This whole thing is really sketchy. We can definitely wonder why a mom of four kids is out late at night, but maybe she got a sitter and wanted to just go out and have fun. I read a few articles about her, and it looks like she was close to her family and friends, so she wasn't some person on the fringes of society.
Here's the point I'm getting to. There is an epidemic of human trafficking in the United States. The perpetrators aren't just going after runaway or orphaned girls; they are now targeting young women with stable home lives, educations, etc. YouTube is rife with young women sharing stories about how they were almost trafficked and/or abducted. Sometimes these traffickers even use apps like U!ber and L!ft to target unsuspecting women.
I'm thinking that this women could have been abducted. There is a chance she made some poor decisions, but maybe one of the guys she was with acted friendly until it was time to do something horrible to her.
