Woman Charged With Second-Degree Murder After Intentionally Driving Twin Sister Off A Maui Cliff
NY Post — A woman who was driving a vehicle when it plunged off a Maui cliff is charged with second-degree murder in the death of her twin, who was in the passenger’s seat.
Prosecutors say Alexandria Duval, who is also known as Alison Dadow, intentionally caused the death of her identical twin sister, Anastasia Duval, also known as Ann Dadow.
The 37-year-old sisters were in a Ford Explorer traveling south on Hana Highway when they crashed into a rock wall last week, plunging about 200 feet onto a rocky shoreline, police said.
Witnesses saw the two women arguing while the vehicle was stopped and said the passenger was pulling the driver’s hair, Maui Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Emlyn Higa said. Then they saw the vehicle “accelerate forward and then take a sharp left over the cliff,” he said.
Always tough when a little twin sister cat fight turns into a fiery death for one and a second-degree murder charge for the other. Hate to see it. Whatever happened to the normal, harmless things sisters used to do to each other? Like posting makeup-less pictures or poking holes in each other’s condoms? I guess sisterhood just isn’t fun and games anymore. Not in Maui. Not when you mix business and family:
They’re originally from Florida, where they ran a successful yoga business, and moved to Hawaii in December from Utah, Eddins said.
“They were in the process of building a business plan and were aspiring to open up studios here,” he said. “They had an extremely close bond.”
I guess if we’re being honest I’m surprised something like this didn’t happen sooner? They look exactly like each other. They moved to Hawaii together. They run yoga together. You can only take so much of an exact copy of yourself. So yeah, of course they ripped each other’s hair out while driving off a cliff. Duh. The question is how the hell did it take 37 years?
PS – Feel like you have to let the surviving twin off on this one right? She’s not a danger to society; she was just a danger to her twin sister. It was only a matter of time until one killed the other. A “neither can live while the other survives” deal. They didn’t ask to be twins but that’s the hand they were dealt.
