Anyone else think this news story is a bit fishy?

  You are really trying to push a narrative that you can’t drown in a canal.

  Between alcohol, rocks and the height between the edge and bottom of a canal you absolutely can drown because you can’t move from an injury.

    Or a person struggling in a scary event.

  The death note and how to use it:

  If you don’t specify a cause of death, the person will die via drowning in a canal.

  Depends on the actual spot, there a holes in the bottom of some of those canals, there could have been a head injury when she fell. Until someone is actually standing where she fell in, you don’t actually know the depth.

  What is the conspiracy supposed to be here? That the two guys just added themselves and big canal is covering it up?

  It’s certainly difficult to do, and not likely something that needs to be fixed, but it’s at least possible.

  You tumble in head first, get knocked out hitting the bottom, then drown. That seems the most obvious way this can happen.

  It’s really unlikely. And happening once isn’t a reason to change anything. But unlikely things happen all the time.
