Plot in AUSTRALIAN DIVE SCANDAL Thickens

A few weeks back Richard Neeley and Allison Dalton went on a dive tour in Australia's Great Barrier Reef. Quite a normal thing for tourists to do. The news came when these to divers were apparently "left behind in shark infested waters" by the operator of the Dive Boat.

Now this is where the water starts to get a little murky. The couplle had or obtained an agent who then secured them exlusive interviews from several news sources who paid hansomly for the right to the story.

Since the story broke, a few holes have surfaced in their story.

According to the couple, they said they surfaced within 200 Meters of the dive boat. The dive boat operator, on the other hand said it was more like a mile away. In addition, the Couple Claims their diapearance was not reported for three hours, when in fact it was reported within an hour.

For safety reasons, the dive boat operators tell divers to inflate their safety balloon as soon as they realise they are lost. The couple, on the other hand, did not decide to inflate theirs until after dark.

To add to the mystery, the couple also opted for unseasonably thick full length dive suits and came prepared with extra bottles of water. Almost as if they were planning for an extended visit. In fact, the story is starting to sound so suspicious, Anna Bligh, Queensland State Premier, is saying the couple should help pay for the massive costs involved in their rescue.
