It doesn’t look good, no it doesn’t look good…I doubt she’ll get up and walk out of those woods. Don’t know why she stopped but I am sure she had a reason some creep took it as chick open season. Put her in the car, guess she didn’t get very far, ‘cause they found her shoes and her purse by the off ramp.
