Pledger dies

Susanne Dow, who was an Oxford pledger in opposition to the war on Iraq, committed suicide a few days ago in Nottingham where she was a lecturer. The stress and threats from drug addict neighbours pushed her to suicide.

So it turns out Suzanne actually died over a year ago, in October 2011, but that the inquest was only held recently, hence why it's in the papers now, and why some of us that knew her in Oxford (but weren't close enough to hear about it at the time) are only just hearing about it now.

Yikes. Bit of a shock.

So the original article is wrong when it says that she died in the last few days, but that doesn't mean that it is deliberate misinformation. I think it's more likely Paul simply misread the news articles that came out recently about the inquest, and made a mistake with that detail.

A lot more to this story

There is a lot more to Susanne's death than the 'suicide as a result of stress' cover story that has been fed to the media. Her work in the anti-war movement has been successful and committed, she was a major pain to the State for nearly three years and knew she was under observation from the police and security services.

The so called 'drugs den' next door was no more than a couple of lads who liked a joint on a weekend, they and Susanne were friends and there was no problem. A number of us are doing our own investigation and trying to trace her laptop which disappeared at the same time as her death.

Somebody has blood on their hands here.

Sorry no, nothing personnel but we already have police sniffing around trying to find out what we know so we are keeping things to a small group of close friends. Sorry if that seems a bit off but I hope you understand only we who were closest to her can be trusted right now. This is simply too big for any mistakes

Good decision. The cops know their drug den story is already falling apart and that she had downloaded a lot of info offshore. If you can prove the murder that undoubted took place here then a few careers are going to be over ! Be very careful now of offers to help and new people popping up, the powers are going to be doing all they can to get close to you.

Stay safe and strong.

Old news.

Nope, this is garbage obviously posted by the anti-ISM brigade. This article can be safely hidden as disinformation.
