[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This story is so sad. I feel like girls especially have it drilled in their head to look out for their friends and yet this sort of thing happens. I wonder if she had known the boy for a few days so had an illusion of safety and so did her friends.   [/quote]

I really don't like blaming the friends. She clearly wanted to stay behind with him. It was after 5am and the friends wanted to go to bed at last. If she didn't want to go with them, please tell me specifically what they should have done.[/quote]

[b]My understanding is they took her phone so find my phone would show her in the hotel room. They were doing what she wanted.[/b] [/quote]

Is this understanding from anything official or simply the game of telephone (pun intended) being played in this thread? [/quote]

Nothing official. More likely she didn't want her phone to get wet or sandy, or it was dying.[/quote]

Right. We just know she asked her friends to take it, several possible reasons why.[/quote]

Young people these days do not normally make a move without their phone. Here is a quote about the phone situation from an article: "Her family says her belongings, including a phone and wallet, were left with her friends, although she’s known to always carry her phone." https://www.counton2.com/news/national-news/ap-what-to-know-about-us-student-sudiksha-konanki-who-vanished-in-dominican-republic-on-spring-break/ [/quote]

Yep, maybe the friends know why, she may have told them to take it back to room. Assumptions - bad signal phone wasn't working on beach, phone needed charging which one of her friends could do for her, as you said - would get sandy and wet.[/quote]
