thank you. i really struggle with eye contact and one of the things that i remember the most about eden, every time "look me in the eyes." and i'm like...dude... i can't do that! an incredible person. incredibly intelligent. he'll allow it.

they kept a very close eye on her to keep her from stepping out of line with who they wanted her to be. in the summer of 2022, she decided to apply private messages with me. and i was able to recover posts from her old twitter account, now known as x.

about what happened to her. roxie was one of eden's closest online friends. she had such a strong personality. at times, aggressive. eden's us visa expired after she dropped out of university, leaving her unable to work and earn money. i could ascertain through her

posts that she was having a hard time with her living situation, so i offered for her to come and stay with us. we put together, like, a whole wardrobe for her. this is your home. she was becoming a internet micro celebrity. she was getting a lot of followers, a lot of likes. so, one of the last really big tweets that she made, that was — it was a really funny post. it was — it's the very, very nice picture of her, versus the one on her id.

eden believed this tweet put her on the radar in texts to friends, eden confirms this person was michael pocalyko. you just don't want to see it. and just like that... he writes spy novels and has a private investigations company. he also has investments in saudi arabia.

he offered to fix the relationship with her family over the course of the next, like, four, five months, she started to trust him more. michael pocalyko was proposed to her as her ticket to asylum. i emailed michael to ask if he told eden to move to dc. he didn't respond, so i gave him a call. hi, michael. my name's katy ling.

0h, 0k. he hung up on me. michael and a lawyer named bader. the train in dc. a saudi lawyer named bader met me at the train station.

eden never mentions his full name — only bader — and that he's a lawyer helping with her asylum case. a search for lawyers named bader in dc led us search it again and a web page comes up, showing saudi lawyer bader nasser al—omair. in eden's messages, she mentioned her lawyer was harvard—educated. and found only one bader n alomair.

pressuring her to detra nsition. eden decided to leave. eden hit me up and said that she was running away.

"like, i got you. and she bought a megabus ticket. so she didn't come. whoever it was that showed up at her door absolutely terrified her. about eden's time in dc. did you guys stay in touch? she wanted to facetime. and before we did all that, she had sent me a picture of her view from the apartment where she was staying.

using these landmarks, i geolocated them to community college. directly opposite. from the apartment. i'm trying to find someone who knew eden while she was living here. so, we are currently going into one of the flats was staying in. doorbell chimes.

man: she had women's clothing, styled hair, i jewellery and make—up. she'd have to hide it all when bader came. bader made her get a haircut and grow out her beard. it seemed like it was bader�*s plan all along and bader al—omair together.

is she said that her lawyer told her that she couldn't the lawyer knew more than me. you can see these changes from the photos eden posted in the apartment.

another source shared his most recent work address with me. we're waiting outside the office to see if we can spot bader. and a distinctive numberplate. someone just arrived. let's go, let's go, let's go. go, go, go, go!

we have a visual confirmation, a work address and a numberplate. means foreign embassy staff. phone line rings. woman: thank you for calling the royal embassy of - automated message: voicemail system is unavailable. _ try again later. we couldn't get through. bader seems to be working as a private lawyer in the us,

i found a post from 2018 — a parent asking baderfor help. who handled these cases. he claims bader assisted saudi citizens involved in criminal

bader would come to the meetings with an arabic form, i remember in some cases, suspects would be there in the first hearing and when it came to the second to the saudi government. in these cases, we don't know what happened before it reached court — of two saudi students questioned over the killing of an american man in 2018. arrange their travel. they were later charged with murder.

on december 12th, 2022, eden flew back to saudi arabia she said that her parents, like, went into her room and, like, took her passport, took all the money that she was saving up, took, like, the hrt that she had hidden. over the next few months, eden posted less and less online. a few days later, she shared this video. you can hear a relative shouting at her.

it's over. hours later, eden posted what would become known as herfinal message. wakes me up and says,

"hayden, i have really bad news — "eden killed herself." all these wonderful things about her, all these there's a lot more there than just a trans person. she was my son's aunt. for asylum, there's a 99% chance she would have been successful. and find closure.

i want to believe that, as her final message, and bring justice. we want some kind ofjustice and prevent the people who did this to her from doing it to anyone else. i don't think i realised how- impactful her death really was. for anything she was. when it came to eden, - it was like, "i'm a bad person.
