What's a construction pond?

I am by no means a construction expert but I think they are used to manage storm water runoff during construction projects.

A pond dug near a construction site, usually for overpasses or exit ramps, to provide dirt for the project.

I mean, how deep could that be then? I guess you wouldn't know it was there unless you travelled by and saw it. But still. That's sad man.

That is a great question. I don't know how deep the typical pond would be but I'd guess it depends on the size of the construction project. I'm assuming this one is pretty big/deep since it took a helicopter to spot it from above. Though I think they also indicated there had not been work there recently - so maybe it's as simple as no one having been around to spot the car.

It's incredibly sad.

Sad news. I had a feeling this is what happened. Devastating.

There are no barriers due to the construction on both sides.

There are two ponds located a quarter to a half mile north of 6000N Road that are owned by a contractor working on the new interchange there.

No work had taken place in the area for a couple of weeks.

So she was going south? Went through the ditch across the other lanes down another ditch and in to the pond? How does that happen? Fell asleep?

I heard a report at 10:30 a.m. on ABC. Of course, as usual, WS is hours ahead of msn.

Being reported again right now. This time confirming it is Sheila's car.

Very tragic because I'm guessing the accident involved texting.

 

[Woe.be.gone]

I feel the same way. I'm not sure which direction she was going on I-75, but I looked up the general area and there are some bodies of water off the side that I hope they are looking at.

This was the nineth post in the thread. This is the third case I know about that involves a car going into water when, of course, all kinds of other suspicions are considered. When I read the post above, I told myself not to dismiss this simple explanation too quickly. Sure enough, tis true.

Parts of a vehicle were spotted on the side of the road by a Sheriff's Deputy (per 11:00 a.m. news).
Then a dive team recovered a body inside an upside down vehicle in the pond.

 

[Woe.be.gone]

The ponds would be deeper than usual because there's been lots of rain lately.

 

[Woe.be.gone]

It seems the ponds weren't considered early on (by search crews) since Sheila was missing six days before car parts were noticed on the side of the road. Ugh!

 

[Woe.be.gone]

My heart goes out to Sheila's family and friends. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Was hoping for a better outcome

RIP Sheila

3:30 a.m. this morning they found a car bumper with an IL license plate near a retention pond.
Believed to be a single vehicle crash.
Autopsy being conducted. NBC news.

Painful news 😕: http://www.nbcchicago.com/news/loca...Missing-College-Student-Police-422006803.html

The body of a missing Illinois college student was found Thursday inside a vehicle in a pond not far from the school where she was last seen, officials said.
According to Bourbonnais Deputy Chief David Anderson, investigators found the vehicle upside down and submerged in a pond off Interstate 57 near mile marker 317 between Manteno and Bourbonnais. A deceased woman was found inside matching the description of 27-year-old Sheila Khalili, according to the Schaumburg Police Department.

RIP, sheila.

Posts on Facebook seem to say her name is Sheila Kay ? Not sure if maybe this is a name she goes by or a mistake?

I believe this must be the pond. I'm devastated to hear of this tragic accident.

So sad. Alcohol and cocaine in her system.

 

[trenchmouth]

Very sad. Looks like she was partying hard at Jaxx's
