"Bergmann told investigators she was given the boy’s phone number by his mother in December when his family invited who they thought was a beloved teacher with them to the Afton Alps for winter break."
Obviously taking the teacher with them on the family vacation was a big mistake.
Indeed it is a strange twist (though I'd guess not uncommon with wealthy people) - and one I bet they regret now. In their naivete they thought they were reaching out in kindness, I'm sure, but as Murphy's Law states "No good deed goes unpunished".
