The community is in mourning after the identities of three women found dead in the sea off Brighton beach were revealed. Sussex Police have confirmed that the victims were sisters: Jane Adetoro, 36, Christina Walter, 32, and Rebecca Walter, 31. The siblings, originally from the Uxbridge area of northwest London, were discovered following a major search operation near Madeira Drive.
Emergency services were first alerted to the scene around 5:45 am after reports surfaced of a person in the water. A massive rescue effort involving a coastguard helicopter and multiple rescue teams led to the recovery of three bodies. The news has sent shockwaves through both Brighton and their home community in London as people struggle to process the loss of three lives from a single family.

He spoke of the unique impact each daughter had on his life, noting that while their time on Earth was far too short, their memories would remain in their hearts forever. "The tragedy of losing all three of you has left an emptiness that words cannot heal," he shared during his heartbreaking tribute.
Currently, authorities are working to piece together the circumstances that led to this incident. Chief Superintendent Adam Hays has described the event as a "heartbreaking tragedy," and specialist officers are currently supporting the family during this difficult time. The investigation remains ongoing as police look for answers regarding how the three sisters came to be in the water together.
