@YaYa_521 I wonder if this is a hospital she worked at? I’m assuming she was a nurse looking at her vehicle tags.
And I noticed one of the links you posted stated she was found in a secure part of hospital. I wonder does that mean a place only accessible by hospital staff?

Would be nice to have a bit more info but certainly seems like suicide - got strong opiates, locked herself in somewhere hidden and injected herself.

I'm not sure but I have a sneaking suspicion Jennifer had some kind of connection to that hospital at one point in her career. As for the 'secure part' I wondered whether she maybe had an accident on a set of rarely used stairs or an elevator shaft? I'd hate to think she decided to take her own life or that she was attacked by someone. Perhaps @evilwise came across something that leads to his/her theory of self-harm.With LE saying no foul play I suppose it leaves only natural death, accident or suicide. Either way, a life lost way too soon. May she rest peacefully.

Had some disciplinary actions but last I see was 2018, assuming it's the same person. Don't think she worked at that hospital though.

ETA may she rest in peace.

You may be right about the secure part being an area of the hospital rarely used. I say that because in one of the articles, it was stated on Tuesday her vehicle was located but “Dunman was not with the vehicle. Nor was she found in the hospital.”
And then another article stated she was found
Tuesday night late/Wed right after midnight after her vehicle was found Tue afternoon.
I take that as her being in a part of the hospital possibly rarely used.

Wow. This is the first I’m hearing about this!

I have a friend who works security at that hospital at night. I will ask him tomorrow what he knows.
So sad.

It didn't look like she had an active nursing license. I wonder what she was doing for work. If she had another job in the hospital..

It’s Me

By Jacqueline A. Grieve

“Hey, you guys, don't feel guilty,

It was just my time to go.

I can see you're all feeling sad,

I can see the tears still flow.

My life's journey ended early,

The path I chose was short.

You all tried your best to change it,

But in the end it was for me to sort.

I know I caused you sadness,

I know I caused you pain,

But I was captured by these demons,

They wouldn't set me free again.

They took away my freedom,

They took away my choice,

And when they got their hooks in,

You could hear it in my voice.

There were times I tried to fight them,

There was a time I nearly won,

But they came back and overpowered me,

I had nowhere left to run.

I haven't really left you guys,

I am closer than you know,

I will be the whisper in the wind,

I will be everywhere you go.

One day you will all forgive me

One day you will understand

And when your time on earth is done

I will be waiting to take your hand.”
