The Death of Audrey Mestre

 Was it a mistake? Was it purposely done? These are the questions that almost everyone who knows about Audrey Mestre's death in 2002 in La Romana has. Audrey was a french "No Limits free diving" diver. On October 12, 2002, she submerged towards the ocean floor, determined to descend a world-record 558 ft. below the surface. No human has ever went before with one last breath & no air tank to survive with. Sounds dangerous, right? Of course, so why so many questions directed towards her loving husband Francisco "Pipin" Ferreras? Whether it was an accident or not even the simplest mistake could have risked someone's life.... & it did. IF it was a mistake. That would be the third mistake that Pipin made. Those three people's lives were in his hands & he had dropped them all. 

 There are lots of reasons for Mestre's death. Yes, it is a coincidence that three people had died while under the supervision of Pipin. Even Pipin himself had died a few times and came above the surface unconscious just as Audrey did, even after his years and years and years of training & diving. Had it been the so-called "god" that he summons every night called Olokun? After all, Pipin did replace her with Audrey. Maybe his Santeria god had done it because she was jealous of his one & only love. Pipin would have no reason to purposely kill his only true love. The one that can go just as deep as him such as no other girl he's been with. She could go deeper, finally someone who can. If he had done it, he wouldn't have went home & cried for weeks. Some say the tattoo of the mermaid in the shark on his calf muscles symbolizes that that's where she lives now, in the water. Other believe that the tattoo means that her death was purposely done. You decide.
