I still don't think we have an entirely clear picture of how well everyone knew each other and how friendly everyone was. I know HT has been valuable, but in some cases she isn't quite the primary source for information and her interpretation of relationships is just that-her interpretation.
Good point to keep in mind, as we grasp for any solid ground in this case. Sometimes it seems developing a theory based on what anyone in this case has said is almost no better than pedrosmom's theory.
e.g., in prior threads, I floated a couple of my more "out there" theories, but tried to base them on what has been reported as LS's conduct/statements.
1. that LS was delineating her recreational pharmaceutical consumption at Kilroy's that night.
this tidbit led me to speculate that perhaps there was another substance (beyond the seemingly acknowledged alcohol/cocaine/xanax), b/c often in my experience individuals experiencing something for the first time like to catalogue all they've done before--esp if it was that night. So I profferred ketamine into the mix as a potential additional, new to LS substance that might explain some aspects of her behavior etc that night.
2. the other statement [ on the back of which I floated a far thinner and dubious theory] is:
LS asked MB if he wanted to party with her that night--this would've been after LS/CR returned to 5 North post-Kilroy's.
Two aspects to it:
Who reported this statement? MB self-reported it? DId he do so b/c it was made in front of CR? Or did he do so to perhaps corroborate/push the investigation toward an OD theory?
Second, presuming it's true, this casts MB in perhaps a more significant light than simply MB's roommate.
But, as I said, basing a theory on anything anyone involved has said is at best a dicey proposition.
What about the Kilroy patrons that night? they should be able to provide more info than we've gotten so far from them.
