated she wanted to be alone with the guy.

That is NO excuse. After the Natalie Holloway situation, all girls know to NEVER leave their friend alone with a stranger. They should have stayed there with her.

Natalee Holloway disappeared before/around when these women were born. I highly doubt that situation influences college-aged kids nowadays in any way.

So they’re either naïve or az$holes or both?

DP. But the whole point of having a good reputation is that in times like this it counts.

This is not India. Doesn’t matter how “important” her family is.

Maybe it's like that saying- you can take the Indian out of India, but you can't take the Indian out of them (or something like that)? You can substitute another country, it could probably apply to other immigrants or countries as well. Maybe their Indian community wherever they may live cares?

Like loud obnoxious Americans when traveling abroad, or to the Dominican?

How do you know the guy will be judged harshly for the rest of his life yet? And that the "girlfriends will go about their lives as if nothing happened."? Do you actually think any of them can be going on as if nothing happened whether they played a role in her disappearance or death? Plenty happened, wouldn't you be affected even the slightest bit?

Their community has closed ranks around the friends. Nothing is being said about any of them, they're not speaking, and they left DR right away. No press conference crying about where is my best friend, please come home, we miss you and love you. NOTHING. The community has surrounded them and protecting them. They're perfectly fine with someone outside of their community taking the fall, very possibly for a crime he didn't commit, as long as it means no consequences for them and that their lives and continue on the previously set trajectory. The parents of the missing woman aren't even speaking out whatsoever against the friends.

I do not think this makes their community unique and it isn't intended to be racist in any way; this type of behavior is seen in many, MANY different tight knit communities.

Agree. The silence of the girls is weird and . Terrible, convoluted accident with many bad decisions, but not his fault.

And how do you know that exactly? Because if you do and could share with law enforcement (LE), that could help him get cleared and relieve him, his family and those around him of unnecessary stress and spotlight.

All involved are basically American, and both were excessively drunk and vomiting everywhere. So they both fit that description.

It's the most likely scenario.

They won't be treated harshly for it. This incident will not be the first thing everyone thinks of whenever their names are mentioned or first google hit for the rest of their lives.
