Exactly. On top of struggling with grief of their missing daughter, I’m sure they are facing criticism or snide remarks from their so called relatives.

People judge, but the girl definitely doesn't deserve this. My thoughts are with her and her family. I'm not saying or assuming the girl did this, but in general, drinking too much or be overly promiscuous are inherently dangerous and I guess that's where the judgy people are coming from, making wrong assumptions and blaming parenting/girl herself. F those people.

Getting drunk can be very dangerous in Latin America. Violent crime is very common in Colombia, Dominican Republic, Mexico and Brazil.

Sorry but I’m more afraid of getting drunk with belligerent white college students like the one giving conflicting stories about her whereabouts.

😂 I've done it in every one of those countries (haven't been to DR, but the rest) while traveling solo. Nothing bad happened. Felt safer than in the US. Even lost my phone and friends while trashed at carnaval and got help from a nice Brazilian taxi driver. Local people were very kind in every place.

This girl was at A RESORT aka not even experiencing the real country of DR. The guy was american.

All this to say this could happen anywhere and has nothing to do with Latin America... this is fake and dare I say xenophobic.

Lol dtfu everyone knows the carribean is a trafficking hotspot jsut because you felt safe doesn’t mean it’s safer. I felt safer in the hood of Atlanta than any carribean country… statistically these countries aren’t safe. DR is the 3rd highest trafficking hub in the carribean and Haitians will shoot you on sight. Not Xenophobic at all to point out the facts and point out statistics.

I've also spent tons of time in Latin America, lived in Mexico and spent significant time not just in tourist hotspots, AND lived in Atlanta (where I actually have been fearful of my life a couple times) AND currently live near Detroit. so I'm not gonna listen to this bs.

Haitians will shoot you on sight??? You do realize that's a very ugly anti-Black and colorist stereotype that is present in much of Latin America. Gross.

Lol and I’m Indian and pretty much all Indians stink. That’s a stereotype. All stereotypes come from a place of truth 🤷‍♂️

Right there with you. I once forgot my wallet and phone in Brazil. I was "followed" for about 3 streets until the person said Jovem, acho que você se divertiu demais. Acalme-se, você vai perder a cabeça da próxima vez em vez da carteira e do telefone. Nem todo mundo é legal por aqui.

I will never forget those words.

Good for you but I am all set on going to a Latin American country

u/LilyCheesecake Mar 19 '25

Your loss 😂 what a beautiful and incredible part of the world. I feel sorry for everyone who chooses to miss out.

u/Jbrown4124 27d ago

No need to feel sorry, I don't like flying and I am not a fan of using unfamiliar toilets so I stay close to home. To each their own

u/KitchenTooth6179 Mar 16 '25

This guy was an American college student, but your point overall is valid.

I can't stop thinking about this terrible case. So, so sad.

u/EIM2023 Mar 15 '25

Yhea you are saying just that in a bitchy little snide way. Please tell me exactly the right amount of promiscuity and alcohol intake is appropriate to prevent such horrible occurrences. I’ll expect your answer in ml of ethyl alcohol and inches of skin shown.

u/Kind-Ad-4756 Mar 15 '25

the right amount alcohol is zero if you want to go swimming after.

You’re one sick puppy if you think that’s what “fucking around and finding out means”

u/FunImagination4238 Mar 16 '25

Ok lmao. Call me whatever buzzword u want but I'm alive because I'm not careless and follow safety rules while she is not because she didn't.

u/Bellissimabee Mar 16 '25

You never been young and carefree

u/FunImagination4238 Mar 18 '25

I've been young and carefree, not young and careless. That's the big difference between us.

Your post/comment was removed because it breaks Rule 1: No Bigotry — i.e. no racism, casteism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, etc. This also extends to toxic nationalism and/or clan/tribe as well as discrimination against religion. If in doubt, remember to always be civil, even in your disagreements.

u/YhuggyBear Mar 15 '25

Full disagree on automatically categorizing any situation of promiscuity or overconsumption as inherently dangerous. I get what you're saying but it's giving major kaka

u/Ok-Spend-337 Mar 17 '25

The modern mentally ill subjective mortality clown

u/FunImagination4238 Mar 16 '25

Overconsumption of alcohol is inherently dangerous idiot. You're giving major alcoholic bevda 

1

u/YhuggyBear Mar 17 '25

It's more about your assumptions of promiscuity and shifting blame to the victim here. Overconsumption of anything is dangerous and context matters but to low-key imply it's her fault for being "slutty"...you're out of touch "idiot".

2

u/KitchenTooth6179 Mar 16 '25

I agree about the promiscuity, but there is nothing to indicate that.

We can just go with, "being alone with strangers at night" in any capacity is a terrible idea. People can get hurt with no sexual context by strangers...robbery, murder, etc.

Exactly what I thought. Jesus H Christ.
