Marshall had breathing problems while diving near Alki Beach late Tuesday. Friends managed to get her to a pier along the shore in the 1600 block of Harbor Avenue, where firefighters found her without a pulse and not breathing.

Breathing problems? She ran out of air!

"Friends" didn't get her to the pier ... other divers who happened to be in the area did.

You cannot believe anything you read in the press ...

...Oh, Please...who writes that stuff? Don't they get their facts right?
I agree with Bob, you can't believe anything you read in the press.

Very sad.

My hat is off to Lamont and the rest of the rescuers. It's a shame she didn't make it with what sounds like the very best rescue a victim could ever hope for.
