Anu Singh

It was a dinner invitation they couldn't refuse. It's wonderful occasion Anu singh has enticed her fellow law students with a spine-chilling promise. She told a whole bunch of people ‘I'm gonna commit suicide come to my place and we'll have a farewell dinner’. One person doesn't know of her sinister plan, her fiance Joe. Somewhere in that process she said to herself well if I am going to die Joe should die too. It is beyond my comprehension that those at the party that knew what this was all about did not speak up speak up and stop it.

In Canberra Australia two University students prepare for dinner out. Joe Cinque is smitten with his pretty fiancee. She is also a repulsive immature rather manipulative and extremely narcissistic. When Joe mentions an ipecac, an idea takes hold in a her mind. A syrup of ipecac is a medicine that induces vomiting. She starts to abuse it daily and soon wastes away to just 88 pounds. She seemed to have a pretty normal life until her mid to late teen years, when her mental illnesses started manifesting. The first one was an eating disorder, the second one is a dangerous delusion. Once she started taking the ipecac, she developed this delusion that she was dying.

When I say delusion, I do not just mean a kind of funny idea that all of us have in our heads. This was a psychotic belief which she could not be talked out of. She sought help but refuses to believe her doctors. She was convinced that there was nothing that could be done to help her. If she is going to slowly gradually waste away, she then became more and more suicidal and made plans to commit suicide. She took a series of carefully thought-out steps. She researched suicide in the library. She tried to obtain a handgun. Then she settles on heroin. Incredibly no one questions her disturbing plan. One of the astonishing things about this case is that a whole series of students at the law school, had heard her talk about actively planning suicide, and to my knowledge none of them put their hand up to someone and said you better go talk to this girl.

She would be what people would call the drama queen. Things needed to Center on Anu. She was extremely self-absorbed. Acting out and her scheming was never about death, it was about the whole drama of her being at the center of attention. Anu decides to host a dinner party with her own death as the main attraction. As bizarre as it seems, it seems that most people at the party knew that it was meant to be a send-off party for our new scene and they seemed to take the news that well. If someone wants to commit suicide that is their business not ours but Anu will not die alone. She wants to take Joe with her whether he likes it or not.

Anu Singh is a law student, she has decided to kill herself. She tracks down a chap at the law school who supplies her with heroin but this around she found someone who sold heroin to teach her how to inject it. There's no question this was a clearly planned out. She suffered from clinical depression. She suffered from psychosis. She did not even know what was real and what was not. Anu has a strong delusion, she thinks she is dying from using syrup of ipecac. It is a medicine her boyfriend suggested might help her lose weight. She is very childlike and narcissistic and so that in her view of the world, when something goes wrong it must be someone's fault.

It was his fault now. She blames Joe for her imagined illness. She wants to kill herself and take him with her. The idea was that she would have a dinner party. It was like the Last Supper. Anu plans to heavily sedate Joe with Rohypnol. Rohypnol is a date-rape drug. It causes very rapid loss of consciousness and causes somebody to fall asleep. It also tends to decrease a person's memory of any of the events that occurs to them. Once her dinner guests leave Anu begins stage two of her scheme. Joe Cinque is now at the mercy of the woman he loves. She used enough heroin to kill two horses. There was a massive dose of heroin. Heroin is a central nervous system depressant.

As the person's respirations become depressed, less blood is flowing to the body, less oxygen to the brain. The person begins to suffer from brain damage. It will not be the peaceful departure Anu hopes for. Fluid builds up in the lungs, it causes the accumulation of frothy fluid in the Airways, which can then exude out the mouth and nose. The nature of the murder might have started out as some kind of rogue romantic fantasy, of leaving the world together and being forever together. However, that fantasy was long gone. In a panic Anu calls emergency but repeatedly gives the wrong information. This is how you know self-involvement, wanting to protect herself, a poor judgment, erratic thinking.

Joe could have been saved had she gotten rapid medical attention. However, Joe Cinque is dead and Anu has not kept her part of the deal. She does not try to join him. She had every opportunity to kill herself. Anu Singh is charged with murder. The prosecution were of the view that she was a highly intelligent girl and she was determined to get away with murder and was smart enough to feign mental illness. However, her defense proves Anu is mentally ill at the time of the murder. She had a psychological condition that made her less responsible for her actions. Found guilty of manslaughter, Anu is sentenced to 10 years in prison. She serves a total of four and now lives in Sydney Australia. Maybe if one person had gone to someone in authority maybe Joe would still be alive.
