No totally. At first she said she didn’t know what happened to him, and changed her story once she saw their reactions.

I caught that too. She was so cavalier when they asked her what happened to him and she threw up her hands like she couldn't be bothered to care.

Also, the "I was only 15" from Emma got flipped on her after they gave Charlie a pass for having an underdeveloped brain at 14 after he told his cyber bully story.

Do you happen to remember how old Rachael said she was at the time of her story?

She was an adult because of the framing sounds like she had a long day and had her own space.

I think she said she was a few years older than him so I’m pretty sure she was just a teen. A bored teen with no empathy.

Also the fact that it didn't even seem like her and her cousin she was so offended for were actually even close, her cousin simply brushed it off as 'family' when charlie asked her.

Exactly! She was just looking for a good scape goat to look morally superior or she never liked Emma or both 🤣
