Found Deceased PA - Geoffrey Partridge, 36, Montgomery County, 5 December 2018

[Hippononymous]

I’m having some trouble understanding why a person can drive right into the Schuykill river. Is this a boat launch which cannot be blocked so someone doesn’t accidentally or intentionally drive into the river? Or is it an embankment, not meant for launching anything? I see that the car was found at Flat Rock Park, but the several articles I’ve read aren’t entirely clear.

I generally don't think the boat launches are blocked--not the ones I'm familiar with anyway. I don't think it would be "easy" to do (accidentally), but I do think it's possible. And it would be easy to do intentionally. (Not saying that is what happened).

I forgot about this young man. I hope his family has some answers soon.

It's shocking how many missing people in the area are unfound, and time just goes on.

RIP Geoffrey and condolences to the family. From the link given by @CCJD :

Partridge’s cause of death was ruled to be drowning, and its manner was ruled to be suicide, according to a spokesperson for the Coroner’s Office. . . .In a December interview, Turanski said Partridge suffered from bipolar depression and Lyme disease, which often left him weak and exhausted. But she said the last few months of their 15-year relationship had been bright, with Partridge feeling more energetic and social.
