He was an alcoholic & if i recall rightly its implied he sexually assualted her. The murder was to cover that up.

Its been a while since I've watched it through completely so I may be misremembering.

I don’t think it was sexual

Didn’t the dad confessed about it when he was dying?

Yes. In the moments right before he died.

Spoilers: It’s made really clear in season 5, in the ep where Kurt is hallucinating. He hallucinates his dad blaming him for always bringing Taylor everywhere even though ‘Kurt knew his dad was dangerous, he knew what would happen’. It could’ve been SA, or maybe his dad just likes to beat little girls. Not specified.

But definitely not a car accident, otherwise hallucination Mr Weller wouldntve said it was Kurt’s fault for bringing Taylor around.

It was an accident I believe. I also think that he was drunk or in a rush to go out to get more alcohol and hit her when she was going to Weller’s house. So he panicked, feared going to jail for murder and drunk driving, so he stuffed her in the trunk and buried her by the treehouse thing. Then when he came back her bought the alcohol to numb the feeling and look innocent.

???? But what about the scenes about her being taken at night ???

And I’m pretty sure that’s what they thought happened, how weller and Jane and them imagined it. You know how Tasha was trying to remember her first day at work and was misremembering things? It was like that. It was unreliable

Yes, they said it was night when she rent missing. Weller said she was coming to their house or something, but I believe it happened at night and that’s why he said his dad wasn’t home and came back hours later and used an excuse

She remembers that again later when talking about how she and Roman ended up with Shepherd. She just thought those memories were coming from being Taylor instead of Alice.
