When I was going through some of my notes on the transcripts I hadn't read all the way through yet, I noticed something Ford Shelley said that just really made me cringe, at the life ANS was leading.
She was like an object that her handlers just handed off to one another.
He said when he took her from L.A. to Myrtle Beach ... well, let me find it to quote it right ... here:
~~~~
" ... Anna was on methadone to help her, and we knew that because of course I transported her from Los Angeles to Myrtle Beach in May, and they give you strict instructions in the bag of all of her medications. ..."

>>>I mean, it sounded like a little kindergartener that you pinned her name on a piece of paper to the front of her coat with instructions in case someone finds her.
Some "they" had to give Ford a list of what to do for ANS! So, ANS couldn't be trusted to keep this instruction sheet herself or give it to anyone!
Like an older person who has Alzheimers....
So much for Anna administering her own meds.
Something else has always has bothered me about Shelley's story. He stated that Anna asked him to pick her up and bring her to Myrtle Beach. Wouldn't that mean Shelley had to go from Myrtle Beach to CA then back to Myrtle Beach with Anna? Why couldn't she go by private plane by herself? Why did she need an escort? Maybe she could not be trusted to be alone because of her being so drugged? Or maybe because she wasn't allowed to ever be alone because she might try to flee from HKS. But why would HKS let her go with Shelley and not send a bodyguard with her? Just some questions....
In my reading on procscribed methadone treatment, one of the things advised is that the patient may need to have someone else monitor/give the medication strictly, as the patient may not be able to do so effectively.
