Quote:The "fall victims" were tied with a rope. Before they became "fallen victims", a wardrobe had been thrown over the balcony to destroy a protective net intended to prevent suicides. The British press did not report how they managed to throw a heavy wardrobe from the balcony.
I'm willing to bet that a) suicides do not toss wardrobes out of high rise buildings to destroy protective "jump" nets, and b) that triple suicides are very, very rare, and c) triple suicides tying themselves together to jump are unheard of.
To my mind this smells like a punishment killing that included the wife and son.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
