Three sisters took own lives 16 years after mother’s death in UK, inquest finds

An inquest in the UK has concluded that three sisters who drowned off Brighton took their lives 16 years after their mother's death, according to BBC reports. The sisters, Jane Adetoro, 36, Christina Walters, 32, and Rebecca Walters, 31, were found dead in May 2021. They had lived secluded lives after their mother's drowning in Birmingham in 2010, struggling with the loss.

The sisters traveled from London to Brighton, where they entered the sea despite not being able to swim. Postmortem tests found no drugs or alcohol in their systems, and they had no evidence of violence. Coroner Penelope Schofield stated that the sisters were extremely private and their reasons for taking their lives may never be known.

Their father, Joseph Adetoro, described their deaths as "a heartbreak beyond anything I could ever have imagined."
