[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think there's anything particularly weird about her friends' behavior. They left her in a public place with a guy she seemed to be into, most likely to hook up. She likely insisted on being left. Was it a bad call in hindsight? Sure. But she's an adult likely saying she wants to stay behind with a guy she had her arm around earlier in the night. What exactly are they supposed to do? I'm sure it seemed safe because he was also a US tourist staying at the resort and they were leaving them out in the open/in public. Probably had the same aura of safety that a college campus does, where this exact same behavior happens every day (i.e., kids go out in groups to drink, eventually a couple or two peels off to hook up).

We don't actually know whether she was supposed to go with them on the day trip, but even assuming she was... they knew she was drunk & with a guy in the wee early hours of the morning (probably only a couple of hours before they went on the excursion). Would they really be shocked when she didn't show? Maybe they had gone home to sleep because of the excursion and when she chose to stay out they assumed she was blowing it off.

As soon as they got back and couldn't find her, they reported her missing.

It would be helpful to know why they had her phone. Did she leave it in her room because it was dead from the power outage or because she didn't want to get it wet/sandy at the beach? Not weird at all. Did she hand it off that evening? Weirder, but still not that weird if it had died.[/quote]
