Girl Missing from RIU Hotel in Punta Cana
The article Windy posted clearly said they questioned the girls and their stories weren't consistent.
There are few cases with extraterritorial and universal jurisdiction. For example kidnapping, complex RICO and drug cartel cases, abuse of minors (by law passed in congress)/human trafficking, attacks/harm on a federal agent may perhaps be used for that aspect as they can qualify as crimes against the US.
In this instance, how does the US have jurisdiction? Was there any US contact/nexus (conspiracy, planning or finances) in the execution of the suspected crime? What crime was theoretically committed against the US? The Federal government doesn't even get involved in State level murder cases unless a federal law was violated. There are cases of US citizens murdering each other on foreign soil - a good one was the Brent case - but having no way to pursue it in the US.
Also could you identify the source of the information you shared? I think the Justice Dept. is authoritative on extraterritorially, they are the ones who make such calls. Past precedent also stands on its own.
Where have I been wrong? Please show me where I was wrong on a case fact. I was incorrect in the timeline, but corrected it, yes or no? Much more than what most would do. Your panties are just in a bunch now for some reason. You need to focus. Stop being a crybaby
EHM asks in post #478 about "the water narrative" and there being "zero corroborating evidence " for it. I think her clothes were found neatly on one of the chaise lounges, if I remember correctly. I don't know if that was meant to say all her clothes or just what she was wearing over her bikini. That would seem to me to indicate a desire to enter the water. Definitive? No, but it's more than zero. What happened after that, we won't know for sure if she can't be found.
You also said a girl like her would never drink and then a video showed her drinking and stumbling down the sidewalk. Try sticking to facts from now on, ok?
Do you know she was drunk? Do you have BAC data? No you don’t. You sir, stick to the facts!
is there a POINT here ? Cuz I dont wanna miss it if there is one .
They questioned him,. they questioned the other Girls .
their stories did not match , How much of it did not match, or match their Previous Story , we dont know
Im unclear what you are getting at .
This is correct. Egos aside, any reasonable person understands that the most basic proof of something even close to the truth, is it doesn’t vary from person to person or, especially and most significantly, the main person of interest. When something is shady, you can count 100% of the time that there will be various conflicting accounts.
Adding: it was said up I think by you as well, standard playbook is to ask repeatedly the same questions worded uniquely, in attempts to trip up the persons not telling the truth.
I didn't say she was drunk. I said video showed her and her friends drinking and then stumbling down the sidewalk. Those are the facts.
You’ve exhausted me. I have to hand it to you. Have a great rest of the day. Maybe stop in at the Janet’s new store and make a cooking project!
That isn't the way I read it. The report said there were inconsistencies between the girls' version of events. The point being, it's not uncommon for even totally sober witnesses to recall slightly different versions of what happened.
I'm going to stop into Janet's later but, after this discussion, I think I'm going to need a six pack of Presidente.
So this girl and her group of friends went clubbing and drinking all night at Coco Bongo. Come back to the resort and hang out on the beach, and the girl stays behind with this guy? It would difficult to kill this girl and hide the body (much more difficult to take a body off of the resort) somewhere nearby. She probably drown.
Missing socks, shoes too. He also had a phone - that could be key to answering lots of questions if it also didn't go missing.
None of this will add up to a hill of beans if they don't recover the body.
Exactly. An autopsy can determine if she died by drowning, a medical issue, or if she was assaulted physically or sexually. I don’t know how long alcohol stays in a dead body. Probably diluted to a non detectable level by now if she was drinking. Certain drugs have a long residency time as do some toxins, if drugs were involved. No body, no clues that means no resolution and unfortunately, no closure for her grieving parents.
Arguably one of the dumbest things I've heard anyone say in a very long time.
The Dominican government with assistance from the US authorities are doing their absolute best to locate this young women.
