I also am having a hard time understanding the trafficking angle. Traffickers are horrific monsters who will prey on any vulnerable person but she was just so clearly not a vulnerable person. US citizen, involved family, well educated, older than an expected target, on a cruise ship where she would be noticed missing relatively quickly. It seems so extremely risky and like there are many other avenues available that would be far less risky.

I guess on some level I also just hope that’s not the case because it’s such an alarming and terrible potential outcome.

There is a table next to the rail. You step up to vomit to make sure the vomit goes overboard. She was on the 8th deck of the ship AND the cruise ship is traveling around 20 knots so that means there is wind.

As to why Amy didn’t just escape, no one was there looking for her. Flyers weren’t posted until weeks later. Law enforcement is often corrupt. She was likely completely traumatized for the first few weeks. She may have made attempts to escape but they failed and the consequences were severe.


More likely he is gay and knows the family is homophobic. He knows they didn't accept that she was a lesbian. Can you imagine if every time a person couldn't be found after an hour on a cruise ship that they would prevent 2,000 people off the cruise ship at a port who would miss excursions? If Yellow were a trafficker he would have focused on the 18 year old who is alone with a friend early in the morning who looks much more feminine and can be much more easily manipulated, not as used to drinking, etc.

No, they weren't. The family said they had no idea how many shoes she brought. They knew she had tennis shoes, the Birks, and a dressier pair, but weren't sure what else.


The family is intentionally vague on the shoes. Anyone who has been on a cruise knows how incredibly small the rooms are. The room they were in was most likely less than 200 square feet. And they crammed four people in there. The documentary wants views so was intentionally vague about the shoes. They have her suitcases and must have had to pack up her new apartment. A logical step would be to account for all her shoes since it is such a big clue. If they weren't sure they could have asked all her friends if they knew if any shoes were missing.

Logically it doesn't make sense that she has a pair of extremely comfortable pair of Birkenstocks and is not going to wear them out of the cabin. Instead she is going go into a dark cabin where three people are sleeping and look around for another pair of shoes. When the pull out bed that she and Brad slept on was out there is barely any space to move around. It is absolutely not logical she wouldn't have woken anyone else up. The door being ajar doesn't mean anything because it can slightly shift a few inches open or closed when the boat rocks.

Obviously the documentary wants to push the trafficking story for views but if they had a photo of the pull out bed it would be easier to see how cramped it would have been. The most logical answer is she fell or jumped.

How many pairs of shoes do you think Young, not wealthy (non lipstick) lesbian brought on her trip in the tiny cabin with her parents? Come on.



Definitely something else to wear by the pool, like flip flops. There is a lack of clarity about the shoes, which means it's not definitive either way.

I think she’d have flip flops that could get wet—for poolside.

Watch the parts where the dad is talking about seeing her. Something just doesn’t ring true, even without the details about the timeline.

I think she left the ship looking for drugs. I think Alister and/or the ship’s waitstaff were connected to trafficking. They targeted her, lured her and she followed them. The family was too dumb to stay on the ship rather than stay at the port and search for her. I would have never left.

I also think it’s possible she was looking to score in Curaçao, and Alister was the hookup. I think people assume scoring drugs in the Caribbean is like scoring drugs in the US, but that’s definitely a naive assumption. These countries are DANGEROUS if you step off the beaten path.

My father would have told me to get the hell to bed at 5:30 am in the tiny room we all shared. If he never actually saw her at 5:30, then that would leave a larger window of time between her being with the brother to when the dad wakes up at 6am and doesn’t see her. That would make his panicked state more understandable. What time did Brad Bradley say he left the patio and went to bed?

This is what doesn’t make sense to me, either.

April in the Caribbean, it would have still been dark at 5:30am. How did he even see anything, let alone the ability to make out legs on the balcony?

I’m not sure and can’t find the time the ship docked in Curaçao, but according to Wikipedia, by 7:50am, a majority of passengers had already disembarked, so by 5:30am, they were likely close to entering the harbor in Curaçao. Wouldn’t they be up and moving, getting ready for breakfast before their excursion? I’m a seasoned cruiser and if I knew we were docking around 7am, and knew I had an excursion, if I woke at 5:30am, I’d be staying awake and getting ready for the day.

Something about this timeline doesn’t sit right with me.

1) Sightings. Beyond credible. Above all the fbi forensic analysis of the sex worker site photos.

2) She was 5 ft tall, the ship railing 4 1/2 ft tall. No way she fell, and there is zero evidence to indicate she was motivated to jump. She was having fun and excited about all the recent good developments in her life.

Very weird about the Amy website access from Barbados and Curacao on birthdays and holidays.



Apparently the FBI doesn't have jurisdiction to chase down those IP addresses, but I hope some hacker who watches the docuseries does!



It's such a weird coincidence, and a nice thought that she could be alive, but it's been so long now. What leverage could they have over her at this point? The only thing I can imagine is that she's a drug addict.


Her children? That would be a very strong motivation to stay down there.



But unless she actually became one of the drug dealers' girlfriend, hard to see how she'd be allowed to reproduce.


Even then, a drug dealer isn’t likely to want his gf/mother of his child turning tricks.

There are several places to grab coffee or to walk around to see the sun rise. She is 23 and they have no problem with her staying out until 3 am, but she is missing one hour from 6-7 and they want all hands on deck searching for her? Why were they so insistent about the boat not docking? And if they were so insistent why didn't they have one member of the family stationed on the dock watching people?"

This is the point that always bothered me. If he just saw her at 5:30, why was he so concerned just an hour later that he was begging the crew to delay disembarkation? I guess I would have assumed that she left the room for a myriad of reasons--dozing on a deck chair rather than share a tiny foldaway sofa with her brother, needed to be sick and was looking for a public bathroom, just out to enjoy the sunrise, meeting a new "friend" (male or female), eating breakfast, etc. I'm a helicopter mom and I don't think I would have even stirred out of bed, much less jumped up to conduct a full-scale search and report her missing.
Not sure what it means though, unless there was some sort of conversation or action before she went missing that had him concerned.


That did seem weird. I would have assumed breakfast or exercise, even if my kid slept in late usually.
