The manhole cover had bolts but no lock. But your other point is
exact. It is also instructive that they knew exactly who it was when
there was almost no way to recognize her.

Here I disagree, though I would have agreed earlier. From all reports
Stacy was a compliant scientologist. Also she was not wearing RPF
garb. The timing also supports this being a hatted operation. As
someone mentioned, any problem which requires "handling" takes about
three weeks for a policy to be drafted and go back down the chain of
command. It was about three weeks from the time the first ground
squirrel got into the wires. I think Stacy was picked for the task of
going into a hot vault because she was small and a wooden (non
conducting) ladder was used because the policy said "inspect for
ground squirrels" or "check the screens for being in place" without
the step of "turn off the power." I don't think there was any intent
for her to go to the bottom of the ladder. What happened, as Arel
pointed out, was that the 6 foot ladder could not be opened very well
hanging from someone's hand in the 8 foot deep vault. Not being fully
opened, it was unstable resulting in Stacy falling off the ladder into
the wires as she tried to get on the ladder through the manhole.
As long as you didn't fall of the ladder, going part way down a ladder into the vault to get a look at the rodent screens would be seen as a fairly safe thing to do.
The other point is that the vault was hot enough from the transformer losses, typically 3 percent of rating or about 1500 watts, that the heat would kill someone in a few hours. I am inclined to think the local "chain locker" was elsewhere.

The call to the fire department (which I have) was by the ambulance
company. The original call from Gold was to an ambulance company, not
911. Those calls are not public records, which means you have to get
a subpoena to get them. They are likely erased by now.

This is not only inherently creepy, it goes against the other points in the
shore story - that they didn't know where she was since she hadn't shown up
for her shift.

I think this newsgroup should adopt Stacy Moxon psot humously since she obviously never had a father while alive.
