The hope of finding the missing TV star (33) alive should be out. Now the search is about finding Naya Rivera’s body in Lake Piru.
It is a demanding job for the exploration crews, who for the fourth day in a row are looking for the “Glee” actor after what is now considered like a drowning accident.
Among other things, there is very poor visibility in the water.
“In just this lake, and in this particular area, there are lots of trees and plants under water that you can easily get stuck in. That makes it unsafe for divers, and the search becomes much more complicated,” the Ventura County sheriff said, Kevin Donoghue, to the press before the weekend.
– If the body is stuck in something underwater, it may never reappear. We don’t know, he said E! Online.
Police went out on Thursday with one press release, where they wrote that the search has now gone from being a rescue operation to becoming a search for the body. They consider it likely that the 33-year-old has died as a result of a tragic accident.
