[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think they were out in the wilderness and they had a fight on a canyon or something. She fell, he ran. I doubt they find her. He will get away with it and no one will ever know if it was a mutual scrabbling moment of passion gone wrong or full on murder. Tragedy. [/quote]

I don’t know, seems unlikely that someone would take off cross country if they could just report it as an accidental fall at the time.  [/quote]

Devil's advocate here:
With the previous police incident in Moab, he knew he would be pinned as person-of-interest. In the case of an accidental fall, there is really no way to prove his innocence. He knows a prosecutor will go for a manslaughter/murder charge because of the publicity. He does the math and realizes he has no money to pay for a private attorney for a lengthy criminal trial. So he flees and doesn't talk to anyone but his lawyer.

Is it morally atrocious? Yes. But is it the best way to remain out of prison and no go in debt? Absolutely.

This is a basic, heartless cost-benefit analysis. [/quote]
