Sounds familiar, could've, I don't remember, lol!
I know that's how Jennifer met Sterns.
I recall Jennifer saying that Sterns would use the bathroom downstairs- that Angelica didn't want to share the one upstairs with Sterns (the other roommate's bedroom had it's own bathroom)- but I'm not sure I recall her saying she heard him use it that night. Anyway, no biggie, right? I mean whether JS heard him or not?
Well, I think he killed her in bedroom #4, and my theory is he carried her out of the apartment, likely covered with something like a blanket until he was about to leave and uncovered her and propped her up.
You know, that was the one thing that I found very hard to believe, that is, that he actually propped up her body like he did and drove around like that!
#1 yeah, not sure either but doesn't really matter. I don't think they were some tight friends previously or anything though but acquaintances maybe. Again doesn't matter.
#2 I don't know, probably doesn't matter but no way to be sure. I only brought it up as things were found downstairs and upstairs, etc. and he or someone heard both upstairs and downstairs over that night. All vague though as to whether it matters, probably not. None of it is real definitive so isn't much at this point.
#3 Well then I would think she'd be over his shoulder halfway or some such like men carry big bags of dog food or grass seed out of a store (some women too, not being sexist lol, God forbid I say something wrong) because taking her down the steps just carrying her full body in front is going to pull on him forward. I'm not going to say it could not be done but, and again I hate talking about this poor child like this, but we know a dead body is not like carrying even a sleeping one or willing awake one, especially if this was not immediately after her death.
You know, we can talk easily about this and him and that's good and we do fine with her too, just will not agree at this point lol, but I agree the propping her up and driving around WTH? AND coming back with her didn't he?? Did he actually believe she would appear to LE or anyone she was sleeping? I can only surmise he figured if he put her in the trunk or something like that, he wouldn't have proof he left with her to take her to school...? My other thought is IF he had any plan or thoughts at all, if someone saw him either in the house carrying her, blanket or none, or outside putting her in the passenger seat (trunk wouldn't allow this story) he'd probably have said she's unconscious, I can't wake her up, and I'm rushing her to the hospital. This is speculation on my part and who knows if he "thought" anything out but it seems likely. You can say that if putting her in the passenger seat and seen doing so, you coudln't if you put her in the trunk, nor could you show you left with her to take her to school.
The other thing that even amazes me with hard LE work is they found the hotel where he moved her in the parking ramp. It SOUNDS like some officer or detective went all up and down was it 169? I mean I can imagine in many investigations this would have never been found. I don't even know that they were looking for somewhere he did this, just more footage probably of him along 169 and so on...
How did he get in there? Wouldn't you have to be a paying guest to park in a hotel parking ramp? How did he even know of it for that matter? Had he or they stayed there before? I mean this part seemed to probably have been a plan, I doubt he was driving along and thought okay, let's see if I can park in there or even see if they have a parking indoor ramp area and if I can get in, and move her body to the trunk.... He knew the place obviously I'd say and/or did he have a way to get in, even a friend that worked there or anything? I mean I don't think he had many friends in the area but it's just all pretty curious to me using this hotel to do this, he had to have some knowledge of the place and so on. He apparently did NOT know the parking garage had cameras... OR he just thought they'd NEVER ever come across him here and/or that no one was probably actively watching those cameras or would ever review them and have no reason. That's saying the "man" thought things out though, but this part I think he may have... What do you think?
So now he doesn't want her seen sitting up in the car at this point. And I would suppose by now she was truly not staying up and I'm sure rigor set in and more and may have even prior. I guess it's harder to explain a person in the front seat when you get to where you are going to dispose of her so now you need to conceal and try not to have her seen when you dispose of her...
Man I hate in some ways talking this because it's still fresh enough that this poor young girl to talk of as a body is what bites for most families and such, the victim gets lost in the aftermath, I'd beg to differ with JS that she cares, but regardless, I hate discussing MS as a body and how he did all this, moved her, why, etc.
So trying to separate it as it is about what happened, justice, and so on for her, and how it went.
Trying to stay to one topic here, I have another to come I will make separate, but this I am trying to keep to him and her taking her out and putting her in the car, driving around with her, moving her to the trunk, and then disposing.
So the flat tire. I think we've talked of it but it's been some time back. Do you think he expected this? And it truly happened or he made it to happen? I tend to think it was God intervening or whatever one would like to call it, karma, happenstance, luck. Because even though they had a fair amount of his trail fairly quickly finding her would still be anywhere along the route and so on and they put that out on the news and bingo, someone had seen him and his car and someone with a flat. how long might it have been til she was found otherwise? And in Florida. They were able to get cause of death and I am guessing more if there is more because it was relatively quickly, I forget but within days, less than a week?
