How do you know.

She said her abductor had a knife and duct tape (and other things). If she was trying to be a recluse why make up the abductor story? Why add the knife and tape to the story. Common sense says she was trying to stage her own abduction.

A recluse goes away and lives somewhere else even if he/she doesn't tell other people where they are going. Why leave without a coat? Why leave the door open? She clearly wasn't going for a nice little jaunt in the marshes!

DOn't forget the cold medicine. She had taken it, she bought it, said the "abductor" had made her take it. (It was at the scene.

I think she may have a long-standing cold medicine abuse problem. It would explain a lot.

FWIW it causes dissociative states. She had actual injuries in Feb, so that might have been from a seizure that kind of drug abuse can cause.
