Bethany Young - Ali's grave: THEORY

I've been thinking about the revelation, of Bethany Young being revealed as the girl who was in Alison's grave, a lot lately and it has made me think a lot about if I believe that she is that girl. So I kinda have a theory!

My theory is that Bethany Young was not the girl originally buried in the grave. If you think about it, we never knew anything about Bethany Young before this revelation came about in the 100th episode - surely one of the girls would have come across her name when searching for missing girls around the same time Alison disappeared, right? Another reason which leads me to believe that Bethany was not the original girl in the grave is that, in 'It Happened That Night' (which is episode one of season three), 'A' stole the body from the grave and sent the girls body parts (teeth and finger bones specifically), which we believe to be from that body, so there would have been parts missing - surely the police would have noticed that there wasn't a full body, right? So when 'A' dug up the body and stole it, it would have been the perfect opportunity to switch the bodies - maybe 'A' had something at stake and needed protection? Maybe there was something incriminating to them in that grave? Something that could lead the police to them? 

Another idea that has popped into my head quite a bit is that, Bethany Young could be a decoy, just like Tabitha Clark was in the PLL book series. If you haven't read the books, 'A' used Tabitha Clark to trick the girls into thinking she was actually real Ali - I won't go into much detail because I don't want to spoil it too much for anyone who is reading the series, if you haven't read them, I do really recommend the series. It's so addictive, amazing novels! But anyway, I was thinking that maybe Tabitha Clark could be a decoy for the original girl in the grave - but why? I'm not sure why, but it could be because of what I mentioned earlier - maybe there was something about her or with her that could affect 'A' or lead someone to 'A'. 

Let me know what you think of this theory!
