The police failed to show interest in pursuing her date Mathew as a suspect and refused to speak to them.

They further said he was a very nice guy and didn’t need to be investigated. It was like they were sticking up for him and was weird to hear that from a detective.

Apparently, Lauren met the older white man Matthew on the dating app Bumble. He is a 37-year-old design engineer who reportedly contacted the police about her death and was not detained for questioning.

Matthew in his statement told police that Lauren asked him to pay for a $40 manicure and invited him over to her apartment.

Moreover, he revealed that they drank tequila and later Lauren vomited in the bathroom. She then met her brother outside her apartment and got something from him.

After she returned, he claimed that she spent over ten minutes in the bathroom. Then they watched a movie together and she fell asleep on the couch.

He carried her to her bed and fell asleep beside her. When he woke up, he saw she was bleeding from her nose and not breathing, so he called 911.
