Morgan Harrington Case: Separating Fact From Fiction From Facebook Part II

Charlottesville, VA– Just passing the month mark, the disappearance of Morgan Harrington from the John Paul Jones Area located on the UVA campus, leaves us with more questions than answers. Part II
The Faces of Her Facebook
Help Find Morgan Harrington was developed by a few concerned individuals interested in spreading the word about Morgan’s disappearance and boasts over 30,000 members. Not all posts are welcome.
In particular, a member by the name of Nelson Kane was recently banned for posting very detailed hypothesis scenarios that sparked a firestorm of interest in the self-appointed athlete scout. His posts were deleted at the request of Law Enforcement who admit tasking two officers with monitoring the web for such activity in Morgan’s case.
Additionally, Mr. Kane reached out to several individuals on facebook as well as the Harrington family’s findmorgan.com site in attempts to speak to the family directly and request an interview. The Harrington’s were made aware of the concern for such requests by sources close to the investigation.
He has recently changed his facebook drastically. 
Mr. Kane, a member of the family owning the longtime furniture store of the same name in Charlottesville is also a UVA alumni and season ticket holder. In addition to UVA, Kane also claims to have attended Virginia Tech on many of his many social networking profiles. He also fancies himself as somewhat of a Rock band critic.
On his site, nkscouting.com which he has maintained 
since 2001, Kane chronicles his trips to scout mostly High School basketball and football athletes. In an effort to make his site more interesting (his words) he details the travel experience, routes, times and in some cases photos of his visits to High Schools mostly within a few hours driving distance.
Very early on in Morgan’s case, blinkoncrime.com explored the idea that perhaps the double murder of VT freshmen David Metzler and Heidi Childs on August 27th should be investigated as a possible link to Morgan’s case simply because they attend the school and Morgan and Heidi bare a remarkable resemblance to one another.
As far as very odd coincidences go, the location of Nelson Kane’s scouting foray the evening of the August 28th could not be more relevant.
Kane scouted the game at Jefferson Forest High School. The very 
School Heidi Childs graduated from a year earlier. Unlike most of Kane’s other journal entries of his athlete accolades, there is no mention of his travel experience to or from Forest High School so it is unclear where he left from, when he got there, or when he returned home.
This is in no way an accusation that Mr. Kane had any involvement whatsoever in such a heinous crime, of course, but given his proclivities for leaving at all hours of the day and night his keen attention to travel detail and familiarity with the area: Perhaps he saw someone or something amiss in his trip that could help investigators.
On Saturday October 17th, Kane scouts a game, listens to the UVA football game on his way home and is home in plenty of time to make the concert.
Blink how do you know he was at the concert you ask? I do not. I do know he knows alot about security at the JPJ Arena, how to navigate the different lots near Uhall, and of course that there are blue portable lavatories next to Lanigan Field.

Thanks to Blink and Bean, J2K, TR, radiogirl, and Word Girl for your replies to my “gentleman” post. (apols to anyone I missed) —————————

“Wow, this story just gets better all the time:”
“Better?” Yikes. I hope you mean “worse.”
The public doesn’t know yet that the reporter is necessarily correct, or that the BB players are telling the truth.

Re: 400
“better” = more incredible
The implication from this article is the Morgan called the friends. However, we have been told that it was the other way around.
” She told friends – using a cellphone – that she might try to hitchhike home. Her purse and cellphone were found the next day near where she was last seen.”
Needless to say, the cellphone from which she called them or they called her is relevant.

Is everyone else uncomfortable at the intimation of the word “approached”. Would imply purpose, no?
B
Is everyone else uncomfortable at the intimation of the word “approached”. Would imply purpose, no?
B
The best defense is a good offense…
True about the word ‘approached’. I am more uncomfortable with the statement made ie. the players yesterday. Not what was said, but the fact that anything was said at all.
Kind of like a lead balloon, no?
Yes, imo.
B
Yes, Blink–as in “these wholesome innocent lads were ‘approached’ by this “young lady” (the flip side of Mr. H’s “young gentleman” = dubious character). Hookers approach their johns.
Corporate closes ranks to blame the victim. But this may be how the BB players agreed to slant their story, too.
To me, “approached” means that she initiated any conversation. So, depending upon what she said or asked, yes, probably with a purpose.
But, that was my impression all along. Somehow, I just hadn’t envisioned a group of basketball players approaching a young woman in a parking lot, unless she looked/acted as if she needed help.
