The furious stepmom of the 15-year-old girl killed by a Saudi man who fled the US is questioning the man's bail deputy's involvement in his disappearance.
Investigators believe Abdulrahman Semeer Noorah used an illicit passport and cut off his ankle tracker to skip his $1million bail for the manslaughter charges of Fallon Smart who was hit by his gold Lexus when he illegally swerved around stopped traffic letting the teenager cross the road in Portland, Oregon in August 2016.
Fresh claims say the Saudi citizen, then 21, fled on a private jet with the help of the Saudi government after being given permission from his bail release supervisor, Deputy Kari Kolberg, to study at college that afternoon.
Reports say Kolberg only learned of his disappearance after returning from a weekend trip where she didn't have cell phone service. Smart's stepmom is suspicious of those claims.
'So Kari Kolberg gave him special permission to study on campus and he goes missing that same day?' Tiffany Quincy said on Facebook Tuesday. 'Oh, and she is out of cell range and nobody else is monitoring him that day? Somethings not right.'
Officials believe Abdulrahman Sameer Noorah fled the US on a private jet with help from the Saudi consulate last year after being given permission to leave his home by his bail release supervisor. He was accused of manslaughter for the death of Fallon Smart, 15

Officials say they are doing everything they can to get Noorah back to the United States after he fled on board a private jet with the help of his country's consulate.
Noorah has denied the manslaughter of the 15-year-old.
The Portland Community College man went missing June 10, 2017 – just two weeks before he was due to stand trial - and the Saudi government confirmed to US Marshals this July that Noorah had returned to Saudi Arabia seven days after he went missing.
He is believed to have packed a bag, was picked up by a private black GMC Yukon XL car that drove him two miles to a sand-and-gravel yard, then he cut off the tracking device on his ankle before beginning his journey back home.
KSA has no extradition agreement with the USA.
'We're doing everything we can to get him back,' Eric Wahlstrom, a supervisory deputy US Marshal in Oregon told Oregon Live.
Investigators used sniffer dogs to search a nearby park and the location where Noorah's monitor was eventually found. Then surveillance footage of the vehicle he's believed to have escaped in corroborated the story according to a GPS log.
Noorah skipped bail in Portland, Oregon after the Saudi consulate posted $100,000 bond in 2016.
Yet, despite the luxurious transport home, and generous bond posted by his consulate, it doesn't appear that Noorah's parents are influential.
His mother is a kindergarten teacher, and his father owns a trailer business, according to a report by his Deputy Kolberg, Willamette Week reports.
However, Saudi Arabia often posts bail for its citizens arrested in the US, including $2million for Ziyad Abid, a Saudi student who was accused of murdering a bar owner in Missouri in 2013, and later that same year, they paid $5 million bail for a Saudi princess accused of human trafficking.

Police found a bag packed with clothes, a cell phone and computer at his home.
No flights through the US or Canada showed up with his name leading investigators to believe Saudi Arabia gave him a passport under a different name to cross a border.
The consulates in Los Angeles and Washington declined to comment to Oregon Live about Noorah.
Noorah's bail had been raised from $280,000 to $1million as he was deemed a flight risk. But it didn't stop him from evading the law as the consulate provided posted $100,000, the 10 per cent needed in the state to be released.
As the money was given directly to him it meant the KSA government was not responsible for the full amount owed. However authorities cannot find the individual to collect anyhow.
According to records, the country worked with private investigators to handle his case before he vanished.
Her family didn't want Noorah to get bail for fear he would flee the country which he later did

He had to hand over his passport when he paid the amount on September 11, 2016 and remained under house arrest at the home of his US host Terri Stanford as he continued his studies on a scholarship.
The Saudi Arabian embassy financially supported Noorah with monthly payments of around $1,800.
His host – who has seen many exchange students come through her door - described him as 'one of the kindest boys I've ever met'.
Two years ago she said she was worried about his 'mental stability' and 'declining health' as he stopped eating, sleeping and being social before he was due to stand trial.
'He suffers immensely from remorse and the effects of his trauma,' she wrote in a letter to his lawyer.
Stanford said Noorah began to take prescription medicine and was hospitalized on more than one occasion. She claimed eventually 'he couldn't function' and she believed 'there was no way he was going to survive jail'.

It came after his grandmother passed away, his mother became ill and pressure mounted with his exams due to take place a week before the trial start date.
Two of his attorneys declined to speak to Oregon Live.
Multnomah County prosecutor Shawn Overstreet agreed 'he was not doing well' at the time.
Noorah was driving around 50 mph or 60 mph on a suspended license when Smart was killed.
Fallon's family are outraged that he fled after pleas to deny him bail.
Her uncle wrote on Facebook last year: 'It seems to me, based on previous facts and strange occurrences, there are strings being pulled for this man. I am not making accusations, but am simply stating facts, and what one might speculate based on those facts.'
In 2012, the Saudi government paid bail for Oregon first-degree rape suspect Ali Hussain Alhamoud, who was also accused of other sex crimes. On the same day he flew back to his country.
In 2015, KSA paid the $100,000 for a male accused of rape in Utah. Monsour Alshammari was later found trying to flee at the US-Mexico border.
Saudi Arabia is also believed to have helped a squad of 15 men leave the country on a private jet the same day journalist Jamal Khashoggi was murdered at the consulate in Istanbul in October.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
