But you can't have it both ways. You can't use the "party house" excuse on both sides of the argument.

If it's a party house, and she's used to be people being in it at all hours, then she would have just put in air pods or something if people were being noisy.

Why not? Yes, you very much can have people coming in and out and still be skeptical or unsure.

Instead, she heard "weird" sounds (What would that even be in a party house?) and got out of bed, walked to the door, and opened it on THREE occasions. What would prompt a college student to get out of bed and look out of her door at that hour if she was used to people always being at her house.

Strange sounds. Being unsure of what she heard.

Furthermore, on the third trip to peek out of her door she was "frozen in fear" from what she saw, but just proceeded to go to sleep. Sorry, it's just weird. Possibly completely innocent, but still odd

This is where I am interested if alcohol was involved.

I don't see the point of randoms questioning her without totally knowing what went down and even then everybody reacts differently. I have a female friend that could easily be frozen in fear one moment and then immediately fall asleep. People are weird, but I don't think it's worth speculating on until we know much more. Not everybody reacts to fear by calling the cops as strange as that may seem. It will be interesting to see if she gets to tell her full story at some point, but now she has to be extra careful, because people are questioning her actions.

Yeah, you can. The house can be active regularly and you can still check in

We don't know if she didn't. You can hear things even if headphones are in, or feel vibrations in the house that might make you go check the living area.

To see if one of her roommates was awake in the living room, if there had been a food delivery, if the dog was loose...possibilities are endless

"Frozen in fear" is not the phrase that was used, so it probably shouldn't be continually repeated. Per the affidavit, Dylan was in a "frozen shock phase" when she saw the person walk near her door. Shock doesn't necessarily mean fear
