The UK press, not known for a dainty approach, is covering the developing (or should that be "unravelling") story of Coudert with no minced words:

• "Coudert in Crisis..." and
• "Living in the Past."

Watching this happen is immensely sad, as it need never have happened. 

Perhaps after the dust settles there will be something positive to take away by way of "lessons learned," or perhaps I'm just grasping at a straw of hope in following a dismal story.
