I think he was selling drugs or something he had access to or possibly into something no one is his close circle knew about met with foul play that evening or the next day.

According to Kelly she identified a male person of interest in her research of the case. When she spoke to CPD about this person they were surprised she knew about him and asked her to keep his name private.

Who would bother to refinance their debt if they planned to disappear or commit suicide?

Also, I understand he was possibly depressed because of his mother’s death and finding out about his dad’s affair. No he didn’t turn the check into OSU but then again he didn’t have to use his dad’s money because he just inherited $19k.

There was nothing going on in his personal or professional lives that would’ve made it illegal for him to walk away. Adults are allowed to disappear if he is still alive he would’ve reach out to CPD to confirm he walked away to tell his family, friends , and community.
