Since you aren't a trained professional or have access to the investigation results, your very simplistic opinion amounts to nothing. You don't know what she went through because you weren't there. Just because her behavior in the aftermath of her ordeal doesn't match the media's view of what trauma victims are supposed to act like doesn't mean she's not a victim. Victims of violent crimes react to them differently and cope with them differently. Some turn to drugs. Some self-harm. Some never leave their homes. Some find an outlet to express their grief in a safe and controlled environment, like Hannah taking pictures for her social media accounts.
This is the problem with the media's portrayal of victims. No matter what, they're always doing something wrong. If they cry constantly and scream and demand justice, then they're passed off as overly sensitive, that they need to get over it. If they don't show any emotion (which is a common coping mechanism after experiencing a trauma), then they must not be suffering at all. People think that because she's on the news that her story is public property. It's not. It's hers and hers alone. How she copes with what happened to her is HER business, not the business of some uninformed IMDB user who can't even be bothered to spellcheck his replies to give his already-weak argument some shred of credibility. Spreading unfounded opinions that aren't based in any kind of facts aren't doing anything except hindering this poor girl's recovery and victimizing her all over again.

Do you have acces? If you don't, then your opinion is just as meaningless. If you do, then you're clearly biased and you need to shut up.
