The neutral I can also kind of explain with my personal incident. He tried to put the car in reverse when we remembered the water was over the road, but only got to neutral because the car wouldn't let him put it in reverse with the forward momentum we had. No time to do anything else after that because we were in the water by that time. That car was also in neutral when we left it. We had to set the parking brake after we pushed it as far to the shore as we could so it wouldn't roll back in further. (it wouldn't let us put it in gear after neutral because the car had died in the water and had to be running to put in gear)
Again I get it if there is time at all but not so sure here... Maybe if she instantly tried the minute she hit water or off shore to reverse but it so sounds like this would have been so immediate with that window open that the normal precious extra bit of time the car is buoyant wouldn't have existed.
I could maybe more easily believe she was trying to park it near the water with neutral and then the car gained a bit of downhill roll, but I don't can't even see that.
One thing on its own wouldn't give me a lot of pause but the things added together do... And then thinking of the water pressure and forces in the car with an open window I don't know...
If we reverse this instead of thinking of the most innocent thing first, an accident, then one can fit easily foul play with all of these factors... In that scenario, all make sense easily. In the accident scenario, there are questions.
I also stay to the most likely in cases but things/facts change it... In this case with the facts (if they are indeed facts) the most likely isn't an accident.
I'll tell you also the water in the lungs I see no reason to hold the info with all of the speculation going on and see no way it would harm the case.
They did an initial autopsy immediately.
MAYBE just until they ensure no foul play they will wait and be sure the initial results are accurate but I would think we'd be hearing something pretty soon if this is an accident. At least a few preliminary things.
Who knows but again there is a lot here that is questionable.
Parties. Lies. Plans. Fights. Stories not aligning. Time frame not adding up. Minors. Strangers. Drugs. Alcohol. Then add in these other things, the tow truck, neutral, she was in the back, the cops couldn't find her (and I get that often happens but when coupled with other things....) and a lot more.
Just saying I can't put this one "to bed" yet.
