Video shows the beach is some distance from the resort. She was alone and unprotected and visibly impaired.[/quote]

I don't see anywhere on there that kidnapping wealthy American tourists for sex trafficking is a thing.  The whole point of sex trafficking is taking people who no one is going to make a fuss over, or who maybe no one will even notice is missing.  An American college student is not that. [/quote]

This isn't an American tourist in fact the title should be missing college student from India[/quote]

She was a student at an American college. Living at an American college.
 Why are you people so invested in othering people??[/quote]

It’s because language and accuracy matter. She’s not American. That not casting aspersions, it’s the truth. [/quote]

She is Indian-American. Probably has done most of her schooling here and primary language is English. Will probably take citizenship as soon as it is offered, but it takes a while. GFY racist[/quote]

Being American or not isn’t an indicator of her value. Citizenship isn’t like gender identity. It is binary. You are or you aren’t. I don’t get why you are so hung up on this. She’s a smart, beautiful girl who is missing but she’s not American. Maybe you’re the racist assuming that Indian means lesser somehow?[/quote]
