Anna Uskova, 40, was swept away in a frozen river in front of her husband and children. The husband was the one jumping in the ice hole trying to save her.
The St Petersburg lawyer plunged into an ice hole to mark Orthodox Epiphany .
Footage showed a strong current pull her away in the Oredezh River, near Vyra, a village south of St Petersburg, Russia, before vanishing.The lawyer from St Petersburg intended to dip in the waters to mark Christian Orthodox Epiphany in a tradition followed annually by hundreds of thousands of Russian believers.
People believe that water blessed for the annual ceremony possesses special healing properties.
Some people go into the icy waters on their own, while others often take part in the celebration in groups as they remembered the baptism of Jesus in the River Jordan.
A hole had been cut into the thick ice and the air temperature was around -5C when Anna jumped in. Rescuers searched for her, but her body was not initially found. Uskova's body was located 150 meters from the Rozhdestvensky bridge downstream, about a kilometer from the ice hole.

No.
She's dead.
Did you read the title? She's dead.
Hence she won't be undertaking any legal cases in the future, cold cases or not.
Because she's dead.
Happy to correct you

I had forgotten about this video. For some reason it is one of the more haunting videos Ive seen despite lack of gore or violence. The thought of floating away under water knowing there is no hope of return and drowning in the freezing cold..

Jesus never jumped into frozen water. I haven't read ALL of the Bible, but I know that much just from basic geography. Why would she, and who let her, just jump in like that? I'm sure she could have eased in. Listening to that cry for their mom is hands down the most chilling thing I have heard on this site so far. Just created a whole generation of Atheists in their family.
