Media! The sheriff plainly said said it's all speculation and what MIGHT have happened.  The media takes part of one of his statements and reports it as fact of events. I dont give a damn about this story but the lack of integrity, dishonesty, and spin that media demonstrates daily drives me crazy. It should be illegal to misquote LEO like that.  |

The media will do anything for a story and ratings. They care nothing of the truth.

This story is bs. How can you muster enough strength to get your kid in the boat...then what? You just sink? Why wouldn’t she just hang onto the boat and rest? Is it a titanic situation where she just lets go and sinks. The kid also had a life jacket on, what was she saving him from? Something stinks here.

Ya chummer, I don't know the story other than she died and the sherriff gave a possible scenario. If that scenario is accurate or not I have no clue. I just know that what the sheriff said and what some media reported are two very different things.
I can say that I've passed out while running a race and that if I had done that in the water I would have been dead. Went from pushing through light headedness and numb arms to waking up on a table. They say I beat the kid I was sprinting to the finish and that I went down after the line. I don't remember.

This lady also probably weighed 110lbs. The kids life jacket could have kept them both afloat. I passed out during sex before but that had more to do with the gallon of whiskey I drank, don’t believe I made it to the finish line. |

Lol, that's the worst finish line to miss!
I had that thought also (that the kid's jacket would have been enough) but once again, the scenario is speculation. If it is what happened then she is the poster child of what NOT to do on a lake.

A guy I used to know lost his brother to this exact scenario. Had enough strength to get his 4 year old back in the boat, but not enough to save himself. Died in his early 30s.

I jumped in a lake last weekend. It could have been me.
j/k. I had a life jacket on.

They got that wrong too. The sky is not blue. The gases in the atmosphere (nitrogen, argon, neon) are excited by the sun like a tesla coil, and change color as the sun goes around the center pole. This is why you can read the newspaper on the west side of your house in the morning in the shade, but you can't read one on the opposite end (away from your light) of your stab shack at night. |

And the earth is flat and we didn’t go to the moon. I am staring at it right now and it is blue. |
