Edit: The admins have told me if I don't say this was an accident then they will remove the post.
It's is verifiably an accident. It is also extremely convenient for the people she threatened.

I should have put over 97%. But yeah for a generalized tonic-clonic seizure lasting longer than 5 minutes is called "status epilepticus" and that is a risk of lasting injury and thus warrant intervention. Just not the kind that bystanders are able to provide.
Yup, probabilities are not independent and if those clusters of seizures happen minutes to hours from each other, the risk of injury increases further. Also, with more and longer seizures the epilepsy tends to become increasingly harder to manage. But epilepsy comes in many shapes and forms so it depends on the specific kind. The adults who die of epilepsy usually don't die "unexpectedly" meaning they have certain comorbidities that increase the risk of dying (e.g. heart disease), etc.
