I did some Googling and she was apparently still OK as of at least August 2025, when she participated in a podcast- not sure I can link it but it's one of the first hits when one Googles her. I'm guessing life has just gotten in the way, MOO.

I would bet a good bit of cash that something like this has happened. -Signed, grew up in one of said small Appalachian towns

Thank you!

Am I missing a link? I feel like I'm just not seeing it.

Something has GOT to be going on. I get it, drunk young men, blah blah, but I live very near to a college campus and if it was JUST drunk young men falling into the river we'd be fishing dozens out every Sunday morning. There are too many here to be sheer misfortune. MOO

Some religions have prohibitions against suicide, and they don't want family to know they're dead by their own choice. More prosaically, some life insurance won't pay out in the event of a suicide, and they want their families to have the money. MOO

If one scrolls down on Darci's FB linked upthread, about a year and a half ago there is a picture of her with a puppy. Assuming this is the same dog that did the mauling, the dog is pretty young and possibly not so great on the impulse control yet, which she as the owner SHOULD have known and...

I hate it so much for her sake that she was seemingly afraid to approach a female staff member for help, or even a fellow female passenger. Someone might have been willing/able to help her get connected with security, or at least provide a place she could go to steer clear of Perv Stepbro. Do...

As we were conversing, it hit me that it's possible that they genuinely don't know how vast 87,000 people is. "Hey, there's number 8 and number 7! We can take that many of them out, right?" [/me shuffles off to hide under a bed, mumbling about how the Earth is doomed.]

Right, so they thought, but...were they thinking the men would cheerfully march off to the slaughter? And that none of the women, or even children, would attempt self-defense or the defense of others? They would have had to deal with 87k people in one fashion or another, and... we've seen some...

I just cannot wrap my brain around how on earth they thought this would ever work. As if the almost-90,000 strong populace of the island would just lie down and die? As if none of the homeless people they were trying to involve would have a conscience and draw the line? I just...I don't know how...

Might be worth submitting- worst they can say is that it's not a match. Her turning up in Maryland would be sort of confusing to me but we've had weirder.

Definitely submit that one. It's close enough that it would be worth notifying them IMO.

The problem is that the reporters (or "reporters") don't respect this and quietly leave, as most people would do. They're right back at it pounding on the door in five minutes, or at best the next day. On top of that, it isn't a normal tap two or three times. They pound, and I mean POUND on the...

Infuriating how it always seems to go this way. The- keepers, I can't call them parents- have never missed a meal a day in their lives, and then starve the poor child.
