Heat victim couldn't afford air conditioning fee
By Canadian Press, Wed., August 8, 2007
Sarnia -- Neighbours say a mentally ill woman found dead in her
sweltering apartment couldn't afford air conditioning.
Police cited excessively hot temperatures in Suzanne
YOUNG's
apartment as a possible factor in the 49-year-old's death. "It
is possible that the heat contributed to her death," said coroner
Dr. David EDEN.
He added there was no reason to suspect foul play.
YOUNG was found in her bed on the weekend by a neighbour who
became concerned after not seeing her take her usual morning
walk.
"We were all wondering where she went because the last day we
saw her was Thursday," said Timothy
DUQUETTE, who lives in the
area.
Shanna MacDONALD, who adopted
YOUNG's 15-year-old daughter as
a child, said
YOUNG was on medication for mental illness, including
schizophrenia.
Friends said
YOUNG was living on social assistance and cleaned
up the parking lots at two local coffee and convenience stores
for extra money.
Because of her fixed income,
YOUNG could not afford the $50 monthly
fee charged by her landlord to cover electricity costs of a window
air conditioner, said her friend Jane
McNEVAN.
