The RD article actually seems to cover the just of the incident pretty well.
Over the years, Treadwell, a misguided New York youth turned So Cal beach bum had been warned repeatedly by friends and enemies alike to quit naming the bears, singing to them and violating the 50 yard safety rule established by the NPS for the proctection of both bear and humans. Ignoring rules and warnings this Knothead was repeatedly seen in videos and photos violating the NPS rule and the rules of common sense.
Enter Urus Horriblus (sp?), the ultimate enforcer, with an empty stomach and bad attitude.
As to the girl, she had nowhere to run to! The afore mentioned Knothead had set up camp in the middle of a huge NP, in the middle of an alder thicket ( by the looks of the pictures in RD) with narry any type of a substantial tree to even climb. Oh well, if it wasn't for following this clown she would have probably followed Jim Jones down to Guyana for cookies and Kool Aid.
After hearing her boyfriend being torn apart for 4 or5 min Kool Aid may have started sounding pretty good to her.
