Michael Hastings researching Jill Kelley case before death

WASHINGTON – During the weeks before he was killed in a car crash in Los Angeles, reporter Michael Hastings was researching a story about a privacy lawsuit brought by Florida socialite Jill Kelley against the Department of Defense and the FBI.

Hastings, 33, was scheduled to meet with a representative of Kelley next week in Los Angeles to discuss the case, according to a person close to Kelley. Hastings wrote for Rolling Stone and the website BuzzFeed.

Kelley alleges that military officials and the FBI leaked her name to the media to discredit her after she reported receiving a stream of emails that were traced to Paula Broadwell, a biographer of former CIA director David H. Petraeus, according to a lawsuit filed in Federal District Court in Washington, D.C., on June 3.

* I think Hastings thought Jill innocent and abused by government, I don’t think so.

I have kicked several ideas around but she’s a plant in my opinion...

Add car-into-palm-tree to the list of possible “suiciding” methods.

Jill likes to see her name in the newspapers. She’s claiming this for the publicity.

Interesting, eh? She may be an odd duck but the entire Petraeus mess was odd and full of unanswered questions.

Far left anti-hero Redford made that movie to discredit the US at the height of the Cold War.

It was entertaining, but propaganda to be sure.

Well, yeah, but we’re still not a police state, because the police haven’t been caught.

Or suicide by hacked onboard computer chip, which can affect control of the vehicle.

Depends on what kind of vehicle he was driving, i guess.

Just because I in the middle of nap momentarily confused Jill Kelly with Colleen Kelly. Surely they aren’t related.

Sure wish Petraeus would come forward and tell all. Congress needs to subpoena him.
