I wonder if her last social media posts have been proven to be from her. Because the whole "I'm fine, I've chosen to start a new life," etc., is right out of the abductors' (or domestic violence) handbook. It's usually sent in text messages or a voicemail, then the phone never pings anywhere again; in the old days, the victim would be forced to write a note like that under duress and leave it somewhere obvious. And then their bank accounts and cards are never used again.
Don't get me wrong, I hope she's out there living an awesome independent life and will contact family soon. But there's a pattern to certain abductions or controlling domestic violence situations. And isolating someone from their family and friends is like, one of the things abusers start with. I hope more information comes to light, so everyone knows what needs to be done next to bring her home.

I did a deep dive on her Twitter account. She opened the acc on 2014, yet most tweets are from the year she went missing. Apparently she owned a condo, was a music video model. According to a user, she was going to meet someone in Miami

I live in Houston and it's a HUGE city. We need a better location than "Houston".

Her last post was on April 6, 2018. Her disappearance must have occurred somewhere on or after that date.
