I doubt they'll talk about the recent death of Lam though on the show.

She looks like she was tripping on something.

Does anybody *really* think that there was no foul play involved? For real? She just jumped in there and pulled the lid closed on herself??

I had it DVR'd, but I had so many other shows recorded & more being recorded that I just had to erase that one. Maybe a rerun will come up soon. Keep your eyes peeled.

OK, so I watched the TV show, Horror of the Cecil Hotel show featuring the Elisa Lam story. Here's how the show portrayed things:

- It was never said that she had any kind of mental issue nor taking any meds

- It said all the hotel employees were interviewed, which it didn't say how many that was, but it showed them interviewing 2 on the (just hour-long) show. They really made the front-desk check-in guy to be a suspicious type

- They portrayed the access to the water tank to be quite a feat to get to & didn't say anything about it being open to the public or tampered w/ in any way.

- It didn't mention anything about any paranormal forces being involved

- It did show the elevator video showing Elisa acting peculiar & there was mention about a 1-min lapse in the video, but the police don't think the video was tampered w/

- If she was found naked, the show didn't say if there were clothes nearby.

- Her cell phone was never found

- About a month after her death, a mysterious post on her blog/website showed a tarot symbol meaning that a person wanted to be alone in solitude. The police thought that was like a mockery from the killer to hint that possibly she wanted to die alone (maybe to look like she committed suicide)

- The coroner report just said accidental drowning w/ no evidence of any other method of death (NOT strangling, drugs in system, etc.) This shows she's alive one minute & drowned the next, but I don't believe she was in some mental state to just jump in the tank herself.

- It did show that she met some seemingly nice/helpful guy when she first arrived to L.A., who gave her his # to genuinely be a friend if she needed help finding herself around town. They interviewed him, but he proved he wasn't in L.A. anymore around the time she was killed.

I personally think some seedy hotel guest character (& there were a LOT) OR a hotel employee killed her & dumped her body up there late at night & they just never caught the guy. Overall, it was a well-explained episode & I hope they find out who did it some day.
