I don’t buy it
A European Vogue cover model fell to her death from her Manhattan apartment building Saturday in an apparent suicide, a coroner ruled Sunday.
Ruslana Korshunova, 20, died around 2:30 p.m. in a fall from a building on Water Street, in Manhattan’s Financial District.
Korushnova’s New York agency and a spokeswoman for medical examiners did not immediately return telephone messages.
Originally from the former Soviet republic of Kazakhstan, the almond-eyed, flowing-haired Korshunova appeared in advertisements and on runways for such designers as Marc Jacobs, Nina Ricci and DKNY. British Vogue hailed her as “a face to be excited about” in 2005.
Her break came when modeling booker Debbie Jones noticed her while perusing an in-flight magazine article about Korushnova’s hometown of Almaty, according to the Vogue report.
“She looked like something out of a fairytale!” Jones told the magazine. “We had to find her and we searched high and low until we did!”
Police said the fall was under investigation. Korshunova’s New York agency and a spokeswoman for medical examiners did not immediately return telephone messages.
But a bystander told The New York Post: “I heard what sounded like a gunshot or a bomb or an explosion.
“I looked down the street, and I say to the cop, “Did that person just get hit by a car?”’ said an electricity company worker, who identified himself only as Patrick, 32, of Brooklyn.
The two men raced over to the scene. “Her arms were crushed,” Patrick told the Post. “Her head was on the left side and blood was coming out in a pool.”
Police said there were no signs of a struggle in the apartment.
The window from which she fell had a balcony, which had construction netting around it that appeared to have been cut.
According to several model websites, Ruslana had just returned from a successful fashion shoot in Paris “and was on top of the world”. She would have been 20 Wednesday. Suicide? Don’t you believe it. She probably wasn’t willing to whore herself out to the Russian/Albanian/shitholistan mafias that run lower Manhattan these days. This young woman had everything going for her, and her career was just starting to take off.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
