[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]allegedly the young man she was with was a lifeguard which makes it seem more suspect[/quote]

No it really doesn’t. Drunk people in the water in the dark aren’t functioning like lifeguards. He is an American tourist about her age, in what way would he be involved in a trafficking ring operating through the DR? I empathize with her family but the simplest explanation is both were drunk- both swam- he was a stronger swimmer / not as drunk and made it back out of the ocean - she didn’t. He was disoriented and drunk and passed out and didn’t realize she hadn’t made it back out til he woke up after 9 am. Even then he could’ve assumed she did make it out and had already gone inside so he didn’t immediately alert anyone.  It’s still tragic but this need to assume someone did it vs a terrible accident occurred is bizarre to me. Not everything is a true crime story. [/quote]

I feel badly for the young man. He’s going to be scapegoated for this. [/quote]

Either her or him could be ANY of our young adult kids on spring break. I can only imagine the terrible places her parents’ minds are going in the absence of a body, but those of us uninvolved and simply watching from home don’t need to start with the outlandish conspiracies and narratives about him lacking ANY proof that anything besides a tragic accident happened to a girl he literally just met.

Cautionary tale for all of our children. [/quote]

Yes. I of course understand why the parents want all possibilities considered, even if it's almost certainly a case of poor judgment that could made by any young person on vacation.[/quote]
