Friends who were with an Englishwoman found dead near a Guatemalan highland lake in her final days say numerous details of the case suggest to them that it was an accident.
In this Tuesday, March 12, 2019 photo, Elena Consolini, right, is comforted by Francisco Rosales as they attend a memorial for their friend Catherine Shaw at a hotel in San Pedro La Laguna, Guatemala. Shaw, an English tourist whose body was found near a Guatemala highland lake popular with travelers, died of hemorrhaging resulting from a traumatic brain injury, according to an autopsy report completed Tuesday.
“She was like a fairy who went around spreading happiness,” said Elena Consolini, describing Shaw as relaxed and without conflicts. The informal wake took place a day after Shaw’s unclothed body was found in the shrubs near a mountain overlook above Lake Atitlan, found four days after she was reported missing.
Catherine Shaw had arrived early last week at the hotel where she struck a deal with management to do volunteer work in exchange for lodging. She roomed with Consolini, an Italian who is the last known person to see Shaw alive and was the one who reported her missing last Thursday. Shaw’s friends were eager to counter rumors on social media of purported drug use, sexual assault or the possibility she was responsible for her own death. Those unsupported accounts, plus a grisly photo of the body that circulated online, gave an inaccurate portrait of who Shaw was, they said.