An alternate meaning could be that she was just headed their way, and thus physically “approached” them.
Or, it could just be sloppy reporting.
Elizabeth –
I have also read that Morgan transferred from JMU to Virginia Tech. In addition, it appears she changed schools in high school as well. I find this unusual. Apparently Morgan was very smart and a good student so it is doubtful she transferred due to grades. Also – with the close friendships of “The Nine” it strikes me as strange she would switch schools twice. I am beginning to wonder if there were specific situations going on that made it “easier” for Morgan to start somewhere fresh. I do not intend to disrespect Morgan or her family in any way – it is very normal for teenagers/college age kids to rebel in some way. I personally was secretly rebelliuos and kept everything from my parents. My sister on the other hand loved to push my parents buttons so was more openly rebellious. If Morgan was more like my sister it might explain some of the changes as well as the close and frequent contact with her parents (ex: studying for a test and balancing her checkbook with her Dad). I love my family dearly but was so wrapped up in the fun I was having in college that I would not have gone home so frequently.
My whole point is to say that there may be very important clues in Morgan’s past (old boyfriend or friend) and that Morgan may have been somewhat openly rebellious and more likely to engage in risky behavior (hitchhiking).
Although I know it would cause her family, friends, and many on this board much pain, the best case scenario at this point is that Morgan did voluntarily disappear and is alive and well. In my heart I doubt this is the case but I am hopeful and praying for her safe return.
“Approached” to deflect from any idea that they initiated contact.UVA seems very concerned for their precious athletes,aren’t they? This is big news on November 24th – how? They need to be careful how they hint about Morgan’s character. UVA would probably like to say “This drunk floozy was all over our little darlings!”
Yes, I suspect they used “approached” to further emphasize the bb players innocence. Even if she initiated the contact it doesn’t mean they aren’t involved in some way other than having a conversation with her. Not that I believe they are, I’m like everyone else, don’t know what to believe. That said, are you willing to share any broad theories with us, Blink?
BLINK – if you could please answer me, I would greatly appreciate it as I highly respect your opinions and insight. I have posted questions before but have not gotten answers.
My question is this. I find it EXTREMELY odd how this case is being handled. Not typical for a missing persons case. Typically in most missing persons cases that I have followed, they WANT to get as much information out to the public as possible, they conduct active searches, there are multiple press conferences, they would release more detailed information about her state of mind, what the people she was last in contact with had to say, etc.
Not with this case. LE has been very tight lipped, it seems as though no additional searches are scheduled at this time, now the Harrington family appears to be quiet, silence on what the BB players say about their interaction with her, not much about what the friends have to say, mystery around the make friend and who she was texting, etc.
This just makes absolutely no sense to me.
Do you in your heart believe that the LE is hot on the trail, so to speak, that they have a definate POI? Do you feel that Morgan may still be alive (I pray) and that this case will break soon?
Judi, my apologies if you did not feel you got answers here, but I do not always answer individual comments if I have addressed the issue already, and of course, time constraints, so I do recommend reading the entire thread. That said, this investigation is typical for a case that has a POI and are building a case against same. It is A typical if they do not have a clue where she is or what happened, I would go as far as to say negligent. I personally believe they know what happened to Morgan and are working to insure a successful prosecution in this case.
I feel this case will break soon, and sadly, I do not believe Morgan is alive.
B
The word “approached” screamed out at me. What does that mean exactly? Did she walk up to them and ask to use their phone? Obviously her purpose was not to ask for a ride?! Would they have declined to give her a ride? My gut says no.
This case is not being handled like a typically missing persons case. Something else is going on here.
I just have one question re: the Orange, VA sighting. Would that be a normal route to take to get back to Harrisonburg? It looks kind of out of the way on the map but I’m not from around there. BTW, great site.
This is the first time that I have heard or seen it written anywhere that Morgan told her friends that she might hitchhike home.
If my friend told me that, I would be very concerned about it. And, if she did, in fact, tell her friends that, why wouldn’t that information have been released right away?
Hitchhiking would definitely bring someone “out of the area”.
So, is the hitchhiking thing something that was just thrown in there?
She is LAST seen by the basketball players(according to the article)
Her purse and cell phone are found near place she was LAST seen.
Could someone refresh my memory please.
I have read several post regarding the LE in this case.
But if I recall this case was first being investigated by the UVA authorities, than local with the FBI somewhat looking in.
(Please correct me if I am wrong here) this could be part of the problem.
