My friends are into Glee, I heard about the CP guy. His name on the show was Puck or something. The second one, Corey Monteith, is the one most people know since it made headlines around the world for some reason.

Some reason? lol? It was because he was still one of the show's leads on a massively popular show.

Overdose, suicide, drowning... what's next for the glee cast :(

They were teen actors with a huge cast. Child and teen actors are always more prone for bad stuff to happen to them than adult actors and, again, huge cast. If you have a ton of people, something happening is less statistically significant.

What has the kid said about it. He doesn't just end up in a boat by himself.

4 isn't that young motherfuckers can usually read by that age. Ofc they can recount what happened to their mom.

Naya was in her early 20s when she started Glee and the two guys were pushing 30.

I'm gonna start throwing hands if I have to see one more Twitter post accusing the cops of being racist for suspending the search overnight
---

After the turbulence in her life the past few years, I wouldn't be at all surprised if she purposefully drowned. That's just sad.

wait? wtf. :/

i thought it was an overdose.

Rachel berry fucked up too. iirc she was posting all BLM stuff and the fat black chick called her out on being a bully and making her time on Glee miserable.

It wasn't the fat black chick (Mercedes), it was the black cheerleader that replaced Santana as Queen Bitch after she graduated.

Finn died of an overdose, and Puck (the older one) committed suicide after being caught with child porn.

That's kinda what I'm thinking but I hope that's not the case

4x Rules of 3 on Survival for the average human being:

• Most average humans cannot survive past 3 Minutes without Oxygen
• Most average humans cannot survive past 3 Hours without Shelter in a Harsh Environment (unless in Icy Water, you'll have < 3 Hrs as your survival thresh-hold)
• Most average humans cannot survive past 3 Days without Water
• Most average humans cannot survive past 3 Weeks without Food

If she drowned, then she's long gone and it's only a matter of time before finding her body.
If she's just missing somewhere nearby, you still got time.

It is extremely difficult if not outright impossible to drown yourself. It is also an extremely painful and (relatively) slow way to die that no one is going to look at and say "Yep that's how I'm gonna do it".

glee cast is cursed sheesh

I concur, but what if she drowned by accident?

Hypothetically, she goes for a swim with her kid without "Stretching Properly" before hand.

She pulls a muscle mid swim, and because she's never pulled a muscle while in a very deep lake, she panics, and accidentally drowns?

Doesn't that sound plausible?

---

Fuck the Glee curse

How big is the lake?

How big is the lake?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Piru

Catchment Area = 421.4 sq mi (1,091 km2)

Surface Area = 1,240 acres (500 ha)

Max. depth = 130 ft (40 m)

---

Yeah I feel like it might be an accident or foul play. The reason why I don't suspect suicide is because her son was with her. I know you'd have to be in the darkest of mental spaces to contemplate suicide but to do it with your young kid nearby and possibly being a witness to it is just a whole nother level of dark.

But who knows what really happened. Sad stuff all around regardless

Oh yeah no I wasn't ruling out accidental, if anything there's probably a 99.9% chance that's how she died (drowning). How it happened of course will probably never be known (unless someone that knows her says she can't swim or something like that).

I was just saying the concept of purposely drowning yourself isn't super feasible. You'd have to get yourself down deep enough in the water so that you couldn't reach the surface again before your panic reflexes took over and your body started inhaling water.
---

Sounds like it's officially been acknowledged that it's now a recovery mission.

Area of the lake they think she disappeared in based on where the boat was found is about 30 feet deep with only 15 feet of visibility. That's pretty fucking bad.

Obviously nothing concrete but I've seen some chatter from people familiar with the type of boat she'd have rented say the specific boats can be difficult to get back into, especially if there isn't a ladder (which is a possibility). Apparently there was also a man that drowned in that lake once after he helped his daughter back onto the boat and the boat started drifting away and he didn't have enough energy left to reach it.

So lotta possibilities but I guess there will never be an answer as to exactly what happened (outside of what her kid has supposedly said).
---

She left her kid on the boat right? Yeah I think it was a tragic accident.

---

I get it happening in the ocean, but how do you drown in a lake? If you get tired it's easy to float on your back, right? I don't know, I'm maybe be way off.

I was wondering about the size of the lake earlier to see how long it will take for divers to find the body, because someone very well could have came along, "rescued" her, and then just took off.

