You people are crazy.
Swimming in a pool vs. the beach are 2 different things.

So he had a signal on his phone at the beach? If he saw a possible drowning and didn't report it, yeah. Or did he say that in that moment he didn't think she was drowning?

where was her phone?

Because a lot of foreign born Asians don't know how to swim. Swimming is not part of Asian schooling curriculum like it is in VA public schools.
My Asian roommate in grad school could not swim, ride a bike or drive. Those are considered essential life skills here, but not in Asia. Some parents might teach their kids but more likely, the kid masters them on their own.

Swimming is not part of VA public school curriculum. That is entirely on the family to teach.

Swimming has NOTHING to do with this BUT you are wrong. Our NOVA schools systems have swimming in elementary school and high school.

They certainly do but. I teach in the school system. You’re a troll.

I'm not a troll. Where do you teach? My kids took swimming in APS and FCPS. I sub in APS.

LCPS. You’re telling me there’s a mandatory swimming class taught during the school day? That’s bs.

Yes, in FCPS and APS.

blatantly false. absolutely untrue (may be an exception but certainly not all or mandatory)

sad to be trying so hard to insert off topic and false irrelevant diversions in this thread as if the actual subject matter isn't sad enough on its own

With regard to APS specifically there is mandatory swimming for 3rd graders and ninth graders. It is a unit in their PE curriculum. In elementary school they are bussed to the Washington liberty pool. Agree this has nothing to do with the topic at hand, nor would it have saved her, but you seem completely unhinged claiming you’re a teacher and making false statements about school district you don’t even work in.

STOP
APS matters to NO ONE and NOTHING in this thead

Unless he had something to hide.

If he killed her I hope he does not get away with it.

Do we know that Sudiksha or any of her friends weren't lifeguards?

There were 5 women total? Surely one must have been a lifeguard? Has this been reported?

This is so weird

Where do you get the idea that one in five women are lifeguards?

Even if one was a lifeguard, they weren't present at the time, so it wouldn't matter.

Don’t feed the trolls.

Exactly. Sheriff Simpson is inserting himself into this tragedy not out of a desire to help, but for the publicity it will give him. New head of FBI is Indian. He's keeping that in mind.

That may not matter much. But could that be a reason why parents were thinking other things, do they know anything since they are apparently an "important" family (yet to know how they are important tho, as someone on this thread mentioned pages ago)?

Keep spamming about 1 post in thousands

No one here has said being a lifeguard was going to save them. It has been mentioned numerous times on this thread that the ocean is tough for even the most advanced swimmers. No one knows if either of the people being talked about
(based on interviews friends gave of Konanki and the young man being the two on the beach after the larger friends/aquintainces left beach to return to hotel)
actually went in water that morning. It seems the young man LE interviewed said in one of his stories that he and Konanki did go in or that Konanki went in water. That is basically all they seem to be reporting at this time re: being in the ocean.

It trains you to treat drown as an emergency. His phone was working, he was using in surveillance video. He claimed to see her go under a wave and not surface, but he did not call for help or notify anyone, ever, until police showed up. Then his story kept changing. It’s sued.

But lifeguards would be expected to warn their friends that red flag swimming at night after a night of drinking should be avoided.

The basic swim skills taught in a mandatory public school claass would not be sufficient to save a drunk person in rough waters in the dark.
