Assumption Colllege Suicide

[ede58]

I am interested in any factual and anecdotal information about the life and death of Kimberly Robbins - a 22 year old English teacher at Assumption.-

The US notification of her death was short and non-informative.

Any help or lead would be appreciated.

ede: Can you provide a bit more information. For example, when was her death? Was it reported in any of the press? Under what conditions was her body recovered? There are a lot of foreign "suicides" in this country.

Amazing how many farangs try to commit suicide here ... and all by jumping from high buildings.

If it really was suicide I think most would just go to a pharmacy and buy a 12-pack of sleeping pills.

Jumping from high places takes a lot of guts.
