Her death comes just days after Rep. Casten, 50, said he had ‘tremendous pride’ in Gwen after she took the initiative to organize a ‘Stop the Bleed’ training at her school so that children could learn how to pack a gunshot wound during a school shooting.

RIP girl ......
But another vaxxx victim? Another vaxxident? We will probably never know.
The two Biebers are vaxxx victims. Justin, while his wife had a brain aneurysm from a blood clot.

“The suburban Chicago Democrat’s office said that the Casten family requests privacy after Gwen passed away without providing further details about her death.”

So, they can’t tell us THAT, but they can make up MILLIONS of phony/marginal ‘Covid’ deaths to keep the panic going the past few years?

Seems legit.

What a dreadful motley piece of journalism this is. It’s painful to read, and it isn’t very informative.

Nothing gets done until a politician loses a family member.

Casten was big on pushing vaccines for children, age 12, and up, IIRC.

Elected officials dont merit privacy when when what they are hiding can impact everyone.

They are requesting the family be given privacy after the far left and their “media” toads turned the shooting at Uvalde into a RAT election campaign sh*t show. Politician families deserve privacy while Mexican families get to grieve at a circus put on by the far left “media” jackasses and their bottom feeding RAT massahs.

… his wife had a brain aneurysm from a blood clot.

I know the vaccines are the only reason people have medical problems, but an aneurysm from a clot?

How does that work?

You are a mean person, suspecting the worst about a person with no basis other than speculation.

Agree. The sadness of this situation supersedes politics. A young woman with her entire life ahead of her is gone.

At 17... yes, it sounds like a suicide.

With teen girls, the most common method is overdose, as I recall.

It could be different now.

Here is my wild-A$$ speculation. She was the child of a politician who used her as a prop throughout her life. Her brain got scrambled and she could not take it anymore

Downers Grove did NOT used to be a Democrat district. Disappointing trend in Illinois.
