I'm trying really hard not to come to this conclusion, but the tweet thread doesn't make any sense.
>I didn’t wanna go home, so I spent the night somewhere and just said I’d figure it out in the morning.
So they stayed somewhere and said they would figure it out in the morning. Ok, that's reasonable.
>this morning while I was asleep I had someone close to me check my car
How did they tell someone to search the car while they were asleep? They said they would figure it out "in the morning" when they were awake. Some time between deciding to figure it out in the morning and waking up, they told someone to search their car?
If it didn't happen, being asleep while someone searched your car would be the reason why they threw the device away without your permission. If you were awake when they threw it away, that would be a lot more difficult to believe.
