Selena Garcia had made some poor decisions, but her close-knit family hoped she was moving her life in the right direction.

It was October 2022, and Selena had recently just gotten out of jail. She had been charged with trespassing and with lying to a police officer. Needless to say, Selena was thrilled to be out after spending more than 30 days there.

She was released on the evening of October 6, 2022, and her sister texted her right away. They were close, and her sister wanted to check in on her.

On the night of October 7, her sister texted her again, asking what she was up to. Selena answered saying she was going out with friends.

The next day, once again, her sister texted her. She saw that Selena read the message, but never texted back.

Every subsequent text message her sister sent in the next couple of days was read, but no response was given.

What was going on? Her sister had an eerie feeling because this sort of thing never happened before, the two always texted back and forth and kept in touch, no matter what.
