There was no gagging or even panicking the man was 3 or 4 days dead and,surprisingly to me,was stuck to the river bed as though weighed down.To my current shame I decided that night after swimming round him a couple of times to leave him there and tell no one. The next day I realised I had to report it so.I spoke to a gentleman called Joel from Water Police who was very helpful and encouraging and called me back that afternoon to tell me that they had recovered the body.I had an immediate reaction to the incident.I felt disengaged and cheated.On one hand I had been able to help the police with an ongoing enquiry on the other I had lost an important part of my life ... .... maybe. Since that night I've dived many times at the same place and come to see the experience in perspective I hope you can too. It’s taken me a long time to come round to this … ….

He reports the event, searches fruitlessly and spends a terrible night wondering what could have happened to her. Next morning there's a knock at the door and he is confronted by a couple of policemen, the old Sarge and a younger Constable. The Sarge says, 'Mate, we have some news for you, unfortunately some really bad news, but, some good news, and maybe some more good news'. 'Well,' says the bloke, 'I guess I'd better have the bad news first?' The Sarge says, 'I'm really sorry mate, but your wife is dead. Young Bill here found her lying at about five fathoms in a little cleft in the reef. He got a line around her and we pulled her up, but she was dead.' The bloke is naturally pretty distressed to hear of this and has a bit of a turn. But after a few minutes he pulls himself together and asks what the good news is. The Sarge says, 'Well when we got your wife up there were quite a few really good sized crays and a swag of nice crabs attached to her, so we've brought you your share.' He hands the bloke a sugar bag with a couple of nice crays and four or five crabs in it. 'Geez thanks. They're bloody beauties. I guess it's an ill wind and all that... So what's the other possible good news? 'Well', the Sarge says, 'if you fancy a quick trip, me and young Bill here get off duty at around 11 o'clock and we're gonna shoot over there and pull her up again!

‘Well,’ says the bloke, ‘I guess I’d better have the bad news first?’

I remember that story and thinking that the water police were a bit slack when the ABC reporter on the scene at 7.30am was saying, 'they expect to resume searching in the next hour'. Mind you, it was bloody cold.
