Not an accident because the boy should have done his duty and gone back into the water to save her, but he did not do so.

I dunno.
One could say her friends had a greater responsibility to her.
One could also easily say it is the duty of parents to guide their children in good decision making. I have had talks with my kids about alcohol consumption and how it is for social enjoyment. Getting s*faced is not enjoyable.
And yes, I serve up with wine or cider with dinner sometimes. Make something a tantalizing taboo and they overindulge when they have access to it.

It's been washed out to sea. Or eaten by a shark.

I read though there’s a protective barrier to the coral reef and the sharks preference for deeper waters. I still find it odd that her body hasn’t been found unless it’s been swept away.

No one actually knows if she went into the water, do they? Did cameras show she did? While it's likely she went in, or did someone make her go in, or did she....so many unknowns?

That’s what her male friend said. That they went swimming. At this point either she drowned or this man did something to her. There was a four hour time window.

Why not just "how proud of their daughter"? Who gives a damn about major, oh right, the "Indian American from a similar background."

She's not American she's an Indian citizen living in the us

Technically. The "Indian American" (or take another country like Dominican American) part is commonly used by those who while they are not American by birth nor did they get naturalized (didn't get US citizenship) but have lived in US most of their lives so will hypnanate because they associate with being American. As in this young woman's case, it was said she came to the US in 2006 and they say she is 20. So she came to US when she was 1 or 2 years old. Not knowing if she ever went back to live in India after she moved to US so they write Indian American.

it is relevant here because India had to take the lead with DR authorities vs US who was just monitoring (until recently) because she is an Indian citizen and not a US citizen. It mattered in this case. I do not have any opinion on whether India has a good diplomatic team (I see no reason why they wouldn't) but people were asking why it too so many days for the US to get involved and it is because the priority/first in line was India.

Through the TJ grapevine, a representative from the Indian embassy met the parents at the airport when they landed after they immediately booked the next flight there.

What parent would not do the same if they were in this situation?


In contrast, at that time, the response from the Americans’ embassy was “let’s just wait and see if she turns up.”

Sorry but this was an unacceptable and unprofessional response here, when clearly someone’s life is in great danger.

If they activated the embassy staff every time a young adult person wasn’t where they were expected to be after a few hours they would do nothing else. Lots of people go to these places to party and run off with friends and do unexpected things. She’s an adult woman.

I do not believe you understand the fact that this is an important family. However, I don’t expect you to understand because you are probably an american.

How are they important?

And who defines what is "important" and who is?

so that's why she didn't become an American citizen? Btw, we are all "important" people on here in case you didn't know

The family moved here in 2006 to take advantage of TJ being like a free private school. They have gamed the system under your tax dollars. They don't even live in Fairfax county.

She left her clothes on the chaise, suggesting she entered the water in her bikini.

This is such a dumb take. If he did that, we'd be reading about two dead bodies.

What an @ssholic post! If the parents have permanent residency, they're working here. Therefore are tax payers, you dolt. And their daughter was perfectly eligible for TJ:

"The school divisions currently participating in TJHSST are:

Arlington County
Fairfax County (includes City of Fairfax)
Falls Church City
Loudoun County
Prince William County"

Sorry your kids weren't smart enough to get in.

Unless there were other people around or a clear footage to review, that is just one side of the story: his side. Doesn't make it true. They let him return to U.S. Did he do something to the drink she had that night/morning? Or was he too impaired to do anything? Did someone else come onto the beach when they saw a woman alone on the beach or shore in the early morning it was probably still dark at that time. Still many unknowns.

I read somewhere that the family is pretty wealthy. They might have some type of connection.

But did the reports say the two men with the five women were their friends? Or the men were strangers?
