Things like heat exhaustion or hypothermia come on subtly and slowly… they trick the brain, you get confused. When family is like no way, so and so would’ve called for help… happens all the time. The person doesn’t realize it’s happening. Like when it happens on Mt Washington… he never called for help, but they found him bootless in January and looking like he laid down for a nap. “Investigators say they expect Tramonte died of heat exposure and that foul play is not expected. Tramonte’s friends say the details surrounding her death don’t add up because she always carries a phone and would have called someone if she was sick. “She did not die of heat exhaustion,” Gerardi added. “I just know it.” An autopsy is being performed to determine an official cause of death. The officer who was with Tramonte is said to be cooperating with the investigation.“ Expand Yeah… I don’t have any insider information, but looks pretty cut and dry to me.