I had the biggest crush on her. She was beautiful and she will be missed

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Piru#Drownings

In August 1994, 27-year-old Jesus Danilo Carranza from North Hollywood drowned while on an outing with his family despite wearing a life jacket.[12]

In July 1997, Liborio Dominguez from Long Beach drowned while trying to rescue his daughter. The young girl was saved, but Dominguez's body was not discovered until several days later.[12]

In September 1997, 22-year-old Isidro Castillo from Newhall encountered problems while swimming and called for his girlfriend to throw him a buoy. The woman was unable to get the flotation device to him. His body was found a day later.[12]

In September 1997, rescue workers recovered the body of 30-year-old Port Hueneme resident Ulises Anthony Mendoza, who was last seen struggling days earlier while swimming with family members near their boat.[12]

In 1997, park officials speculated that wind gusts and deep columns of chilly water on the lake, which is up to 160 ft deep depending on the time of year, can overtake swimmers quickly.[12]

In February 1998, the body of Lake Piru employee Arthur Raymond Caladara was found drowned near the dock.[12]

In June 1998, the body of 30-year-old Vy Xuan Dang from Garden Grove, who disappeared while swimming with his family during the Memorial Day weekend, was found by a park ranger.

In September 2000, 25-year-old Van Nuys resident Edie Cruz, swam the short distance to his stalled radio-controlled model boat, and drowned only 10 feet from shore. Douglas West, Lake Piru's parks and recreation services manager, said there had been about a dozen drownings during his 23 years at the lake. Most victims are inexperienced swimmers who are not wearing life jackets and who overestimate their own abilities or swim in prohibited areas.[12]

Naftoli Smolyanksy died in a boating accident in August 2008. Smolyansky had taken his 9-year-old son and 5 and 7-year-old daughters out on the lake Monday afternoon when his youngest daughter fell off the boat. He jumped into the water to save her, and managed to get her back on the boat as it drifted away. Smolyanksy was unable to swim to the boat and did not resurface.[13]

In May 2010, 36-year-old Roberto Barrios was celebrating his graduation from nursing school with a group of about two dozen people, when he went for a swim off of their pontoon boat. He had been swimming for about five minutes when the wind started pushing the boat away from him and two friends. People on a nearby boat rescued the two other people, but those on the pontoon boat couldn't get close enough to rescue Barrios before he disappeared under water. A few days later Ventura County Sheriff's dive team found Barrios at the bottom of the lake. [14]

On July 8, 2020, actress Naya Rivera disappeared while swimming with her son. A search of the lake began that day, resuming on July 9 after being temporarily called off due to nightfall. As of July 9, the Ventura County Sherrifs Department confirmed that the search has been shifted from an active search to a recovery mission and Rivera is presumed dead.[15][16][17][18]

This lake has quite the body count.

What I mean is that I don't have to have one on when I'm out there. I can just lay on my back and I just float and float with out having to even think about it

Have you ever pulled a leg muscle?

It hurts like hell.

If you panicked, and didn't have a life preserver, you could've accidentally drowned because you weren't focused and thought about floating.

Also wrong. She was introduced in the last season. She was originally a Warbler.

Its the only thing you gave her credit for. Its scummy, imo

I mean, what did you want me to give her credit for exactly...

Its not like I knew her personally.

If anything let this topic be a reminder that you might not be as good as a swimmer as you think and that sometimes freak accidents happen. Best to wear a life jacket just in case.

RIP. Shitty story.

It's a freshwater lake so you have a lot less buoyancy than you would in the ocean.

Also floating on your back is still an acquired skill itself.

Yeah. It pisses me off all of my friends do it but I still can never master the skill.

Drowning would be one of the worst ways to die IMO.

All I'm saying is that it will be really shitty if they don't find her body out there and she got taken by someone she thought was going to help her

That guy on the 1st page is exactly why I found it important to learn to never double down once called out on childish and inappropriate behavior. It could of been far less pathetic. Learn to save face bro.

@NoMeLx22x I thought they said they found a life jacket in the water?

---

Usually on lakes, lifevests are worn. You see people wear it when they take boats out. Well at least most visitors do at the lakes I've been to.

Folks familiar with the lake will advise to wear the lifevests for their safety. However, there are times when the life vests just aren't supplied enough too. Really depends on owner of the boat.

I wonder how big was the boat and if she was seen with someone else tbh. A 4year old left on a boat after What happened is not what you often hear about in these events

I'll be honest I didn't see that if they did. That'd be unfortunate.

---

I thought it was in the boat itself with the kid?

Also @KamenRiderBlade apparently part of the body count has to do with the fact it's the only lake in the area you can actually swim in? So more swimmers = more drownings/incidents.
---

I'm seeing a lot of drowning/suicide theories. What if she was kidnapped?
