The 23-year-old biochemist jumped from a 30-story Miami apartment, two blocks from the University of Miami Medical Building where her husband, Austrian chemist Dr Sigbert Schiefer, works. The couple, married in Vienna last fall, had recently arranged for parents to visit, with fresh stress over travel costs and homesickness cited by investigators. A friend at the medical building, Klaus Vosbeck, and others knew the Schiefers as close friends, but the case remains under investigation.
