People in the building complained that the water tasted funny, iirc, or they’d might never have found her.

Whatever happened it’s a terrible thing to happen to anyone. Unless they are Antifa or ChiComm, etc.

Yikes!

I haven’t had a TV for decades. I am referring to their online news articles I see posted here and elsewhere.

when she was crushed in an elevator accident in her apartment building.

Thanks for the link, it makes sense now.

Back in 1999, the wife of an employee at my company was a patient at a local hospital. She was killed in an elevator accident when she was being transported from one floor to another. She was on a gurney that was being moved into an elevator and when it was only half way in, the elevator suddenly rose. She was caught between the car and the shaft wall.....

I think you are closer to telling what happened than the article was.

[Agamemnon]

Sometimes when items are too big to fit completely in an elevator people will go upstairs to the next floor, force open the doors and place the large object on top of the elevator. This done in colleges a lot. This is probably what is meant when a guy implies that it's done all the time.

The traumatic asphyxiation may have to do with when the object complicated the cables and got stuck between floors, where she may have forced the door open between the floors, stuck her torso in to push a button to advance the carriage, and the down button accidentally got pushed, crushing her torso between the threshold and upper interior ceiling of the carriage.

Just my guess.

FReegards!

[Salamander]

Call me crazy but that “technique” just begs for a disaster.

Gruesome way to go.

[Drew68]

It reminds me of the movie THE FINAL DESTINATION

Thinking the same thing. This is the type of horrific accident that probably kills one person a century.

Seeing that she was in academia, she may well have been liberal or progressive. However, I don’t care what party she belonged to or how she planned on voting. Her death is horrible and tragic. I’m sure her family will be forever changed. I will pray for them tonight.

Who the HECK is writing these articles?
They OBVIOUSLY have never been reviewed by a proofreader, nor an editor!
