    She spent thousands of dollars on this retreat and they dont want to talk o the police
  • @StirFryChicken
    They found her phone in the ocean?? That’s not a good sign…
  • Two weeks says alot😢 so they were staying in tents for a retreat? No way!
  • They wanted to keep it quiet to protect the tourism dollars for the retreat center and the island. Literally seems like no one cared that this woman was missing. 😢 I hope they find her. One week later they engage…….. just like the Riley gains case. The cops didn’t look until the story blew up and they look bad.

    Several yoga students told the mom, sister. Taylor was approached twice at different times. By two different men, walking to and from the other resort, close by. One man supposedly from Chicago, talked with her, when she was by herself. And one man seen, with a walky talky, standing on Taylor tent deck/platform. Who were those guys, stalking tourist also??? Did one of the yoga class students set Taylor up to be taken, kidnapped??? Its hard to trust people now days, ones you know and strangers! Some people have evil intentions! Not good if the yoga resort have no cameras, security. It is so dangerous to be staying, sleeping outside there, in tents, with no safety protection. 😮 Especially with other tourist, wandering around the beach area. I hope after the mom, sister, find out what happened to Taylor. They sue the yoga resort, and put them out of business! All that money they charge people, and its not safe for the tourist. Not ok! And then they are unconcerned about Taylor missing! I pray she is alive and ok. 🙏 Prayers for Taylor mom, sister, family members!

    The Yoga retreat leaders said that Taylor was last seen with a man from Chicago who was stalking her on two occasions. So do the math.
  • @Dadfromtexas
    There needs to be more urgency when people go missing. It’s really heartbreaking to see that people on that island aren’t treating this as a priority especially because her tent still has access to anyone!!!!
  • @yeah_right88
    They want to cover up the fact that there is something potentially dangerous that happened to this poor lady, they don't want ti scare off tourists.
  • @ark194
    She looks like a lovely person. This is all that matters to tourist areas...let's not bother the ppl on vacation.
  • @ms.apittman5557
    Lord, Lord, lord, please send help for this family so they can have peace of mind in Jesus name we pray. Continue to pray for her safety.
  • @Marigoldflute
    I swear I read a news story about another women who went on a yoga retreat in a South American country and she went missing too.....what's up with these retreats!?
  • @565cmac
    Praying for you, keep her story in the media. What about the embassy?
  • @rgrifferon
    You have to be vigilant no matter where you are, even in your own home. There are many evil elements out there.
  • @T2C47
    My heart goes out this family. I pray her daughter is found safe. This just doesn't make any sense. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🥺
  • @laurynorder3965
    Tell the whole story. Why are some ppl claiming this is a trans woman?
