😒😠 ~ My wild guess is they got in a tiff. One or both of them were annoyed at the other, so they decided to separate on the hike. That’s why she was alone. As for people hinting that this guy might have done something to her because of this or that. I wouldn’t think so. This would be a terribly convoluted way to kill somebody, and I would have a low chance of success. Everything has to line up perfectly in order for him to kill her by making her so dehydrated that she just lays down and dies before she calls 911. And if he held her phone where she couldn’t use it, or something, then he would be risking houses in the area having a camera that catches him around her placing the phone by her dead body. But he’d be risking those security cameras, or somebody seeing him from the house/car or that was also in the area.

Was it the Officers responsibility to tell this adult that she needs to drink water? She was not a child. She was an adult and could have purchased water for the hike or did he stop her from doing that and drag her up that mountain?

I agree the guy is a total douche. But let's face it, Camelback keeps SAR busy every summer. When it's 102F at 6pm, as it was on that day, with mid-day temps much higher, those trails are brutal. Direct sun and heat reflecting of the rocks can easily push temps on the trail to 115. And it might be easy to find your way down when you've hiked there "more than I can count", but when you aren't familiar with the desert, everything kind of looks the same. On top of that, this gal looked as if she had never hiked in her life. People don't seem to realize what heat exhaustion/stroke do to your body. When your brain begins to overheat you lose the ability to process information and make rational decisions. You literally become unable to save yourself. On a cool day with plenty of water, she might have been able to find her way down the trail, it's obvious she was unable to manage that under summer conditions. However this happened, that cop clearly showed a terrible lack of judgement. He shouldn't be allowed to operated a motor vehicle, let alone carry a gun. My condolences to the family.

The simple fact that he allowed her to separate from him during a hike knowing she wasn't feeling well is FOUL. At the very least he prevents this type of suspicion.

First rule of hiking is the group stays together. If one turns back, everyone turns back. No exceptions. I've been disappointed a couple of times when the group has had to turn back but I've also been the reason a group has had to turn back. No matter what, you stay together.

Did you read this quote stated in the police report: "During a preliminary examination of the phone, investigators did see photos from the top of Camelback Mountain taken that day, and proof of a rideshare trip used by the witness when he got lost.” (Note:The witness is Dario Dizdar)(In a News Report it was stated Angela gave Dario her phone before she headed down the mountain to take photos of the TOP of the mountain for her facebook page. A day later, the reporters said she had her phone going down the mountain. ) The police said previously Angela had her phone when she left Dario. So how did photos of the TOP of Mt. Camelback get taken with Angela's phone when the firefighter seen on ABC/15 Arizona News stated Angela had her phone on her dead body...??? Dario's the one who said he was going to the TOP of MT. Camelback to take photos for Angela's Facebook page. So if she had her phone on her body when she died and Angela's phone was being "PINGED" by the Authorities looking for Angela, that did help them find her, this has to mean Dario met Angela when he came down from the mountain to give her phone back to her.....Right? This is CRUCIAL to know how the photos got in her phone. If Dario sent the photos from his phone to her phone, they need to check the day & time the photos were taken. They could be photos Dario or one of his friends took before July 30, 2021. Dario must have met her when he had the UBER. Where did the UBER take them?

[@snapmalloy5556]

A reporter simply made an assumption that he had her phone because of the reporting of taking photos for her. It's really that simple. It's not a conspiracy. It's bad reoorting. He was probably going to take photos and tag her or send then to her phone.

[@arizona6494]

​@@snapmalloy5556 ​ Here is what I saw on another thread....No Water, HUH!! sadly, Angela died in the trunk of his car, then Dario dropped her dead body in a backyard of a home where a homeowner was out of the state, but the cops were watching her home upon her request to keep an eye on her home. The reason Dario does not want anyone to see his car or go near it. Dario wanted & demanded Angela's phone code to delete all his naked photos and sex texts, but Angela refused to give her phone code to him to delete photos, so his wife could not see them. After Dario told Angela he was married on their mountain hike, Angela was FURIOUS HE LIED TO HER & she told Dario she was telling his wife & sending his wife all his texts and naked photos. So he forced Angela in to his car trunk by gunpoint, until she gave him her phone code, he shut the trunk on her with no water, knowing she was already heat exhausted. Angela died in the trunk.

Last, since you have no experience with extreme heat exhaustion, your misconception of her being rational enough to use her phone is understandable. But the fact is, people in extreme heat distress do not think coherently. Heat exhaustion literally lowers a person's IQ (testing has proven 40% or more) and their ability to think rationally. That is why they find people in the desert with a trail of clothes from their broken down car to their body. The victims literally remove their own shoes and socks in 160˚F sand as they are walking and looking for help; not quite rational behavior.