Also early on I questioned why the “friends” were not being given a lie detector test.
Sorry can not remember who responded, but the statment was “Laws in the State of Virginia prohibit a mandated lie detector test for witnesses”
I certainly am not aware of all the laws in the State of Virginia, but it appears that this maybe hindering the case as well.
I personally do not think that LE have a specific POI and that their
efforts in this case are to a certain degree limited.
MsL (re: #375) Perhaps the commenter got the attribution mixed up… more likely it was the other way around. It’d make sense to not want that in the headlines, I suppose.
Counselor4u (re: 396) I hope my comment about strategic silence on the part of LE did not sound scolding – no need to apologize. Just expressing my own thoughts on the matter, shared by our in-house Observational expert:
Comment by Observer — November 24, 2009 @ 10:41 am
RE: LE withholding information: “If (emphasis on the word “if”) LE is withholding information from the public in the case of the MH disappearance, there is a reason; a bonafide, good reason.
Note: I am not asserting that LE is doing so at this moment. I am, however, attempting to explain that when LE does knowingly and willfully withhold information, they do so with an express purpose. It is not done lightly or to thwart the otherwise good intentions of the public who wish to assist with a case.”
But I think we all share your frustration.
B – (re: #403) As far as “approached,” is it possible MH approached the BB players to use their phone (cell battery dead)? If one was produced for her, maybe she was unable to remember the number she needed to call or called her voicemail – thus, the prolonged 10-minute interaction.
That could also be the reason LE is asking anyone that may have lent MH their phone that night/receievd a wrong number call to come forward – if she needed to borrow a phone once, she may have neede to again.
Who are these friends that would allow their girlfriend to hitch hike in this day and age.Either these have got to be those most unaware young people on the planet or this just isn’t correct!
Sorry to change the subject so abruptly but that is the only question I have, I’m at work and no time to read back through everything LOL! I just re-read an article last night in which Geller was quoted as saying they had not been able to rule that sighting out…
#413 Judi –
My personal belief is that LE has had their POI for quite some time. They talked to the friends, they talked to the BB players. They need to follow every lead to be able to “back up” what they already know.
The silence, to me, is a good sign. I am sure that LE is right on top of this and working diligently behind the scenes to bring this to a closure.
You say this is not being handled like a typical missing persons case. My belief is, it’s because they already know.
Yes I agree about the word “approached” I also would like to know 2 things. First the article said she told her friends by cell phone she might try to hitchhike. Was that a text or did the friends suggest this. I do not trust the friends. Is that what LE considers confirmed. Also It says the BB players confirmed a female approaching that was Consistant with MS. Harrington’s appearance. To me these are not confirmed.
Thank you, Blink!!! I greatly respect your opinions and insight and also love your site (I am here everyday!!)
Praying for Morgan, praying for answers, praying for a break in this case!
Best wishes to all here for a Happy Thanksgiving and we should all be greatful for what and who we have. The Harrington family will be in my prayers and thoughts. May God provide them the strenth they need to make it through and embrace Morgan her family in his loving arms.
“Approached”
In a earlier post I theorized that Morgan had been assaulted in the parking lot and that is when her purse was pulled off.
She was able to escape? break free, saw the BB players and ran to them for protection. assault-ant also runs away.
I still believe that this is a possibility.
It would answer why her purse was found in the parking lot and why the BB players stayed with her for 10 minutes.
I also think the assault-ant was the same person who eventually grabbed her. Dark parking lot he easily could have been lurking around and when he saw Morgan walk away alone, did not give up on his target.
sweetpea (re: #422) I have a hard time believing that at a huge Saturday-night concert event in a new, well-lit campus stadium, rife with people and drivers in the lot, sports players trickling out of practice sessions next door, and several busy roads framing the scene, that a screaming/running woman with long, bright-blond hair would desperately flee from an attacker in a total vaccuum.
It’s possible, sure, but not likely. Also, if we are to assume the witness acounts LE has referenced are legit, then she was seen walking through the lot, encountered the BB players heading from practice, then made her way onto Copeley Road, trekking over the bridge toward Ivy Lane.
I am not at all convinced she was grabbed by an unknown assailant. Statistically, that’s unlikely, and given the random nature of being tossed out of a concert (if that’s what happened), and the small window of time between then and when she disappeared, it seems even more unlikely. That type of crime is usually not spontanious.
But again, anything is possible.
