Chapter 58
Maple none of this is her fault.
Dylan: GemmaPopsicle55 wants to know who took the photos, suggesting the obvious answer is one of her parents. While RickyDetroit18 takes it one step further, saying he thinks Bodi sold those photos of Ella on the dark web, and that’s why Selena was so mad.
Maple: I hope not, because that’s pure evil.
Dylan: Well, however they got there, we’ve reported it to the ICAC Taskforce via the NCMEC cyber tipline, so hopefully someone will be working to take them down. And yeah, Jeffersondopeski, we know they pop back up as quickly as they’re taken down, but we’ve got to do something.
Maple: And we’re doing something else tonight.
Giving you another way to find Ella. I was sent a post that @Tellatttale made on TikTok yesterday.
Her actual name is Tamsin, and she’s a tattoo artist in Austin.
Maybe she’s online now, so hi Tamsin if you are.
Tamsin inked a tattoo for Ella on her eighteenth birthday, just two weeks before she disappeared, and she’s posted a picture of the design.
So here it is for you guys too. A lotus flower, inked right in the center of Ella’s upper back.
Dylan: If you don’t already know, lotus flowers are a symbol of overcoming adversity, because they begin life in mud but grow on the top of the water.
Maple: Which is beautiful symbolism, but we need to find Ella before she drowns.
