The place where she was found looks to be a few miles out of town, and there was no known reason for her to be out there.
I've heard that someone who works at the VFW lived on the same road. I've also heard someone she was texting lived out there. My theory is that she left the VFW, realized she didn't have her phone, went back for it, and found the bar closed. So she went to the manager's house to see if he had it. It's late, and dark, and she's rushing to get there before he goes to bed. She probably came up on the intersection too fast and didn't stop in time. OR, if she was traveling south on Yankeetown Road, she may have swerved to miss a deer and lost control. I'm a little unclear about which way she was traveling. And we may never really know for sure.
