its Salt Life !! Not Salt Line 😮
Also you cannot test for bath salt
Everyone should already figure out that his salt life saying came from the drug bath salt true story just look at him a picture says a 1000 words
Well but he has money….so.. he’ll pretty much get off.
"washed up surfer" 🤦🏾♀️😅
I’ve lived half my life in Florida (Boca, Parkland, & West Palm Beach) but every single day there’s something down here. I’ve been thinking about moving, but where to?
Never get a sugar daddy
Jacksonville is a stain on this nation
Looks like his "meth-od" didn't work out to well.
This lady and all the comments are more upset about age differences than this horrible crime.
They cost this women her life
Jax to st.augustine is only an hour away.
Its SaLTLiFE
Most likely he (killer) is older than her parents. You can't tell young people anything. They don't want to hear it. Insist on doing the opposite of parent command.
I reckon the both of them were completely off their heads, probably on meth and pills. Whether she took ithe drugs voluntarily or is imposible to know. It⁶ doesn't really matter as far as the case is concerned. He could obviously have had some plot to kill her but I wouldn't be surprised if it actually was an accident. Example: he's locked himself in the bathroom shooting up meth, getting paranoid. She's wondering what's taking so long, grabs the door handle and he thinks it's someone out to get him and if he's got his gun on him… That's one possibility, I'm sure there are a hundred others. Why did he run just leaving her there? Why do paranoid tweakers do anything?
It's super tragic that a young woman lost her life whatever the circumstances. I tend to not give anyone the benefit of doubt in suspicious death cases. Like I said it might have been premeditated but since he was in such a drugged up state when they came across him I highly doubt he could have kept his wits about him to follow through on any kind of plan.
Her parents were right though; he may not have murdered their daughter but she's gone because of him.
There is no excuse for his actions, he’s not a 14 year old kid. He’s a 54 year old man child.
Money isn’t everything. Be careful who you date.
Really, you don't understand the charges? There's no evidence, all they have is his story, she likely took the drugs willingly, he DID act very bizarre after the incident, and he shot her in the abdomen, not exactly a high kill zone. That's no slam dunk murder case
Salt Life not salt line
JUST MANSLAUGHTER!?
She actually said he looks like a washed-up surfer…😂 _
(GOOD ONE_)that is so funny
This is Horrible😠
54 year old w an 18 yr Old 😳LAWRDyyyyy….lol 😂
boring…..
There is no such thing as an 18 year old woman when it is a 50 year old man involved.
The thing that gets me is the no attempt to get help. He just left her to suffer and die. I also Hate to bring the race card in but we all know if he was a black guy the charges would be much more severe. Very sad. Hes probably going to get a slight slap on the wrist or probation. Smh!!!
18 & 54? Perv!
He looks nuts
In his defence, he left his wallet, his ID card, etc. at the scene of the crime, plus, she was shot once only, and in abdomen, rather than the heart or the head. Sounds like Manslaughter to Me, as opposed to First Degree Murder. There was no meticulous effort done to cover the crime.
WTF SALT LIFE Not salt line
She looks way older than 18
"Parent's didn't like it at all." Um, yeah. I'd say so.
Salt Life not Salt Line
he looks like a washed up surfer….
Salt Life
Ok so it is Saltlife. I thought i heard wrong and went back
How does a hotel not hear gun shots, guests or employees?
Florida Man. Mannnnnn…..
I have a few questions. If he left his wallet and phone in the room how would he call for help? He was so intoxicated he just drove until he ran out of gas? Did he take the gun with him or leave it in the room? Also what is her father's job that he knows how to track her phone to the hotel? Was it her phone on a family plan that allows it to be located by other members of the family? Of course any parent would worry about an 18 year old dating a man that old, but is the daughter the type of person to answer calls from parents when she is on a romantic date at a hotel?
If the Police were not so lazy her life may have been saved.
we can fly to the moon and walk around on it…
we can send robots to mars to take some pictures…
what costs millions of dollars…
but we cannot solve the drug problem and all that comes with it, theft…murder…prostitution…human trafficking and so on
Why ?
Isn't it saltLIFE? Tragic story
