Final Divetination --- Murder under the water


my very caring editor incidentally asked me to flip through one of the local daily newspapers, and deliberately focus on a page with catchy lead "husband murdered wife during honeymoon dive."

well, i guess all my collegues well aware of my hobby and sincerely care about my safety, but prefer to advise indirectly through another medium.

It was said that the husband suspected of turning off the wife's oxygen tank, and get huge sum of insurance money after her death. So, lesson learnt, never stay in front or below your hubbie when you go scuba diving, u never know what they will do to your tank. (should try and see whether it is really possible)

Off course, I don't know the real story. I rather it is some kind of supernatural thing, what do you thing?




23, June SYDNEY, Australia (AP)- A Birmingham, Alabama man has been charged with murder in Australia for allegedly drowning his wife during a honeymoon dive on the Greet Barrier Reef.

Police are preparing a warrant for the arrest of the suspect, David Gabriel Watson, who faces a maximum penalty of life in prison if convicted of murder.

The suspect was not present in court and his exact whereabouts were unclear.

The charge was formally made by a coroner in Sydney, Australie who conducted a months-long inquest into whether there were suspicious circumstances in the death of 26-year-old Christina Mae "Tina" Watson on Oct. 22, 2003.

She drowned while diving on a historic shipwreck near the northeastern city of Townsville as her husband of 11 days looked on.

An autopsy found no pre-existing medical condition that could have explained Tina Watson's death. Tests showed there was nothing wrong with her diving gear.
