The coroner said it appears Lucy was caught up in some waves and wasn’t a strong swimmer. She became distressed as she tried to get to shore, vomited, and then choked on her vomit, which caused her to lose consciousness in the water. Officials reportedly searched for Lucy for hours before finding her body. “It was the unintended consequence of her swimming on a full stomach,” the coroner ruled.

Who knew the “wait 15 mins after eating before swimming” was true?

Or, and hear me out...maybe she threw up because she swallowed a lot of sea water? Or gagged on it?

When younger, I was always told because you would cramp up and not be able to swim

Coroners can cause a lot of problems when they overstep with comments like that.

Moms everywhere have a smug look on their faces.

If they hold it long enough it might stick that way

But let’s not let rationality and logic get in the way of a good scare tactic.

80s? The 50s at least

Robert Klein did a routine ridiculing it in the '70s (which I presume is now invalidated)

All depends on which type of fluid was found in the lungs.

I remember that Robert Klien gig, it was actually 60s and 70s for me. They always said he had to wait an hour after we ate before going swimming

The mother would time the food:

"An omelet? Half an hour. A salad? 15 minutes. Tacos, chili, and a large pizza with everything??? Don't go in the water for the rest of the summer!!!"

Coroners in England would also rule that if she was raped/murdered by a gang of immigrants it was an unintended consequence of not properly explaining to them she would prefer not to be raped/murdered
