One Name Kept Coming Up
Police immediately started interviewing Emma’s friends and family that day, and according to Merritt, the same name kept coming up over and over again. “Everybody kept giving us the same Riley Gaul because of their relationship, because they had seen the way that Riley had treated her, the way he’d talk to her.”
Meanwhile, Riley took to his own social media to mourn Emma, with a long Facebook post and multiple Tweets. In one Tweet, he wrote, “Rest easy now, sweetheart. I love you forever and always.”
