True Crime with Rachel Shannon
SOLVED: A Serial Killer Obsession lead to the TWISTED murder of a Teenage Girl: Bobbi-Anne McLeod

She wasn't acting bizarre or seemed to be freaking out or anything like that.

There was no reason to think that she would have left the bus stop and just ran off on her own.

She literally looked just like any other ordinary person waiting for the bus.

Something that was concerning, however, was that I believe only about an hour after Bobby was last seen, a witness who actually saw Bobby at the bus stop found that she had left her cell phone and her AirPods at the bus stop.

The witness gave these items to the bus driver, hoping that they could be returned to their owner.

But this really concerned Bobby's family and the police because they knew that there was no way that she would have just left the bus stop without her phone.

And even if she just forgot it, like that's happened to me before where I'm like sitting on a bench or sitting on a chair, I put my phone next to me, I get up and it's not there anymore when I go to grab it.

But most people are grabbing for their phone pretty frequently, especially if you're just sitting on a bus, the first thing you do is sit down and take out your phone.

So even if she did forget her phone, she probably would have gotten off the bus at the next stop and then went back to the bus stop to get her stuff and then got back on the bus and went to her destination because she probably wouldn't have wanted to go to the city center and meet her boyfriend without her phone so that she could text him like, hey, I'm here.

So by that point, police were going off of the theory that maybe she was abducted from the bus stop because again,

There's no way she would have just left her stuff there.

There was also no reason to think that she would have run off.

Like I said, she had a very close family.

She loved her family.

There was nothing else going on in her life to make anybody think that she would have wanted to leave.

That same night, police took to the media to ask anybody who knows anything about where she could be to come forward and let police know what they know.

However, the investigation into Bobby's death, they searched for days and they couldn't find absolutely anything.

So they thought that this was going to be a very long, grueling investigation trying to pin down what happened.

But the investigation would be a lot shorter than what they expected.

and not for a good reason.
