This is a terrible end result, but with all due respect, Saturday morning at 9:30 is NOT an unreasonable time for a jogger to be out, and that area is usually a well traveled area with beach-goers and people heading to the Marigot market, etcetera.

It is always better to do things like that in pairs but most of the runners I know prefer to run alone. And add to that the reality that most young people never think bad things will happen to them. Sadly, it's as we get a little older that we tend to enter the 'what if' stages of our lives.

Perhaps we could just say a prayer for all concerned and hope the French police are able to find out what happened and apprehend those who might be involved and mete out the appropriate punishments and leave it at that. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />
