Did you see the video posted during the fire? Why did they say the family was accounted for? Did the husband NOT know his wife was going to catch an early plane for the big announcement?

And they say they are treating this as “non-suspiousious”? This woman was murdered. No matter our political differences I may have had with her, she should not have been murdered.

My point was that the explanations don’t seem to make sense. It’s like some of the other situations we have questions about these days.

If the story was plausible, we wouldn’t be addressing it. The explanations are quirky. They don’t pass the sniff test.

It may have been a premeditated murder. Incompetency being what it is these days, it may also just be a dumb ass team working on the case.

I understand the incompetency thing, being they are lowering standards more and more.

But this situation is SCREAMING foul play. Unfortunately, I believe it will be pushed under the rug.

I'm assuming the gold car (Camry?) was there at the time of the incident since the firetrucks are blocking it in. I just don't get how she damaged the radiator in the front unless she was pulling in. Maybe she forgot to open the garage doors before trying to exit?.......but that wouldn't damage the radiator.

Wife of Obama aide found dead in burning car in home’s garage

....D.C. Fire Department spokesman Pete Piringer said firefighters were called to the Capitol Hill row house just before dawn and found a car engulfed in flames. No one else was injured and the fire department said an initial theory they are considering is that there may have been a crash involving the vehicle.

The back end of Mrs. Turton‘s SUV was partly out of the garage as if the vehicle was entering or leaving when the fire started, authorities said.

“The leading theory is [that] the car crashed through the garage doors and … was found on fire in the garage area,” Mr. Piringer said.

I’m not as convinced as you are, but you seem to have seen some footage I didn’t. You may have some other reasons too.

Look, you may be right, and as for the political differences, I agree with you. If someone deserves to die, they should have their day in court first.

I do sympathize with the loss her husband and children are experiencing. I am also sorry this woman won’t get the help raise her children, and see them grow up.

If she was murdered, her and their futures were stolen, and that angers me.

Sorry I can't provide the link, but it is somewhere in this thread.

If you have time look for it, as well as the other link where the family “was accounted for”.

Just weird, aka, premeditated in MHO.

Sad enough if this death was truly an accident, but if she was murdered, someone stole the memory of their mother from those 3 young children.

The oldest child may have a fleeting memory, but the babies will remember nothing.

It breaks my heart.

“Except the 2008 BMX X5 has sealed HALOGEN bulbs.”

Yes - you are correct - Further research confirmed Halogen were standard and Xenon steering linked headlights were optional.

My bad.

Well we share the hope that it won’t be. If foul play was involved, I hope they discover it.

If they discover it, will they share it? Things seem so odd at this point, I doubt we’ll ever know the truth.

Damn shame.

“One of the reports I read said the neighbors were awakened by a racket and called 911”

Yes, they heard “loud popping noises”, looked out the window and saw flames
