It's not a crime in itself, it's just disappointing - I remember being enthralled by her story.
In an interesting side note, was chatting to some friends there, and asked them how easy it would be to slip into the regulated zone, and spend a few nights in Pripyat.
Amusingly, they said the biggest risk would not be the radiation, but the bears. The wildlife continues unchecked, essentially.
It'd be ironic to go to Pripyat and get eaten by a bear.

ok, i don't care much whether she went there alone or not - i like the pics and her wrtiting style
and honestly: i would be more worried about the radiation. i'm sure you can find a place that is "bear safe", but you can't hide from the radiation. but it would be ironic for sure - lol
