Anyone else following this case? SO sad! And from what I have read, preventable. Article below summarizes:

OP again: my "preventable" comment was not meant in any way to blame the victim, just wish she had never come across this creeper. |
| I don’t blame her, but something is really off about the last day of her life. |
| Do they know how she knew this guy? Was it drugs? |
This is what I'm trying to figure out. I haven't read anything that mentions how she knew him but I saw an interview with a friend (or roommate) that said something like "whatever it is, we just want your to come back"...something that led me to think the friend knew she might be doing drugs or random sex or something of that nature.. |
That’s what I’m wondering. |
there's a weird gap in the time that she was last heard from and the time she was reported 'missing' (or that no one had heard from her). not sure if this is standard or not. |
| Apparently in April the kidnapper had a contractor come to his house to bid building a soundproof room with hooks on the wall. He didn’t do it because he was weirded out... he should have called the freaking cops! |
not to derail this thread or make light of this tragic situation, but did this remind anyone of the how I met your mother episode where Ted and Tony (Stella's ex) go to see some 'friend' of Tony's about building a room? I read the article regarding this and felt like I'd heard this before, then remembered this episode! |
| i am all about women's empowerment stuff but why do women do these questionable things? |
| She had a profile on a sugar baby type website, and was part of a private Facebook group about sugar dating... I wonder if she connected with him through one of those sites |
This. She certainly did nothing to deserve what happened to her but going from an airport to a park via Lyft in order to meet up with that guy at 3am makes no sense. If they were romantically involved she would have just been dropped off at his house. What a nightmare for her family. |

Parents really need to warn their kids about “potential” bad people.
“Everyone is really good inside.” is a very bad way to raise children. No clue how she was raised, but I see too many parents raising their children to trust everyone. Maybe he somehow got her to feel sorry for him. No clue why she thought he was trustworthy, and it was safe to be alone with him. So many girls are getting raped and taken advantage of. I think most simply don’t tell their parents because it’s too painful. Of course it’s easier to scream it’s HIS fault, which is ABSOLUTELY true, but your daughter is still the one who gets raped. No parent wants that!!!!! Tell your daughter not to allow herself to ever be alone and secluded with a boy/man that you don’t know. Girls are growing up very naive with regard to their personal safety. This has to change. They’re extremely vulnerable during their teens and 20’s, wanting to feel like an adult. Show them how *you* take precautions to protect your safety, and don’t drink and drive. Tell them NOT to drink at all with guys who may turn evil, and take advantage of them. |
| ^^ I completely agree with you (17:04) and I'd add that (to me at least) this has nothing to do with gender. I don't want my daughter OR my son hanging out with random people at 3 AM in a secluded area, telling personal information to people they don't know, etc. |
Agreed. Thank you! - 17:04 |
