I assume Friday afternoon/evening. I think I remember hearing the bailbond person say that he had called her parents not too long after she was arrested, and I'd assumed that she'd see the judge on Friday and not Saturday (and almost certainly not Sunday).

A person's demeanor before suicide isn't necessarily distraught, sad, or obviously concerning. There are rarely warning signs. I've seen instances where the person is outright happy and positive (knowing the decision is already made), or some who make the decision literally minutes before the act.

Not saying she definitely killed herself, or that there wasn't foulplay. Just that this isn't necessarily going to be proof of anything. Certainly, she never should have been put in this position in the first place (even down to being pulled over).

Sad to hear/read more and more about her last days/hours.
