Quote:
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. -- A doctor involved in an "on-again, off-again" relationship apparently tried to force her way into her boyfriend's home by sliding down the chimney, police said Tuesday. Her decomposing body was found there three days later.

Dr. Jacquelyn Kotarac, 49, first tried to get into the house with a shovel, then climbed a ladder to the roof last Wednesday night, removed the chimney cap and slid feet first down the flue, Bakersfield police Sgt. Mary DeGeare said.

While she was trying to break in, the man she was pursuing escaped unnoticed from another exit "to avoid a confrontation," authorities said.

DeGeare said the two were in an "on-again, off-again" relationship.

The man's identity was not revealed by police, but the man who resides in the home is William Moodie, 58.

"She made an unbelievable error in judgment and nobody understands why, and unfortunately she's passed away," Moodie told The Associated Press. "She had her issues – she had her demons – but I never lost my respect for her."

The first thing that came to my mind after seeing the title of the topic.

I'm pretty sure a lot of you have done pretty stupid shit when drunk etc. I have a couple of times when younger, things that might have been "oh shit this would be so retarded if I would die doing this"!


Dont know anything about her being drunk or whatever. But yeah, stupid and tragic way to die.


Squirrely: Now come on y'all. We can't waste time arguing. There could still be survivors out there. We need to hunt them down, and kill them.
Beary: How about we kill them, and then rape their bodies so we can use their blood as lubricant.

She was 49, so probably not eligible for a Darwin Award.

They don't have a maximum age limit for the award. And since the news article doesn't mention if she had any kids I guess she's eligible. Terrible way to die though. Stuck there and unable to get out. As already mentioned, we've all made some stupid mistakes when sober or drunk (with the exception of Ron Smug) but to die because of a lapse of judgement is very harsh.

Nah mate, the award is only for those who've ensured they won't taint the genepool (further. I think you can get it even if you already have kids). If you're post-menopause you've already done that. I'm not 100% but I think that's the general idea anyway.
