The British socialite who stripped naked and jumped off a Beverly Hills medical tower after a facelift surgery ten weeks ago was suffering from post-op psychosis, authorities confirmed Wednesday.

The Los Angeles County Coroner ruled that Sandra D'Auriol, 53, died in an accident, not a conscious suicide bid, when she leaped off the roof of the 12-story building the morning of Jan. 22.

The coroner said she died from multiple traumatic injuries and listed "postoperation psychosis clinical" as the "significant" underlying condition.

I posted about this as it happened as I'm very close to where she jumped. My friends in the same building posted about it when she was first on the roof.

"D'Auriol, a married mother of three who worked as a jewelry designer and philanthropist in Hong Kong, was in Beverly Hills for the nip and tuck from prominent cosmetic surgeon Dr. Brian Novack.
She underwent the surgery shortly before the incident, authorities said.

D'Auriol reportedly woke from her 13-hour surgery in a panic, unidentified sources told Allure magazine.

She fought with a nurse who tried to restrain her, knocking the woman to the ground, and fled to the roof with a security guard chasing after her, Allure reported.

She lingered near the edge of the medical building's roof for hours as authorities closed the street to traffic and tried to talk her down. The efforts were in vain.

"We are conducting an investigation to determine whether or not there was criminal negligence in the matter, other than that, everything else is under the [coroner's jurisdiction]," Lt. Lincoln Hoshino with the Beverly Hills Police Department told the Daily News shortly after the death."

Bird attacking car mirror thinks reflection is a rival. Cover the mirror with a bag. Mary Cummins, Animal Advocates

Some birds will attack their reflection in a mirror. They think their reflection is a rival and it is probably mating time. Some may attack their reflection during day hours. Some may die from attacking their image or they may end up too weak to mate.

Solution, cover the mirror with a dark bag. Don't use clear plastic or they can still see themselves and still attack the mirror. Paper is fine. They are not crazy, don't have head injuries...yet. They just can't tell that it's just a reflection and not a real bird. Below are some videos. Search YouTube for "bird attack mirror" and you'll see a bunch. The birds are generally the size of a car mirror.

Here is a pic of a bag over a mirror. Easy. Plus, will stop bird from sitting there and pooping all over the side of your car.

Paula Drake, squirrel lady of Pasadena - Mary Cummins, Animal Advocates

Paula Ann Carpenter Drake, Paula Drake, squirrel lady, Pasadena, California

Paula Ann Carpenter Drake, Born July 31, 1936 Los Angeles, California, died September 1, 2008 in South Pasadena, California. Preceded in death by her mother Hope Willard, father Paul Carpenter, husband Ronald J Drake Sr, son Ronald J Drake Jr, survived by daughters Tracy Eileen Drake, Jennifer L Drake, Marjorie K Drake and Laurie Sue Drake.

Paula Drake rehabbed squirrels for many years without any permits. Someone reported her and Fish & Game went to her house and left a citation for having wildlife without a permit. They told her to get rid of the wildlife. Instead she hid her squirrels in a safe house. Then she hired a lawyer and contacted the media. Fish & Game dropped the case against her. They let her keep her squirrels and continue to rehab squirrels for many years without any permits or legal caging whatsoever.
