Death of Ana Clara Benevides: Difference between revisions

Content deleted Content added
The article should be about the incident. Details about what the victim studied, when she would graduate, are not necessary. With due respect, the lines: "she loved Swift and was fulfilling a dream", and so on, is an absurd to add to wikipedia. She was not a martyr, she died in an accident. An ACCIDENT.
The paragraph is too long, some details are not necessary. It should be rewritten. What 'to be "... in the mess"' exactly means?
