a1-The Chimney

Police say a California doctor apparently tried to get into the home of the man she had been dating by sliding down the chimney. Her decomposing body was found there days later.

Police Sgt. Mary DeGeare says investigators do not suspect foul play in the death of Dr. Jacquelyn Kotarac.

Authorities say the 49-year-old apparently climbed on the roof Wednesday night, removed the chimney cap and slid feet first down the flue after unsuccessfully trying to get into the house other ways.

Text continues after Pictures of the Week gallery:

DeGeare says the man whom Kotarac was pursuing had left the home unnoticed to avoid a confrontation.

The body went undiscovered for several days until someone noticed odors coming from the fireplace.

Firefighters dismantled the chimney Saturday to remove the body.

    im so confused. this is probably one of the dumbest things ive ever read. and she was a doctor. you are supposed to posses some intelligence after being in school that long and becoming a doctor. this is sad.

    Her being a doctor, should she noticed that the chimney is too small for her to stick her dumb ass in before she acted? That right there was her fault that she suffocated to death for doing something stupid and for a man who didn’t want her ass!
