Old, discontinued threads-Inquiring minds want to know?

...the lady that claimed to be gropped at depth by a DM in Mexico

OK, I can see some interest in the results of a diving accident investigation, and discussion which leads to education and safer diving. But I don't see the interest in pursuing an incident where some poor person was groped.

Why do you want to know?

I find it curious that a DM would grope a woman at depth while she's wearing a wetsuit and BC, while the husband was close by. Did he grope her, or was he reaching for her dump chord? If he gropped her, cut his snorkel off, but if he didn't, he should be cleared. We were left hanging with just one side of the story.

Also, why did the Doctor leave the safety of the mooring ball and perish shortly after? What can we learn from these two incidents?

let's please let this one rest. you either believed her or you didn't (i did) and
dragging it back up isn't going to change anything. there's nothing that could
possibly change this, other than the guy's confesion, and that's not going to happen.

by the way, if you remember the thread, it was much more than "groping" at depth. her life was in danger.

like i said, you don't even remember her story.

at any rate, it will still be just her word, so your curiosity will not be satisfied.

Pilot Fish is mixing up what another poster in the same thread recounted about what happened to her at depth while her husband was surfacing, NOT the original poster.

If we know that there was an investigation, the perpetrator was in police custody at the time, and he was expelled from PADI, as was confirmed last year, there is nothing more we need resolved in this thread.

The Spiegel Grove incident that Pilot Fish mentioned was covered ad nauseum in the original thread, mainly by PF, as I recall, and the various contributing factors were all discussed in that thread.

Like others have said, coroners reports don't tell us the real story, because they only confirm the eventual cause of death to be drowning. They usually do not determine what factors contributed to the situation in the first place.

Have to agree with Rick here. If you want juicy gossip pick up an Enquirer
