The three sisters who died in the sea in Brighton

[VeganSteakAndFries]

This is sooo dodgy. There’s no recent photos of them, no one knows why they were there.
They were fully clothed. Handbags on the beach.
Their mum was found dead in a lake 16 yrs ago in Birmingham.
Police have reviewed 100’s of hours og cctv footage and nothing.
What the actual fuck?!

which is true? You suggested they 'wouldn't even know they are a witness yet.'

If the police have obtained CCTV from them they would have been told they were a potential witness at that point, because the police would have had to take a witness statement from them producing the CCTV. It was literally my job for several years.

Not for more than minutes though. What is it - one to two minutes per degree including the time it takes to warm up after you come out (which itself is more than half of that time).

What do you mean which is true?

The coroner hasn’t called any witnesses yet, no.

Exactly!

Someone going in to help and then both dying is a common occurrence.
Multiple times more than 1 person has gone in and they’ve all ended up dying.

I’m not sure why people are trying to make it into some sort of conspiracy.

It’s so incredibly sad but it’s so plausible that I don’t understand why anyone thinks there is anything dodgy about it.

If it was a suicide they would have left a note.
And it would not be murder unless 3 separate killers drowned them at the same time and even then I’m sure you could tell by a postmortem.

It's one thing to go in when you're expecting to, and another when you slip or fall. Plenty of people would find 12° too cold to swim.

Below freezing is an exaggeration but it’s extremely cold and even when I go in slowly it can take my breath away.

I can imagine cold water, strong current and panic to be a dangerous mixture.

You can just drown though. You don’t need to “fall and have cold water shock”.
the posters theory seems unusually specific for a theory, as though all potentials had to be there to die in the water.
Cold water shock is quite the buzzword this weekend. it’s Like lots of people have just heard of it for the first time

@Scarlettjune hi What was that info?

I think accidental drowning (misadventure) is the most likely explanation but it's so bizarre that their mother also drowned.

Di what’s the go fund me for? Did they have children?

However this tragedy happened here is what RNLI say if you fall in water or see someone encourage them to
Float to live
We’re urging people to ignore this instinct and remember to float: Tilt your head back, with your ears submerged. Relax and try to breathe normally. Move your hands and legs to help you stay afloat if you need to. It’s fine if your legs sink – we all float differently. By doing this, you give yourself the chance to rest and recover your breathing. Once you’ve regained control of your breathing, you can call for help or swim to safety.’

If you see someone else struggling in water:
· Phone 999 to get help
· Tell them to stay calm and float on their back
· Throw rescue equipment to help them float until emergency services arrive

Call for help by calling 999 and ask for coastguard or inland for Fire and rescue

I haven't heard of this tragic case before tonight, but straight away the case of the Hungarian twins from Aberdeen springs to mind. They walked out of their apartment in the middle of the night and were later found in the river Dee.

Go Fund Me after a death is going to be for funerals. In this case for 3 people’s burials so I don’t get the speculation there

Not below freezing, but you get cold-water shock at 15C without a wetsuit. 12C is well into the danger zone. The screengrab below is from the RNLI. Link also provided.

It’s so horrendously sad.

Why on earth would three non-drinking / partying women in their 30's decide to walk into the sea before 6am and not be picked up on CCTV, whatever the answer i hope the coroner can find it - if it was MH issues then maybe that could have been prevented.

Yes?

Thats very, very possible.

You say it like cold water shock is unlikely and unusual. It’s really not.

It is incredibly plausible that one of the girls got in trouble in the water, the others tried to help, and they sadly all drowned.

it’s a common scenario.

The part that’s harder to understand is what they were doing in Brighton, much less in the water, in the first place.

Go fund mes don’t have to be for anything, though do they? They can just Be to give money to help people out

It could've been a tragic accident, but the lack of a suicide note doesn't necessarily mean it wasn't suicide.

Yes, you can drown without cold water shock. Depends on a few things. We don't even know if they could swim.

I read somewhere that they were celebrating because one of the sisters had recently cleared debt.

To help who out? The poor girls are dead.

Well their family obviously.

people want to help, no one gets forced to donate £10 to a go fund me

Yes you can just drown but considering 3 people died then it’s pretty safe to say that other factors were likely at play too - the most obvious either cold water shock or a strong current.

Tried to edit it but couldn't. Who is Gareth Jomes?
