Default Kate Hospital Nurse Found Dead

Here's one for the conspiracy theorists.

Quote:
A nurse at a London hospital who took a hoax call about the Duchess of Cambridge has been found dead.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge said in a statement they were "deeply saddened" by the death of the nurse, named as Jacintha Saldanha.
King Edward VII hospital paid tribute to "a first class nurse" who was the "victim of a hoax call."

Come on Jim, this is not a coincidence. Something smells rotten in Denmark. I can smell it from here.

Poor taste on the DJ's part, but people pull these stunts all the time. You would think the hospital would have protocol in these situations where all calls are sent to the higher ups.

If a person kills themselves over this, it's no ones fault but their own.

Simply wondering what a post mortem will reveal...heart attck possibly, brought on by the recent stress she must obviously have been suffering?

My guess is suicide rather than face a possibly very public disciplinary. Of course something natural would be preferred.

That coupled with a lot of phone calls and visits from the press I'd wager. Interesting that this happens so soon after Leveson...

Hello Mr Leveson, how's life after presenting the results of the enquiry?

(2Day FM is the radio, and Michael Christian and Mel Grieg are the presenters. They have been taken off air and deleted their twitter accounts, and I imagine the comedians and radio presenters that supported them are feeling a tad silly now: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/ukne...edia-says.html)
