She stated they went to the back bedroom to chill, and a few hours later, they walked out towards the front area of the trailer park to the community trailer. She said that Williams got into an unknown silver four-doored sedan, which drove him back to his trailer, so she messaged him regarding his whereabouts because they were supposed to meet at the community trailer.
