Dominique Moran knew something was wrong as soon as she awakened that Friday morning. She turned on her smartphone and saw the first of what would become a barrage of texts and voicemails. "Are you okay?""I just wanted you to know there's a video of you going around with you and this person...""Hey, you're on Twitter." Only the night before, Moran was an unknown 23-year-old student in St. Paul, Minnesota. She had moved there from Southern California to attend college on a softball scholarship. Living alone in a new city, she worked at a Chipotle to make ends meet and attended a Lutheran church.
— Hamdia Ahmed November 19, 2018 Moran ended up seeing some good in the online world. She has since exchanged messages with Hallwarth. She says they share a Christian faith."It was a totally unreal experience that this person had this urge out there just to dig a little deeper," she said."He didn't really have to do that. He did that for a stranger."Her experience brightened even more. Chipotle called her. They wanted to know if she wanted her job back.
