As of right now, this is only from what I heard:

On July 4th a female diver in her mid 40s died while diving on the
Cypress Point (charter boat) outside of Point Lobos in Monterey.  This
was possibly her second dive of the day to about 100 ft and conflicting
stories claim her bottom time was anywhere from 20 - 30 minutes.
Apparently she had surfaced, signaled to the boat she was ok, and
somewhere between her signaling and swimming to the boat, she lost
consciousness.  It is unclear how long she was out for until someone
noticed her in the water unconscious.  The DM of the boat dove in to get
her, they brought her on board and ran into Whalers Cove where emergency
crews were standing by.  According to my buddy who wittnessed the entire
event from their entrance to the cove, (he wasn't on the boat, so I do
not know the full story) he said that she was pretty dead when they
brought her onshore.

Again, this is so far only what I have heard, once I get further
information, I will post.
