Death[edit]

Just weeks after Rosamond’s last art expo in 1994, she was invited to stay in a famous home twenty miles south of Carmel at Rocky Point. As reported in the Carmel Pinecone, Rosamond had nightmares about a giant wave causing her demise. On March 26, 1994, Rosamond, her sister, Vicki Presco, her son, Shamus Dundon, and Christine’s daughter, Drew Benton, were getting ready for a party that Stacey Pierrot was going to attend. The four were not exploring tide-pools, because there are none at Rocky Point. How Christine ended up in the ocean, remains a mystery. The claim a rogue wave, “unusual for that time of year” took her out to sea, is fictitious. There is no season for rogue waves. Rosamond was 46, and was celebrating her first sober birthday. She was very protective of Drew, and due to her nightmares, would not let her near any large body of water. The person who invited her to stay at this home, is not known.[6]

My neighbor and I conducted a test in 0ur swimming pool. Sandy put on the jacket and walked into deeper water where she could still stand up. Then Sandy treaded water with ease. She felt no need to take the jacket off, and when she did, she stood on the bottom of the pool. It was a struggle. This would be very hard to do in the deep end. She would probably sink to the bottom to get footing. She could not zip it up. If she could, I suspect there would have been air pockets. The jacket was buoyant.

According to Tom Snyder in his lying divorce book, ‘When You Close Your Eyes’ he says Christine was washed into the sea by a big rogue wave – along with Drew – who would be her main concern. Why would she bother to take the jacket off? After allegedly handing her…
