Theory Briefing
- Jane Adetoro, 36, Christina Walter, 32, and Rebecca Walters, 31, all died in the sea off Brighton — investigators now centre on a specific environmental cause.
- Cold water shock theory suggests sudden immersion triggers involuntary gasping and cardiac stress, incapacitating even strong swimmers almost instantly.
