Woman burned alive on Texas roadside in ritzy neighborhood: police
Fox News ^ | 10/11/2023 | Rebecca Rosenberg

Firefighters made a grisly discovery last month when they found a woman burning alive on the side of an Austin, Texas, road in an upscale suburb – and the victim's devastated family told Fox News Digital they are still trying to comprehend the "incredible loss."

The scorched remains of Melissa Davis, 33, were discovered near the intersection of Mesa Drive and Cat Mountain Drive a little after 5 a.m. Sept. 29 by firefighters who were responding to a 911 call of a grassfire, according to the Austin Police Department.

"It’s an incredible loss for all of us," said Davis's stepmother Mary Anne Castles. "We're all going through a difficult time and just trying to wrap our heads around this."

I hope they didn't burn her during a red flag alert.

"Davis is originally from Fort Knox, Kentucky, and comes from a military family. She earned a bachelor's degree in anthropology and a master's in international sustainable tourism from the University of North Texas, according to her obituary."

Army brat, garbage degree, loner with a dog (Dudley apparently survived) ... could be swipe-right victim or something more heinous.

Cartel hit ... yeah, that’s my first thought as well.

OK ... in this depraved and perverse age, I must ask: Was the deceased a genuine, “XX” woman?

Because if she was not ... other possibilities come to mind.

“Police found a lighter on the ground and “smelled a strong odor of accelerant” near the charred body, the warrant says.”

No occipital ridge, no man hands, facial features proportionality correct -- very notable in the 'duckface' selfie pic (barf) in the final pic on the FoxNews article... Yeah, she's "XX". Good question, though.

The last “burning” case I remember was the work of an African American suitor of a young white woman (Jessica Chambers in MS). Seemed to be an AA thing. Might not be in this case, but detectives should look closely at any such connections.

If suicide, one would think that there are less painful ways to go....

Austin soft on crime and defunding the police. this projected weakness gave someone the idea that the odds where in there favor to get away with this.
Not to long a woman was found shot to death in her car on a service road.
Austin is a puss pocket on the butt of Texas.
