I cannot see your point here PP. The officer seen in the police cam footage suggesting that Gabby take a shower was a poor example of what to tell a distraught woman, out alone on a desert road.
In other situations, I can see how it might be looked at as a good, temporary solution since hot water has the ability to calm someone down mentally.
[b]By the way, the officer had no business disclosing that his wife suffered from anxiety issues & was taking medication to control it.
If I were his wife - I would be so livid knowing my husband disclosed this private matter w/a complete stranger.

I think a young, beautiful girl 100% on her own going to take a shower in a public place could be dangerous because there could be some random sicko in the area who sees that she is traveling alone and potentially follow her.
The area is obviously dangerous as two women were shot in the area the next day for instance.[/quote]

#1  We don't know that is really the situtation with the officer's wife.   Cops lie all the time.   He may have just been told that is a good thing to suggest to people and it helps to "personalize it" to diffuse a stressful situation.

#2   Even if that is the situation with his wife, surely the cop had no idea this would turn into a national news story.   In his mind this was just a conversation between him and a random hiker that he would never see again.[/quote]
