The woman who leaped to her death from a Midtown high-rise Sunday was former Miss USA Cheslie Kryst, law enforcement sources told The Post.
Shortly before she jumped, Kryst posted on her Instagram page, “May this day bring you rest and peace.”
This beautiful, young, successful woman - the 2019 pageant winner and 30-year-old lawyer jumped from her luxury 60-story Orion building at 350 W. 42nd St. around 7:15 a.m. and was found dead in the street below, sources said.
Sources said Kryst left behind a note saying she wanted to leave everything to her mother, a former pageant competitor herself who was crowned Mrs. North Carolina in 2002. The note didn’t include a motive for Kryst’s actions.
Well, a fall from a high place is a good and hard to trace assassination technique as well. Most lawyers do have some enemies.
I like a good murder mystery. I not am sure about hard to trace though. The building, I am sure, have cameras. The entrance/lobby probably has security people. I can't find any motives for taking her own life though.

Read this, it explains it all.........IMO, by jumping she destroyed her looks/body, and that was a "dig" to those she called trolls who complained about both.
“Society has never been kind to those growing old, especially women."
“I fought this fight before and it’s the battle I’m currently fighting with 30,” she wrote. “How do I shake society’s unwavering norms when I’m facing the relentless tick of time?
Someone in the prime of youth, convinced that they're "growing old". That's really sad. Apparently her mom was a pageant contestant. I'd say, that mom failed to raise her daughter with values that go beyond the superficial. That's what it sounds like. This is distorted thinking. As a practicing lawyer, she had a lot going for her, and her whole life ahead of her. Really sad.

I also found this shocking. Beautiful, intelligent, successful. Reports are that she may have struggled with mental health issues but even in a media clip, she said she had spoken to a counselor (not sure the time frame).
Just goes to show. You never know what kind of burden someone is carrying.

This bears repeating.
And looking at it from the outside in is almost never going to make sense. We want easy answers, but when depression is involved, the answers will never be easy. I was at my lowest point several years ago after my right leg amputation, but the amputation was not the worst thing happening to me at the time. If I had been successful in an attempt, I'm sure people would have pointed to that as the main or only reason. They would have been wrong. I could not even out into words what was going on in my mind
