À propos de cet audio
38 year old elite skydiver Els Van Doren fell to her death in 2006 after both her main and reserve parachutes failed to open—an almost impossible coincidence. Investigators soon discovered sabotage, her parachute lines had been cut.
With no forensic evidence and only a web of emotional motives, prosecutors built a purely circumstantial case. Was it jealousy? Opportunity? Or a tragic misinterpretation?
