re: Amy Bradley is missing!

I found this interview with him
https://www.ladbible.com/entertainment/netflix/amy-bradley-yellow-netflix-royal-caribbean-612774-20250718
quote:
In this it was revealed that he is a pastor in Grenada where they tracked him down and is an exorcist who runs a church which is 'little more than a shack on the side of the mountain’.
He agreed to his first interview in 20 years, giving his recollection of what happened the night she went missing.
He recounted how the band had finished playing at midnight and that Amy had come up and complimented their set, adding that this wasn't unusual for him as 'many persons would compliment or talk about my way of entertaining'.
Following a quick shower after his set, Douglas said he spotted Amy again in the ship's Viking Lounge and said hello, 'but she was smoking a lot and that's not something I know or like'.
Later he invited her onto to the dance floor, explaining 'I was only going to be able to dance maybe one or two songs because of the time', with him having to be out of the passenger areas by 1am.
He added: "About five minutes to 1am, I said, 'Look, I have to go.' And that was my last conversation and the last time I saw [her]."
When asked directly about the women who claimed to have seen him with Amy at 6am the next morning, he simply says: “No, didn’t happen.”
He added that his key card proved that he did not leave his room again after retiring for the night around 1am.
He said the next morning the hotel manager called him at 7am and asked him: "Do you have a woman in your room?"
"I said, 'No.' And I ask, 'Why?' And he said, 'The woman you were talking to last night at the club, we can't find her.'"
He was then told not to leave his room as the investigation into Amy's disappearance began.

I still think she fell overboard. Not sure how far off the coast they were, but even just a quarter mile off that’s a tough swim that early and being intoxicated. Not to mention the height of the fall and your mental state knowing you fell off the ship.
Has there been any mention about how she would have gotten off the ship if she did voluntarily? Believe the Navy guy mentioned she left the ship to get drugs. I’ve gone on cruises recently and you have to provide some sort of ID whether it’s your cruise card or passport to both get off the ship and back on. Was that a thing back in 1998?
She wasn’t seen on any sort of ship camera the morning before they made it to port and started to let passengers off?

Like I said, the show left all that out because if you have evidence he was in his room, you don't have a show. He was the show's main suspect.

Yep. I wasn't convinced that he had anything to do with it even with all the omissions.
She almost certainly fell or jumped overboard.

I'm surprised the family wasn't the first one to disembark so they could see if she left the ship on her own - because at that point her leavening on her own would have been the most likely outcome. The gangway is only about 50 feet wide there and they could have seen everyone exit the ship and then go from there.
I think they were more focused about getting the PA announcement more than thinking she was getting off the ship. She left her shoes behind and such. Probably more thinking along the lines that she went get breakfast and explore the ship.

I have a few thoughts.
One, I think she definitely fell or jumped. I lean with an accidental fall because the only thing missing were her cigarettes and lighter. Why jump with those?
The dad said the balcony door was open a foot or two. If you have ever been on a cruise and had a balcony room, you know what happens when you try opening the door to leave the room. It creates a major vacuum with a ton of win and noise. No way all 3 of them would have slept through that.
I don’t buy these statements of fact that she would have washed ashore because of the proximity to land and the currents. That’s probably the most likely scenario but in no way is that guaranteed. People have drowned near the shoreline because of rip currents and never been found and they were WAY closer to land than she would have been.
Yellow was made out to be a womanizer and jerk but he sounded very believable on that phone call, IMO.
And finally, I think the message in a bottle was a huge foreshadowing to what she was thinking about doing. If she got back with the girlfriend she may have never done it (if you go with the jumping theory).
ETA: I’ve seen a LOT on the internet about the cruise director and how horrible he was. I didn’t get that AT ALL. I think he was very logical and spoke like someone responsible for 2500 people on a cruise. When family reported her missing it had only been 30 minutes. It’s impossible to search an entire ship in that time, especially if the missing person is moving around. I’ve spent hours trying to find people on a cruise before FINALLY spotting someone. I know it wasn’t crowded at that time but you have so many floors and the thing is 1000 ft long and the person may not be staying in place. There’s no way they could do anything at that time and if she got off at port she would have scanned and they would know. I don’t think the cruise line did anything wrong.

Agreed. I felt like he was fairly logical and not the villain this thread has made him out to be.

I watched it. She jumped or she got in a fight with a family member and was knocked or thrown overboard and they covered it up. Only options imo.
It's amazing the son and dad were really never felt to be thought of as suspects in the entire doc, but all these random other people were. Netflix should be ashamed for airing all these random theories also.

I thought this could be it as well. But if that was the case I don’t think they’d work so hard over decades to keep the story alive.

The $1,000,000 question for me is since they still have her bags packed: Did they compare all the photos of various shoes she was wearing on the vacation vs. an inventory of shoes that they still had in her bags?
No one is going barefoot into the hallway or public areas of a cruise ship. Late 1990's Peppermint Patty was at the very least going to wear her Birkenstocks.
In my opinion, the parents are still in denial that she was Lesbian. Very much having to play up how all the Waiters and Strangers were looking at Amy.
The Parents just want to make sure the narrative never reflects back to them pressuring her not to be happy with women (and potentially driving her to drinking/drugs and eventually suicide) but instead how great they are for searching for her thousands of miles away from where she had allegedly been seen.

Could the bass player dude sue for defamation?
Guy was never arrested, passed a polygraph, and zero actual evidence linking him to the disappearance. Netflix went as far as turning his daughter against him forcing a phone call when he had nothing to do with it.
Could you imagine if you showed up on one of these documentaries out of the blue one day for sex trafficking because you briefly flirted with a gay chick on a cruise 20 years prior? That’d be a shitty Monday morning going into the office.

She went overboard. Don't know how, but that is what happened.
Posted on 7/28/25 at 11:55 pm to mattchewbocca
I don’t think she jumped. I’ve been on 1 cruise and obviously not an expert but it’s not exactly easy to jump the rail. An accidental fall is possible I guess, but no one in adjacent rooms heard a scream, or saw a blur of humanity, nothing?
I’m usually a “simplest answer is correct” guy, but the prostitute pictures are too much for me. I think she was drugged+smuggled off the boat and trafficked.

The small patio table was pulled next to her balcony rail and her footprints were on it. If she stood on the table she could have very easily climbed over the rail and jumped.

Very clear she went overboard
The people that claim to have seen her are lying or mistaken
The only pause is the picture that shows a match to her, but that kind of thing isn't admissible in court because it is completely junk science

Maybe so. I’m not married to any theory.
But the Curaçao coast guard guys were very adamant that something would wash up, and nothing did. I’d think they’d want her to have had an accident and nothing nefarious with their country, but they were quite firm. They could be wrong tho

I think she left on her own and didn’t know what she was getting into. Plus traffic victims are often drugged and become addicted.
Also the combo of the website creator and the communications guy tracking IP addresses was very interesting. Especially tracking spikes in website engagement over the years on key dates; holidays, birthdays etc. All of that was around Curaco or another close island I believe. Why would a random person care what her family was posting all the years later?
I’d also assume the FBI wouldn’t be wasting resources for all these years if they weren’t pretty confident she didn’t jump/fall; but seeing how they operate now that may be giving them too much credit.

This. It would either have to be her or someone she grew very close with. Why would kidnappers do it?

Wasn't her camera also missing? Probably climbed on the table to take a picture of the sunrise and fell over the railing.
