The fatal rope-jump accident that claimed the life of a 21-year-old woman in Brazil has sparked widespread suspicion after three instructors arrested in connection with the case made controversial claims during police questioning.
Last week, on June 13, Maria Eduarda Rodrigues de Freitas lost her life after she was thrown from a high platform at Ponte do Esqueleto (Skeleton Bridge) in Limeira, São Paulo, without the safety rope attached.
Now, as investigators continue to examine the tragedy, the three accused operators’ recent claims have netizens crying foul, arguing that the operators are trying to distance themselves from responsibility.
