Not only covid but the price of air travel has skyrocketed. I was going to fly to Dallas from CT almost 2 months ago and 1 way tickets were over $600. Also, my BFF lives in PA and they have made many many additional restrictions recently. And if AS didnt have the ability to quarantine for 2 weeks before returning to TX, She may not have been able to travel back by plane.

Jmo and all that.
Holy smokes! That’s high!
I’ve been doing flight bookings for the past several months and it’s been cheap - Spirit was $39-$59 even booking the day before a flight. Southwest has been cheap too and they’re blocking middle seats. But it’s been mostly the larger airports, that could be the difference? IDK

If AS flew into a state with restrictions such as PA - who oversees that incoming visitors actually quarantine? Do they fill out a form upon arrival and contact tracing or LE actually go to where you’re staying to confirm? Or is it on the honor system?

I had to look up the quarantine because I actually hadn’t heard of it anywhere tbh. But this page was updated 12-4. I have no idea what it said before.

The only disconnect for me is if something did happen at the apartment complex...the apartments seem to have a parking garage off one side of the property for tenants to park, not normal parking spots like most complexes so I’m assuming there would be cameras on the way, in the garage and including the one on their front door. And it could be quite the walk depending on where exactly someone lived in the complex which would also be more chance to be seen and cross paths with people.
This is an important point.
 
Okay, so ive just spent some time walking around the complex are via Google. The entire complex seems to be gated with at least a 6ft fence, with the exception of a couple spots where there is a cement wall. The entrance/exit along the north side of the property has a closed gate on Google (I have no idea if this gate is kept closed or is normally open?), this would be the only feasible spot where someone could jump a patio fence and hop into a car but that would rely on that gate being open to freely come and go. Also a note on the gate of surveillance cameras.

Can any of the locals provide information as to whether special access is required to enter on the premises and to park in the garage or even just drive thru?

Pics included of property fence and the gated north entrance.

Yes I’m trying to get a grasp of the layout. No elevator to an underground garage? No matter where they were it seems a camera should have captured her escape over the fence or someone carrying her out, right?

Here’s the layout. Garage is on the right.

That’s a mighty high fence to get past. What are your thoughts @mrsu ?

IMO there is no way someone is jumping that fence if that’s the one that’s being referred to. Not only is it too high, there’s also shrubs in front of it in almost every area.

If it was patio fence that was being referenced, the only spot it could really have been would have been the north side of the complex where the driveway acts as a border, but again that requires the fence to be open for any vehicle to drive in/out.

The image below shows the apartments at the ground level. This is likely the only spot where someone could hop the patio fence and NOT have to also climb the 6 ft property fence and access a vehicle quickly.

On Google Streetview, the first floor (and above) apartments have a low fence across the patios. The first floor fence is the shortest of the fences, and most have trimmed boxwoods or other shrub in front of them, kind of obscuring them. This may be the "fence" jumped. It's very short.

Maybe they have enough to know they don’t need to ask?

Never hurts to get as much as possible. Easier at trial if an avalanche of evidence as opposed to a few bits and pieces. No rush bc there is no time expiration for murder. No statute of limitations running. Once arrested, time for the DA to be ready for trial starts to run.

Correct. But there are very few spots where she wouldn’t have had to then bypass the taller fence as well to leave the complex unless she went around/thru the whole complex area which if she did that, he wouldn’t have seen her get into a car.

Yes, I am not saying anything about the validity of his remark, just showing a fence. I have two scenarios/opinion I am keeping to myself due to TOS.

These are the only exterior fence exits I found that were visible on Google/had sidewalks going to from them.

Oops. Now my photos won’t upload. There are 2 fence exits at the back near the north entrance and 1 fenced exit at the front of the building east of the leasing center.

This makes sense.

JMVHO.
 
Is this where she was found?
Leaving her nude probably was to delay identification.
katy; is a one way. turning/merging into I-10 i think yes?
Have not read everything. Have they found her clothes?
If this is where she was found. And if katy merges into I-10.
Since the body was not hidden, I doubt they hid the clothes any better.
May have been thrown along the I-10 scattered along the I-10. Just thinking outside the box.
I would guess cause of death was suffocation. like a plastic bag or something. But suicide. Don't think so.

I live in PA and flew out of state in September and October. Quarantine here is by honor system. Other states may have stricter proof requirements. My sister came home from Australia when our mother died in June. At that time, there weren’t travel restrictions in PA (just advisories). But she had to have special Oz governmental permission to fly here. Upon her return to Australia, she was escorted by guard and ordered to stay in quarantine in one room of a hotel for 17 days. Not even allowed outdoors for a walk. They left 3 meals a day outside of her hotel door.