To J2K (11/25; 12:07pm): Two words:
Well said.
if le has a suspect and is silent for that reason,that’s one thing,if they have no suspect,i would assume they’d be working mostly off the bb players info,now that uva has officially acknowledged that the bb interacted with morgan,and cooperated with le,the next step is what they told le,we know unofficially,they finished practiced were in the lot at 9:20 and left morgan in the loT as they left in two seperate cars.if you were le in this case wouldnt you kinda want to look in their cars ,whats that special light,search warrants?i mean unless you have some other better than that lead. bb teams have lots of hangers on,i laughed one time ,everyones a team manager.so sorry to the team,doesnt mean your a suspect, there isnt one ,just part of the investigation, but point me in another direction,oh they did?was that the bb players who saw her thumb out hitchhiking,or ,she said that to a friend in a text? is that confirmed? ok the proof ,truth timing will tell if we ever get to hear.
I believe that Morgan approached the basketball players and asked to use their phone because her battery was dead or had fallen out.
I believe prior to that time she had been directed by whomever she was in contact with to the RV lot/bridge area. I believe she was picked up at the RV/bridge area by someone she knew, was told she could hang with them and they would drive her back home, that they did indeed attempt to drive her to whereever but something bad happened, they freaked and then drove back to the place they picked her up and threw her phone and purse in the lot to try to misdirect authorities. If this is the case, somebody will crack eventually.
This guy is a freak why would you post your every move on the day Morgan disappeared unless you want an alibi i hope he has been looked into he freaks me out..the world is full of weirdos
All time reader-First time poster, but this site & this case is just way too hard to resist.
Has it ever been mentioned whether the male friend actually rode back with the other friends that night after the concert? If he didn’t make it into the concert, because – let’s say, he was impaired, and MH decided to go out & check on him & encourage him to come inside (then denied re-entry) had to go back to him…where’d they go next? Lots of ifs, I know, but I’m pretty convinced that this male friend is somehow involved…IMO.
Thanks for an amazing site Blink…you have officially sucked me in!
TY. allegedly yes, he rode down and back.
B
399 Sue,
I’m taking your advice and in between fluffing up the house and thawing a turkey,along with my traditional Bloody Mary,I Will go back and re-read Blink’s first article and posts on this case.This being the last day before sitting around my table with my spit polished kids and their perfumed wives and girlfriends,I think of those who have empty chair at theirs………
#425
It was my understanding that the parking lot was not that well lit and
women and men are assaulted and kidnapped in parking lots all the time.
Our local news station recently did a piece on what to watch for in parking lots due to past attempted kidnappings and successful ones as well.
One thing that was mentioned was to avoid walking next to vans. Assaillant was sliding door open quickly and pulling women inside. This took place in broad daylight at a busy grocery store.
Remember the grandmother that made a statement about hearing a scuffle
between a man and a woman while waiting in her car in the parking lot.
Blink, Observer, Cvillegirl, and any other locals, if you needed a good defense attorney, crim that is, who do you hire there in Charlottesville?
http://www.superlawyers.com/virginia/Charlottesville/Criminal-Defense/browse
Blink, maybe you or one of your team could do some investigative work? I guarantee these players have had attorneys working for them since Monday, October 19th. I also guarantee the suspensions came as a result of the players not having come forward voluntarily and possibly even because they engaged in some conduct unbecoming to the University on that fateful night.
If I were one of these players, and I had ‘partied’ or whatever with Morgan that night, I would have an attorney from the get go, NO MATTER WHAT. Even if that is all that happened, they should have representation, and I strongly believe that they do.
I see the word “approach” to mean she possibly asked them for something. I would “approach” someone (who I don’t know) when I needed, say, directions or perhaps a ride (if I’m high enough). If she knew them and “approached” them then, in addition to what I just listed, there could be a bevy of things she approached them about. It’s clear to me now that the BB players are key to this puzzle.
It’s wise to remember that the press release yesterday about the bb players came from the UVA *public affairs* office. As public relations specialists it’s a fair guess they’ve wanted to release a statement on behalf of the university for a long time. I doubt this was something done in hindsight.
My guess is that very early on they collaborated with LE, and the subsequent statement was a very carefully worded piece released ONLY when certain interviews/information had been gathered. To me, this reinforces the fact that LE is running a tight ship. I sure hope I am correct.
