Catwalk accessible, but unused, at Conexus Arts Centre when Slaferek died
Jaidan Slaferek did. The 17-year-old fell from about 40 feet up.
The night she died — Jan. 15, 2012 — Stubbings was posted at the security staff entrance behind the stage. He was turning off the house lights above the seats when he heard sounds coming from near the darkened stage.
He went to see who was there. Stubbings found two panicked young men on a stairwell backstage.
He asked what they were doing and told them they weren’t allowed on the stage.
