CAnn,

I am so sorry for your loss. I can't believe your BIL would not have contacted someone in your family to let you know what happened! My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.

I don't know if C. Ann is still reading this board, as I am sure she is much pre-occupied at the moment.

There is certainly something very strange about this and she should be very aggressive in persuing the issue with the police/medical examiners office/coroner, etc.

She should begin by calling her local police and asking if she can come down to talk with them at a time that is convenient. When she does, she should ask THEM (her local police) to make some calls for her after she explained what happened and what her brother in law did.

HOWEVER, C. Ann must be prepared to answer some questions that she will find very uncomfortable (as they have confused me as well). Her local police will ask her:

Did you not find it strange that you had not spoken to your sister in TWO YEARS?

If you were told that she was in the hospital, you didn't visit her in the hospital for the TWO YEARS she was there?

You said you got alot of advice from folks on a Disney board, you mean you have been to Disney a number of times in the past two years but have yet to visit your sister who was hit by a train?

They WILL ask these questions because the police have to decide who is making things up, the brother in law or the sister and if the answers to these questions aren't good the police are likely to ignore C. Ann.

Good luck.

And she may simply reply "None of your business" when they ask, although I really don't think they would ask. There are many reasons that I could think about right now, but, as I said, I really think it is noone's business.

 

[Disney Ella]

So sorry to hear about your sister.

 

[Disney Doll]

Family relationships can be so difficult. I am sorry for your loss, and hope that you find resolution and answers to your questions.

 

[luv2nascar]

I hope you find the peace of mind you so need
God Bless you and your family in your time of need

you may want to consider a service/memorial for her
you can do that even though she has been gone for two years
It may help your family if you have a lot of family to help you get through this difficult time.

She might wish to say that to the police, however, if the basis of her suspicions against her brother in law is that he did not communicate accurate information to the family, the police will likely be interested in the nature of the families communication in the past. If the family had been estranged for 25 years, the police might find nothing suspicious in the brother in law not relating the information of her sisters death to the family.

However, if the family was very close then such failure to inform the family is suspicious indeed. If she goes to the authorities, as I think she should, she should simply be prepared to answer some of these questions.

If she truly believes that it is none of the police's "business", then she might wish to let the matter rest...

I don't think that rrSafety was indicating that CAnn owes us that explanation. She does need to realize that if she goes to the authorities they will ask these types of questions.

C.Ann I am sorry. (I can understand, there is actually one member of my family that I don't think anyone knows where he is for years at a time! What can you say?)

 

[SandraM]

Sorry for your troubles.

 

[Hagred]

Wellnow I think there's nothing wrong with CAnn wanting to know about the circumstances surrounding her sister's death. If any hanky panky had happened when her sister died, the police would already have investigated. But I can't fault her for wanting to know what happened, especially after being led astray for two years.

In any case, I'm grateful that CAnn has some firm information rather than rely on the man who lied to her in the first place. Anything other than that is just none of my business.

Again, my condolances CAnn. I hope you find closure very soon.
