Even in halls it can be ships passing in the night - I remember one weekend, I was wasted on the Friday night and wandered back to halls. just couldn't be bothered doing anything with anyone for the rest of the weekend, so I pretty much turned off my phone and camped out in my room watching DVD box sets. I was coming and going to the shops etc. And even using the communal kitchen but didn't happen to see anyone. On the Monday people asked if I'd had a good weekend back home! Everyone just assumed I'd gone to my dads for the weekend. Technically, I could easily have been dead in my room, or never made it home at all that Friday night. Rambling a bit but, just saying, I can see how something like this could happen... People at Uni especially live such "individual" lives and just sort of flit about like that. Maybe this does suggest that people should be looking out for each other more, though. Then again, I guess it wouldn't have changed the outcome here. Even if they had realised within half an hour that something was wrong, it would have been too late. |

I'm not saying that it isn't sad that no one noticed or that there isn't a good argument for sending the message, to young people especially, that they should look out for each other whilst out drinking... just that I understand how it happened, and I do feel bad for her friends who will inevitably be blaming themselves already when it was just a tragic accident.

This is where I feel the people in that group made a terrible misjudgement, they should have either got a cab home or someone should have stayed with her who was less drunk to see her home OK. You do not let drunken 20 year women go off pissed out of their heads on there own across bridges. I don't blame the other people for this tragedy BUT I do feel this accident was entirely preventable.

Another body found in a York river... a teenage boy this time though. Same scenario apparently, went missing after a night out.
Kinda weird how this never ever happens yet has happened within the space of a week?
