And so a lot of the parents were also calling and just saying, hey, you know, what's going on?

Where's my, do you know where my daughter is?

whatever, but it took a while for the coroner to confirm what had happened.

So we couldn't officially tell the parents right away because they had to wait for the officials to confirm it.

Bridget, when did you first see or speak with the girl's parents?

I was in touch with some of them over the phone the next day.

So early in the morning on October 18th, I...

They want to talk to you.

And I just broke down because that was like a realization to me.

Oh, my stars.

I cannot even imagine going down and trying to speak to the parents.

And the parents were there in the apartment, the place that you guys shared?

No, I didn't go back to that immediately.

never went back to that apartment.

I briefly said bye, but they had us in a hotel room on campus.

When you first saw the parents, what happened?

all the information that I knew, but it was a situation that I wouldn't wish on anyone.

It was really, really heartbreaking.

Coco, what do you recall?

Yeah, I, like Bridget said, remember the parents coming up, they came so fast.
