Because I had heard that LE is leaning towards May's death as a suicide, I wondered if she had found a way to attach a hose with the exhaust going into the trunk. But, I can't think of a way that the hose to trunk hose set up would not set off warning signals in a fairly busy parking lot. That would be very poor planning. May was by all accounts organized, exceptionally brilliant, very detailed, and committed. It doesn't jive now that I understand more of the facts and her personality.
If it was a suicide I would think that May would commit it in an organized, clean, detailed manner and have all of her ducks in a row prior to it. If the trunk were a spacious trunk with a decent carpet, then I can picture it. But, I can't picture someone described with May's personality stuffing herself into a small trunk. I can understand if she did not want to die in her home or inside her campus quarters. But, I would think she would find a better way than to cram into her small trunk. But, I suppose it is possible. By the time someone reaches the point of deciding on suicide, a person's mind and thinking are already atypical.

the father stated, " Zhou said he had only recently learned that she
conducted some online banking transactions shortly before she left her apartment Saturday.
The transactions were ``unusual,'' he said, because of the amount. He declined to elaborate."
So like SeriouslySearching noted May conducted online banking shortly prior to her death. We have no idea what kind of banking it was or if it had anything to do with what happened. However, her father thought it was unusual. It may mean something. I hope LE is going over everything with an open mind so that all possible clues are not overlooked.
Sometimes there are tell tale signs that become more evident in hindsight. Giving away cherished possessions, for example. No mention was made of May doing anything preparatory, yet we don't know many of the details. She may have had signs we haven't heard. What we do know is that she was still actively planning her future it seems up until her death. This is a contradiction with suicide I would think.
I recall that initial findings in the autopsy showed no signs of foul play. That is troubling. However, I imagine there have been murders where there were no outward, physical sign of foul play. I hope LE is going on more then that in their determination of the facts.
May sounds like she was an asset to our world, a lovely, gifted young lady. Her family is grieving, and to add to their pain they must deal with the possibility that their beloved May killed herself. What may even be worse is that they just don't know. I pray for May's family, and my heart hurts for them.
