Don't the Macs laptops have the magnetic power supply connectors?

Where does it say it was a Mac? :confused: I think the photo is a stock.

And yes, Mac laptops do have magnetic power supply connectors.

That must be a horrible site to see for the parents though, imagine that sight. The water probably still bubbling from the electrolysis and her body slightly starting to decompose (probably happens faster in water that's being electrified)

Voltage has no part in the lethality of electricity. Current has the final say. That would be I for all you Ohm's law freaks. Our skin, which has a fairly low resistance of 1000 to 1500 ohms is not that great at preventing the lethal current to stop the heart.

Though voltage is what convinces the current to flow. :p
And skin resistance seems to change quite a bit, depending on which skin you're using (heels vs fingertips, for example), and on how wet the skin is. Right now, finger to finger, I'm getting a reading of between 600k and 900k. Measuring on the back of my hand though, it is >40M, which is the max range of this meter.
