Np here. I can’t believe the criticism of the surviving roommate. I have had times when I have felt terrified that something bad was happening or had happened. My mind starts coming up with rationalizations. I think that might be what happened with the roommate. It is possible that she froze in fear when she saw him and was worried about the sounds she had heard. Then she went in her room and convinced herself that he was a hookup or friend/frat bro of Ethans. The sounds she heard were Kaylee playing with the dog and the couple arguing or talking loud. Everything she saw/heard was weird but not terribly alarming at all. Especially in a party house on a party night.
Keep in mind that the cops had been to the house before when all of the partiers claimed they had no idea who lived there. So, even if she had called and reported a stranger in the house, people talking upstairs…what would the cops had done? None of this was unusual at that house. |
It’s likely she hid in her room and passed out (as one does after drinking no judgement). It wouldn’t be totally weird to wake up the next morning thinking it was something you imagined … once you were sober. The poor kid. |
People are just trying to rationalize wtf happened. There’s nothing wrong with asking the question. |
This guy is so stupid, it’s offensive. |
I think he thinks he is brilliant, which is a common mistake PhD students make. They mistake perseverance for intelligence. This guy has a room temperature IQ at best. |
Drinking until you pass out is not a good thing anywhere. |
I think they went to bed, because it was 4 ish and got up later. Seeing random people in the house, ordering food, being up at thar timr probably was a normal night there.
Did the girls indicate what they did from the time of hearing all that and seeing a masked man? When did they see the carnage? The info coming out is vague and disconnected. |
But totally common with college students. They binge drink like crazy. |
This is a painfully concise description of many of us- cautious plodders. |
Even though they risk rape and death. Why? |
You don’t have to be black out drunk to find the whole thing confusing and just go to sleep. Also lots of kids do it and turn out to be fine, upstanding citizens. |
Because they're being told by society that it's okay. It's not. It's dangerous and should not be encouraged. |
No one knows how much they drank. Lots of alcohol obsessed kids are raped and traumatized. If your child has a propensity to get drunk or do drugs, it seems insane to send them off to college where you don’t have a clue what’s going on. |
The focus and obsessions on this thread and the corresponding one on Websleuths could not be more different. They are much better at staying on topic (likely due to moderation of the site.) |
Well, it’s a demographic obsessed with crime-solving. DCUM posters like the sound of their own written voice. |
