Orange said: ‘When I told him I didn’t have my ID with me (to enter Mexico), they dropped me off at the hotel and said they’d be back in 15 minutes.’

‘That’s why I was so worried and scared, because it didn’t feel right. Fifteen minutes had passed and they were gone.

She said: ‘When they dropped me off at the hotel, I got in the shower, showered and lay on the bed, I was exhausted from the long hours, the long journey, so I ended up falling asleep.

“I woke up and it was already 5 in the afternoon.”

Orange said he asked hotel staff if the group had returned or made contact, but they had not.

“I called my boyfriend, I called Tay’s brother and told him something wasn’t right and I texted my roommate. I said that something is not right. 9 o’clock came, 12 o’clock came, midnight and one hour on Saturday morning.

‘At 10:23 a.m. is literally a few minutes before departure. I’m like there’s no way, I called the police immediately.

Orange described the moment he saw footage purporting to show the kidnapping, in which cartel members force their victims into a white truck.

Orange said: ‘I dropped the phone, my body tightened, I dropped the phone, my stomach was in knots and I began to pray for their return. I didn’t know much about the cartels and I started looking for videos and it was bad. I started thinking the worst.

She added: ‘I want the world to leave us alone and stop being mean. I want them to have a heart because everyone has a past. What happened to him was not right. She didn’t deserve it, she’s a beautiful person. When I spoke to Latavia yesterday, she said thank you. She told me thank you.
