Christina Mae Watson went on her honeymoon with her new husband Gabe to scuba dive the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. She had a heart condition but she got her diving certificate and joined her husband in smaller dives. This would be her first time diving in the open ocean. Two minutes after she got in the water with Gabe, Gabe came to the surface and asked for help retrieving Tina, she had lost consciousness and sank to the bottom of the ocean. She did not survive. Gabe was convicted of manslaughter because he had failed to rescue her however some people believe he actually was the one that caused her air supply to be cut off in the first place.
