She was found "as if she had slid down into the tub." Like she fell asleep and slid. They also said her body was cold.
If the thumps were loud enough to be heard, I would think she would have some injuries consistent with that.
It said that the female "went in to check on her", no breaking down the door. The thumps don't make sense.
Maybe her people just tripped and fell getting up to rush in there?
I think this may very well end up being something simple that happens more frequently than people realize.
Whitney may have taken a Xanax... then talked to her mother, gotten in the bathtub to relax before the show...
And then, fallen asleep in the tub.
Something that has actually happened to many people, taking the prescribed dose of their medications and ONLY that.
People also have seizures while taking a bath and drown before they come out of them.
If the ONLY thing Whitney took was Xanax? Then her mistake was taking it BEFORE taking a bath.
The warm water will lower your blood pressure... make you light headed anyway.
On top of the Xanax or other sedating drug, it's a bad combination.
I really hope that if that is what happened to Whitney... most people will shift their focus.
Taking one Xanax before a show is not drug abuse. Her history doesn't mean she can never take medication again.
She could have safely taken it being closely monitored by a doctor and loved ones. I hope they focus on safely using medication.
Give Whitney the credit she deserves by not constantly referring to her past, if it's proven that was in her past.
But... that's just MY opinion. :twocents:
We don't know what condition her body may have been in. Perhaps they were protecting the child. If she fell and there was blood, it could have been traumatizing for the child to see her mom that way?
They were not protecting Bobbi, they were protecting themselves. At that point they didn't even have a warrant yet.
If they had let her in and then there HAD been a crime charged later (think Michael Jackson here) then it would have compromised the case.
If they don't have a warrant then they really can't let someone else in to compromise the scene either.
