I'm a bit invested in the missing woman in Ballarat, Samantha.
ramble, spoilered in case of triggers
I keep reading the news story and wondering what could have happened. Like, did she fall into a ditch and the tall grass is hiding her? Was she attacked and/abducted?It's just so strange. I really hope she is okay somehow, but being a bit of a true crime enthusiast it's hard to think that she is alive after 6 days. It doesn't make sense.
Sorry for the ramble, I hope she is alive and it was something mundane like falling or fainting in. A place that is hard to see. Her poor family.
Some reddit armchair detectives are calling suicide. Trouble is with so few details available you can make almost any theory sound convincing with a bit of conviction. With any luck she's just run off with someone she met online, she's reinvented herself, she now goes by becky and she's a barista over in Bali or some shit.
