“She died and covered herself with a blanket and life vests then crawled under a bed.”

Safest place to be on a cruise ship.

I imagine the stepbrother had been watching a lot of porn.

So, did that time not really take place in the real world, or has the real world changed by due to its turning away from the firm belief in a creator & Lord?

I think that there was a brief period of time maybe the early part of the 20th Century where news reporting was more idealistic. Perhaps as a reaction to the Yellow Journalism period of 19th Century.

But in reality my read of the history journalism is that sensationalism in news has always been more of the general rule.

It is simply economics. Sensationalism (if it bleeds it leads) sells.

There were at least a dozen in the buffet line when they all noticed at the same time—there was only one pork cop left in the steamer tray.

Dirty Laundry (Eagles)

I make my living off the evening news
Just give me something-something I can use
People love it when you lose,
They love dirty laundry
Well, I coulda been an actor, but I wound up here
I just have to look good, I dont have to be clear
Come and whisper in my ear
Give us dirty laundry
Kick em when they’re up
Kick em when they’re down...

I’ve seen people do some crazy stuff on booze. And being a young lady like that someone could have slipped her some drugs in a drink.

Supposedly passengers saw this girl and one of her stepbros at the theater prior to her death. They said they appeared to be in a heated argument.

I am guessing he had a thing for her and she refused him.

I think the autopsy will clear a lot of this up. Was she clothed? Was she suffocated or strangled? My guess is no blood visible because there would be no use stuffing her under the bed if it wasn’t cleaned up.

God killed the two sons of Judah (ancestor of Jesus!) who wasted seed on the ground because they didn't want to "spoil" the beautiful Tamar with pregnancy. A lot to unpack there that points to two major problems we have today (porn - sex only for selfish pleasure, and childlessness).

Anna Kepner doesn’t look like a “teen.” She is obviously white.

I don’t like airplanes either. I love sailing and being on the water but the ides of one of those monster cruise ships is repulsive. I don’t like planes either but I fly a lot because the trains don’t go to Việt Nam.

She’s wearing braces in the photo. Aren’t they usually gone by 20-something?

Not always. Especially if she got them put on a little later than is usual. It is interesting that she didn’t have the more unnoticeable type braces.

I know, it’s untrustworthy national media, but I accept the 18-yo figure, as reported.

Not always. Sometimes 30s women get them. By that time men would rather have slightly wonky teeth than go through braces.
