Skydiving and Stephen's Death

Stephen was popular, fun-loving and enthusiastic. One friend stated, he was a good lad, fun in the air and on the ground. The time frame of his parachute being sabotaged was believed to have occurred sometime between Stephen's last jump on Wednesday, and the early hours of Friday morning. Police left the crime scene with over 200 pieces of potential evidence; they had DNA samples from everyone present to compare against Stephen's equipment. They were confident it wouldn't be long before a suspect was identified. Less than 48 hours later, skydivers, including Stephen's teammates Adrian and David, were back in the air in tribute. All had added an extra step in their preflight checks.