The other day, we drove the route she supposedly traveled on foot. The thing that surprised me the most is that it is a very SHORT walk, takes almost no time at all, and you can see the parking lot and arena from the spot on the bridge where she was supposedly last seen. The aerial pictures/maps make it seem like there is quite a span between the sightings, but really it’s a very, very short distance from the arena to Copely bridge.
Pardon the off topic, but has anyone else wondered what the median IQ over on the Facebook site might be?
Just sayin.
I think even more telling than LE’s silence is the silence of the Harringtons. They do not strike me as people who would be patiently waiting with no announcements. I believe they are aware of what LE has and laying low to ensure that the monster who stole their daughter is prosecuted.
I just read the comment about UVa’s little darlings, referring to the basketball players. Many schools idolize their athletes, and at one time Virginia had one of the premiere basketball teams in the country with all the hoopla and hero worship that goes with a top ranked team. Winning has not been the norm for either Virginia’s basketball or football team for a number of years and it’s been pretty evident this year, particularly with the football team, hero worship fades very quickly with more L’s than W’s. Based on the spokesperson for UVa, apparently the players weren’t just hanging out in the parking lot the night of the concert but had left practice at U-Hall (UVa’s basketball arena prior to building of JPJ, and now used for other functions, one being the basketball practice facility.) It’s neither odd or sinister that Morgan, or someone resembling Morgan, would have encountered members of the team given that she was seen in the U-Hall lot and later in the RV lot, the lot players are required to use during concerts. If we are to believe LE reports, and if they got their information from people other than the basketball players (not clear) then Morgan, or someone who looked like Morgan, was seen on the bridge after she left the players in the parking lot. If their stories do not check out, then I think LE is very aware of that fact and are investigating accordingly. If there were no law enforcement agencies other than the UVa Police Department involved in the investigation, then I could understand that people might think there was a conflict of interest that could lead to a cover-up. Given that at least two other local departments (Charlottesville and Albemarle) are involved along with the Virginia State Police and to some extent, the FBI, I just do not see the potential for a cover-up should the basketball players’ encounter with the young lady in the parking be more sinister than has been reported.
Sorry, I also meant to include that the suspended player has now resumed playing, and the player who left for “personal reasons” expects to return to the team after their current tournament (don’t remember where they are playing.) Someone on a local Charlottesville forum wrote that he/she did not believe the coach (new this year) would jeopardize his reputation and possible career by protecting players he thought could be involved in the disappearance.
While I tend to think the basketball players were accidental, not to mention, innocent actors in this whole tragic affair, I did find the timing interesting to say the least for the latest release from the UVa press office about their involvement.
Did not come until the players were in Cancun, Mexico, for a tournament
#435-Sue-Thanks for the chuckle. I was wondering the same thing.{*_*}
#436-Lily2–I agree. The Harrington’s are very quiet, especially when you’d expect them to say something since tomorrow is Thanksgiving. They must have been told by the LE’s what the status of the case is at this time. They don’t wish to do or say anything that will hurt the investigation.
I’m in awe of the Harrington’s and of how they have conducted themselves in public. This is every parents worst nightmare. My heart sure goes out to them.
I have spent most of this day reading the beginning of this thread. I’m still not finished going through every post just yet. I saw where Gil Harrington stated that she and Dan had called Morgan’s cell phone, just to hear Morgans voice on her voice mail. How heartbreaking.
Everybody, please stay safe–and have a good Thanksgiving. Let’s all remember to pray for those who have empty seats around their tables this year. God Bless.
To Observer — re: comment on November 25, 2009 @ 12:27 pm
Two words: Thank you.
And here’s a few more: I think that MH’s youth and beauty, portrayed as “alone in the cold, dark night,” are causing some people to lose sight of relatively simple explanations for what occurred, and instead assume she was the victim of a shocking and horrific crime that stemmed from bad luck and strange choices. I opine that many of the seemingly baffling aspects of her evening and the case in general make more sense if one removes the assumption she was kidnapped and murdered (because two or three beautiful, college-aged women a year – tops – meet that horrific fate, and make national headlines).
#428 re: Comment by mary — November 25, 2009 @ 12:39 pm
Agreed. Although, I believe she had a specific destination in mind, and inadvertently met her fate there, causing a panicked coverup. Not as terrifying an explanation, but just as tragic.
#430 re: Comment by sweetpea — November 25, 2009 @ 1:38 pm
I can certainly appreciate the potential danger lurking in dark corners of a vast parking lot, but I do not believe that was the case at that venue on that evening. In fact, I, like you, originally pictured the RV lot as secluded and foreboding (due to the ubiquitous media description of it as “dark and tree-shrouded), but I recently read that the RV lot is actually lit up for big events with overflow parking (as was the case on Oct. 17).
