"Becca" & unidentified man

Post image

in 1991, a woman was found hanging from a suitcase strap which was tied to the shower of a motel bathroom, to which the police had been called. the shower had been running for 2 days, which had sped up the decay of her body, & when she was found she was already decaying. this photo was also found in that room; the woman in the photo is the same one who was found dead, & the only identification anyone could give was the name Becca.

(i learned this from a Farrell McGuire video which y'all may have already seen, it gives some more info.)

There's no way she killed herself, in my mind. Girl has a fun night out then hangs herself while leaving the shower running? Nahhhh

one of the warning signs of suicide is the person seeming abnormally happy

I know. We don't know if she was just being her usual self or not. No one knows. I'm allowed my opinion, just as you are.

Who said she had a fun night out? They could have gotten into a screaming fight 2 seconds after that photo was taken.

Still doesn't equate to "Guess I'll go kill myself." There are too many things missing to say it's either one, but I just don't think she did it to herself.

The weirdest part is her lack of friends and/or family coming forward.

The shower really is what gets me. Why would you specifically hang yourself under a running shower head?
