I would think it had to be someone who is familiar with that hotel. Either a hotel employee or someone who does work for the hotel. Water tanks are not a usual dumping ground I’m guessing.

I’ll bet that was not a very attractive body if it had been soaking for almost a month.

“Don’t drink the water!”...

What was the dead Canadian tourist doing in the water tank?

The ‘stroke’

This story really makes me sick.

Everyone is making jokes about the water and there is this poor young lady most likely murdered.

I HATE murderers.

Basil: “There’s a tourist in the water tank!”

Manuel, laughing: “How a tortoise geet up there, Meester Faulty?”

Basil: “Don’t mind Manuel. He’s from Barcelona.”

They’ve tried to clean it up in the last couple of years and market it as a budget boutique hotel in the hip downtown area, but it’s really still just a fleabag joint on the edge of skid row. It’s junkies and foreign tourists who don’t know any better.

Another opportunity for the Church Ladies of the Harper Valley PTA visiting us here to mount their high horses!

Inside or semi-inside job. You’d have to know those cisterns were there and how to get to them.

The news report at the source showed some elevator security video of the supposed victim acting suspiciously, like she was hiding from someone.

RIP Elisa Lam

Doesn't look like a place to skinny dip.
Looks like a place for a sicko to dump a rape/murder victim.

I’m trying to understand a technical issue with this story because something seems a bit weird beyond the finding of a body in a water tank. I’ve worked in a wide range of commercial office buildings and number of large hotels and on many occasions, had to go on to the roof of many of them to do some work on cooling towers or other components of HVAC systems. Admittedly, I don’t work on the water systems and none of my experiences involved Los Angeles. However, I don’t ever remember being on a roof that had an accessible tank that was used for potable water… never. For one thing, uncontrolled pollutants and insects could access it, in cold climes it would freeze and in warm climes it would get warm. There would be huge risks of legionnaire’s disease and moulds forming depending on the temperature etc etc. Yes, there needs to be a means of regulating building water pressures and flows…. But do they really do this for potable water through the use of tanks that are accessible? I would have thought that a sealed tank would have been used, no? If a Freeper here has some experience in this area, I would greatly appreciate being enlightened……