Hi Sue…I don’t know about defense attorney’s here, but I do know that when UVa students and student atheletes get in trouble in Charlottesville, their daddies usually get them a good high-powered lawyer from DC. I don’t believe these two basketball players who have recently left or been suspended would have looked to DC for a lawyer, and NCAA rules would not permit a generous alumni donor help out in this situation. My feeling is also that local LE would in no way want to protect a student or student athelete in order to “save face” for UVa…especially if he were involved in the disappearance of a young woman. There have been some cases where football players have been charged with assult, only to have charges reduced to nothing because of these fancy lawyers. Al Groh (the coach) has usually, in the end, provided the harshest sentence. This is from a townie (and UVa grad’s) point of view. Someone higher up at UVa might disagree.
BTW, please read Skyler’s post on Blink’s hitchhiking thread…she’s fired up and making a great arguement.
“Is everyone else uncomfortable at the intimation of the word “approached”. Would imply purpose, no?
B”
Yes, I agree it implies purpose.
Since it has not been officially confirmed that is was Morgan who interacted with these players, let me say “IF” this was Morgan, then the purpose of the approach would be, IMO, on the part of Morgan.
I have had the impression that Morgan had a goal in mind, and in an attempt to reach that goal, may have approached those players.
Perhaps she was looking for someone in particular (other than these fellows), or the location where someone in particular may be, and/or assistance in getting there. If her cell phone did not work due to the no battery charge, perhaps she did ask to borrow a phone. But that is “if” her battery was not working, and “if” the players even had a cell phone.
Perhaps she approached the players because the individual she may have been seeking was also within/close to the “sports” circle somehow. Perhaps there was a location known where “sports people” would go to hang out, socialize or reside. Perhaps there was a known party or a party location that she felt the basketball players might have knowledge of.
I don’t believe these bb players harmed Morgan.
Maybe a lift was given somewhere, she was dropped off and that ended the bbplayer’s interaction. Perhaps one or more of the bb players got out at or near the same location. Very possible it was a “social” environment of sorts – - maybe at student residences – -, and the players, separate and away from Morgan, indulged in what may have resulted in their violating the team rules – - breaking curfew, drinking, maybe a minor altercation with another individual or a sports rival, etc., which resulted in their temporary suspensions.
Then again, Morgan may have not left the JPJ area with them at all.
She may have eventually left with that “particular someone” in a vehicle and was not the one seen walking on the bridge.
Or maybe she ended up walking with that someone, but when she was spotted as per witness, the other person was on the other side of the two lanes at that moment and was not noticed.
The 2 may have had a disagreement before the bridge, and she walked off, with him following. (Wasn’t there a female witness to an exchange involving a “hands on arm” situation?)
Also, a stranger may have been following her onto the bridge, and she was not aware.
Whoever did or caused any harm to Morgan, IMO, knew where she had been in relation to the areas outside the JPJ Arena. That person, or someone “for” that person, returned later to throw her purse on the ground to cover the fact she had left the area, not to mention with or to whom.
Sorry for the long response.
Since the average US IQ is estimated at about 98, I’d say the Facebook average is around 75 on a good day.
Story in The C’Ville Hook on D. Rice.
http://www.readthehook.com/blog/index.php/2009/11/25/re-released-darrell-rice-readies-for-freedom/
She told friends – using a cellphone – “that she might try to hitchhike home. Her purse and cellphone were found the next day near where she was last seen.”
Might try? Okay. How’s about 1 of the friends saying -Hey instead of that “I might try” to bring you your keys – meet be by the front door.
If this is the only information that lead LE to believe Morgan was hitching that night, it is not enough. IMO
Blink, I hope you are right when you say LE has someone in their sights. I am appalled at how easy it was for Morgan to just disappear. Never to be seen, even on the security cameras at the arena.
Here’s how I see that comment if true, from the friends:
Morgan: Get the eff out here and give me the keys to my car, hand them to security, whatever, what do you expect, I should hitch a ride home?
Did anyone find it odd that in one video on Primetime, Gil saying that when Morgan returns she has “alot of splainin to do”? Could it be that Morgan was given a credit card to use and LE has evidence that the card was indeed used after her 9:30 sighting? If no one was at the ATM with her, making her do this, then she would in a mothers eyes have some “splainin to do”.
