Yes, I was trying to think of a situation, apart from already knowing him in person as opposed to online, in which she might have not thought twice about placing her luggage in the car and getting in, without knowing the driver, and I came up with her believing he was a second taxi or ride that had been sent to pick her up. To take her to a location that she could decide was safe or not before getting out of the car, so she didn't think this part of the arrangement was a risk.Your points all make sense.
For me, it's just really hard to reconcile the 3 AM meetup at the park unless she knew him. Keep in mind he didn't get out of the car so she must have put her luggage in his trunk. Both those are signs of some familiarity which doesn't mean she knew all those things. (I'll confess I've never sat in a car while a woman put her luggage in my trunk ...) I can only reconcile this with a drug meetup, which has questions too.
But if she knew him, wouldn't she know he lived in Rose Park and have met him there? Wouldn't some of the neighbors have recognized her car? Maybe they did and told LE but not media.
It's probably too advanced thinking for him though.
