Authorities have been searching for Talinia Galloway since she suddenly vanished from her home in Wagoner on April 7. In a Facebook post allegedly written by 57-year-old before she disappeared, Galloway said that while she was battling coronavirus, she had no intention of going to the hospital.

“Those of you who know me well know I have DNR orders in my health directive, and I’m not going to let anyone intubate me,” it read.

“So I’ve made arrangements to spend some quality alone time at one of my favorite hideaways at one of my favorite lakes, and I’ve booked it for the remainder of this week.”

Authorities have been searching for Talinia Galloway since she suddenly vanished from her home in Wagoner on April 7. In Facebook post allegedly written by 57-year-old before she disappeared, Galloway said that while she was battling back coronavirus, she had no intention of going to the hospital.

During a press conference on Friday, Wagoner County Sheriff Chris Elliott announced that dismembered remains discovered in a freezer dumped in a wooded area of Polk County, Arkansas earlier this month had been identified as Galloway’s. He said a witness back in June had reported seeing a truck and white cargo trailer driving into a secluded area near the Ouachita National Forrest.

Immediately suspicious, the witness opted to follow the vehicle. When she finally caught up to it, no one was inside, but she said there was a odor coming from inside and a foul-smelling liquid pooling nearby. She reported the the truck to authorities and assumed the matter had been resolved when she did not hear back from them.

On January 14, the same witness discovered a freezer in the woods with its lid taped shut. She again notified authorities and provided the license plate number she gave officers back in June

Elliott said the tag number checked back to Galloway.

Bommeli, who had been previously arrested for obstructing the investigation and destroying evidence in the case, was out on bond and located living in Wisconsin. She was taken into custody on Thursday and will face first-degree murder charges when she returns to Oklahoma.

The Roommate is a 2011 American psychological thriller film directed by Christian E. Christiansen and written by Sonny Mallhi. The film stars Leighton Meester, Minka Kelly, Cam Gigandet, Danneel Harris, Matt Lanter, and Aly Michalka. It is inspired by the 1992 film Single White Female. It was originally planned to be released on September 17, 2010,^[3] but was moved to February 4, 2011.^[4]

Plot[edit]

Iowan Sara Matthews is starting her freshman year of college in Los Angeles. She meets party girl Tracy, frat boy Stephen – her love interest – and Rebecca, her shy college roommate who bears an uncanny resemblance to her. The girls begin to bond and Rebecca learns that Sara had an older sister, Emily, who died when Sara was nine, and an ex-boyfriend, Jason, who keeps calling her in attempts to reconcile.

Over time, Rebecca's obsession with Sara grows, which causes her to drive away anyone who could come between them. Claiming that she is a bad influence, Rebecca attacks Tracy in the shower, pins her down, rips out her belly-button ring, and threatens to kill her unless she stays away from Sara. Tracy moves to another dorm, fearful of Rebecca. An old friend of Sara's named Irene invites Sara to move in with her when Sara's cat Cuddles is discovered by an RA. Rebecca kills Cuddles, lying to Sara that the cat ran away, and inflicts injuries upon herself and says she was assaulted by a thug. Feeling sympathetic, Sara decides to spend Thanksgiving with Rebecca. When Sara's fashion design professor, Roberts, kisses her, Rebecca plans to get the professor out of the picture by seducing him while recording their dialogue on a tape recorder to make it sound like he was trying to rape her.

During her Thanksgiving stay, Sara overhears a conversation between Rebecca and her father, hinting Rebecca has had trouble making friends in the past. After Rebecca's mother mentions that Rebecca is supposed to be taking medication, Sara and Stephen find a bottle of unused Zyprexa pills, used to treat schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. Sara decides to move in with Irene; however, that evening at a club, Rebecca seduces Irene and they go back to Irene's place. The following morning, Sara goes to Irene's apartment, but she is not there. Meanwhile, Rebecca gets Sara's sister's name tattooed in the same place on her breast as Sara. Alarmed, Sara finally realizes Rebecca is obsessed with her and removes her belongings from the dorm. Jason arrives at Sara's dorm and slips a note under her door, saying that he wants to see her. Rebecca intercepts the note, and disguises herself like Sara. She then goes to Jason's hotel room and stabs him to death.

Sara receives a text message from Irene saying she needs to meet with her right away, and she calls Stephen so he can meet her there. She arrives and finds a gagged Irene handcuffed to the bed. Rebecca reveals herself and points a gun at Sara, proclaiming her love and loyalty, before revealing tearfully she was responsible for what happened to Tracy, Cuddles, Professor Roberts, Irene, and Jason, and that she did it all to win Sara's friendship. Rebecca moves to smother Irene, and Sara attempts to stop her. Sara tries to call for help, but the phone is dead. Bound and helpless, Irene pleads for Sara to save herself. Sara tries to get out the window to get help. Rebecca breaks back into the room and aims the gun at the cuffed and helpless Irene, only to be stopped by Stephen who briefly disarms her but is knocked unconscious. Climbing back into the room, Sara is strangled by an enraged Rebecca, who is eventually stabbed by Sara with a box cutter, killing her.

Sara moves back into her dorm and moves the extra bed out of her room with the help of Stephen, proclaiming that she does not want anyone as a roommate for a while.

Keith Staskiewicz of Entertainment Weekly gave the film a D, saying it 'is really just a far-below-par thriller that desperately wishes it were a different movie – a longing it shares with the audience,' but praises Meester for bringing 'the slightest trace of something fascinating to her role. When she smiles, it's perfectly located between a sweet display of affection and a snarling warning.'^[10]Peter Travers of Rolling Stone gave it a half star, stating that 'The Roommate – the umpteenth uncredited remake of 1992's Single White Female – sucks bad, real bad' and that 'Danish director Christian E. Christiansen has no flair for suspense'.^[11] Meester's performance garnered praise from other top critics, including the Los Angeles Times, which states: 'Here, her performance often has the feeling of a sports car in neutral. When she punches it for quick changes of tone from manic to wounded or around the bend, she shows how much more she is capable of.'^[12]

Box office[edit]

Opening in 2,534 theaters, the film grossed $15.6 million its opening weekend to take first place at the box office. Its distributor estimated that females under the age of 21 accounted for two-thirds of its audience.^[13] By the end of its run, the film grossed $37.3 million in the United States and Canada and $15.2 million in other countries for a worldwide total of $52.5 million.^[2]

Accolades[edit]

Controversy[edit]

Some of the promotional posters and displays for the film used the Christy Administration Building from Southwestern College in Winfield, Kansas as its backdrop. The college administration voiced concern that permission to use the photograph of the building was not properly obtained and investigated the legality of its use.^[16]

Primary concerns hinged that the image of the college (particularly the image of the building) could be damaged, while other concerns were that the college's primary iconic image was being used for promotion of an unrelated business venture.^[17]

The Roommate Scandal Mac Os X

Though the film successfully earned $15.6 million in receipts to top the box office during its debut weekend in the United States, concerns continued. By that time, the image of the building had been replaced on the film's official website and on subsequent promotional material. The photo of the building reportedly was licensed from iStockPhoto based in Calgary, Alberta. As of February 8, 2011, no lawsuits had been filed but discussions had taken place.^[18]

Students at the school reported 'mixed feelings' about the topic – some believed that it may have been helpful for the college and others reported that they saw how it could have been harmful to the school's image.^[19]

Home media[edit]

The Roommate was released on Blu-ray Disc, DVD, and digital download in North America on May 17, 2011.^[20]
