Missing SMU Student

Post by Peruna2001 »

Meaghan Bosch was last seen Thursday. Bosch is described as 5' 4" and weighing about 115 pounds. She has green eyes and medium-length brown hair.

Her parents admit that she may be involved with drugs. They believe the senior at SMU was last seen with a drug dealer.

A very sad story. Keep her and her family in your prayers.

That is terrible, hope she turns up and all is well.

So, in the past year we have had 2 drug overdoses and now a missing student who was last seen with a drug dealer.

I know I am naive when it comes to drugs, but hopefully something will change in the future for the better.

I believe the second student died from complications from diabetes, and not drugs.

I have a friend of a friend who knows this girl and her family. It's not an easy thing to go through. Please, everybody, pray for her safe return. We all have our personal struggles. Just pray that she can get through her's safely and come back to us.

I believe he was referring to the student who died last December and was found his in room at his fraternity house. Regardless, this is a tragedy for the SMU family. Keep her family and friends in your prayers.

The first student was Jacob Stiles who was found dead in one of the rooms of the SAE house in December from a dug overdose. The second student was Jordan Christ who passed away just several weeks ago from complications of diabetes. Meaghan Bosch is the third SMU student to pass away this year, which is certainly a tradgedy.

A tragic end to a tragic tale. My condolences go to her parents and her family and friends.

God thats awful. 3rd time this year SMU has lost a student. And right before her graduation too. I knew she was missing (saw it on FOX 4 news the other night) but just saw she was found dead. What a tragedy. So they think it was some drug dealer who was responsible? I know thousands of kids die every year in college, but in the 4 years I've been here, I can't recall 1 who passed before this school year began. Now we have 3 in less than 6 months. Sad.

My question is when the parents learned she was using cocaine 2 months ago, they took no steps to help her??? Blame is this case only lies with them.

She's above the age of 18 and legally an adult. I've seen parents grieve terribly and try and get help for a child with a coke or crack habit. But ultimately, you can lead a horse to water.... The user has to want to be invested in his or her cure. I suspect that her parents cut her off financially, she got in hock with the dealer who told her pay up, and she couldn't and she ended up killed. Or she just OD'd or had Len Bias heart failure from drug use. Whatever the reason, the parents probably feel enough sorrow and guilt and our prayers should go out to them, not recriminations.

As the brother of an alcoholic that is now dead due to his abuse, I can assure you no matter how hard a friend or relative tries, fault for death by abuse of drugs lies solely with the user.

Authorities executed warrants late Thursday looking for a man in connection with the death of SMU student Meaghan Bosch...Rangers want to talk with James McDaniel, 39, of Dallas. Police suspect he may have sold drugs to Bosch, and it is possible she suffered an overdose from those drugs.
