He said she jumped in, disappeared and didn't come back up. If you can swim, you'd try to get back to the surface, so it sounds like someone who didn't want to fight for their life. It's worth mentioning that it is both not uncommon for good swimmers to be drowning victims and often not very noticeable when people are drowning. I can't imagine a 4-year-old would be able to differentiate. I obviously have no more information than anyone else, but based on the information presented it seems likely to me that is was a very tragic accident and I wouldn't want to make the assumption that they didn't want to fight for their life. I knew someone who could swim and unfortunately drowned in a lake under very similar circumstance and I think to this day they are not sure exactly what happened. His family was present, but they did not realize what was going on until it was too late. It seems unimaginable, but unfortunately can happen.

It was really informative and I think important for people to be aware of, especially if going out on open water. Edited just now by anonanon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If her son claims the last time he saw her was her vanishing under the water and not coming back up, what more can you say to that? Yes, he's really young but if he's old enough to know what he saw, it seems pretty conclusive at this point. If her life jacket was on the boat, that totally points to her jumping in deliberately. And I know it's weird to think that she took her child out on a boat to commit suicide but suicidal people make really odd choices sometimes. Their brain obviously is not in a fit state. Plenty of parents have killed themselves while alone in the house with their child, perhaps thinking that someone was going to come to the house eventually because they'd be concerned that a child lives there and no one's answering, especially if there's a car in the driveway. Basically, having a child doesn't make you not suicidal, you just find a way to do it so your child will be well cared for afterwards. What's chilling is that, five days ago, she posted a quote on her Instagram about how tomorrow isn't promised and she put a photo of herself and her son online just before they went out on the boat captioned "just the two of us." So, if it was suicide that's...heartbreaking. This girl didn't have the easiest time either. She used to date Mark Salling and likely carries some level of guilt for that and she was investigated for alleged domestic abuse towards her husband. Maybe she's dealt with troubles more than we know. Reading up about all the sad stuff that has followed the cast and crew of this show is beyond belief. How can one show have so many of the most shocking incidents happen to its stars? I don’t agree with you. I also believe your statement is very inconsiderate! Why would you jump that conclusion, when it could very well be she was just swimming and didn’t know the strength of the waves and how cold the water was which would make her muscles stiff and make it harder to swim!

Because she dated someone who committed suicide? She had nothing to do with that mans demons! Because the life vest was on the boat? Well, let me tell you; my family has gone fishing every year to mammoth lakes and have rented boats. We all went swimming in the lakes without life vest, and none of us were trying to commit suicide. So what leads you to believe she wanted to kill herself in front of her only son, which she has always posted about how much she loved him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can one show have so many of the most shocking incidents happen to its stars? Sorry but you're going WAY too far with the suicide thing. She was literally tweeting 2 days ago about her next book she was planning on writing, she was excited about the new season of her show Step Up and she loved her son so much. She probably knew how to swim and figured it was a lake so why bother with a life vest. She made sure her little boy had one on for his safety. I've known people who have drowned who would go in lakes and oceans without vests because they knew how to swim and unfortunately something happens and they ended up drowning. I don't believe we should be assuming suicide especially when there have been several deaths on that lake in the past and people have been complaining for years about that lake and the deaths and it being unsafe for whatever reason.

I’m not saying it’s suicide but many many many people have a lot going for them, lots to look forward too and act completely normal before killing themselves. It’s just a scary fact. from what I can tell - considering they haven’t found her - I’m guessing something went wrong or maybe she didn’t just simply never resurface - maybe her son just doesn’t fully remember what happened (or know) and she is very likely dead - I hope I’m wrong and she can explain what happened!
