Journalist Michael Hastings, who was killed in a fiery Los Angeles crash in June, died of "traumatic injuries" as a result of the accident and had traces of drugs in his system, Los Angeles coroner's officials said Tuesday.
Hastings, 33, died June 18 in a single-vehicle accident. His car burst into flames and he was pronounced dead at the scene.
Coroner's officials said Hastings had traces of amphetamine in his system, consistent with possible intake of methamphetamine many hours before death, as well as marijuana. Neither were considered a factor in the crash, according to toxicology reports.

Why don’t you just come out and say what you want to say instead of making weird cryptic comments?
Got it. Another coincidence.It’s in the coroner’s report.
MEMO: The "coroner’s report" is easily manipulated as is the so-called "investigation: as well as the so-called family intervention for a supposed "drug-relapse." The official players have NO credibility.
If you are going to quote me, do not insert comments into my quote that I did not make. That is shady behavior that doesn’t belong on FR.
I missed a quotation mark. My bad. "METH". Didn't you coin that descriptor upthread or elsewhere?
So you admit, the “like a tank mortar” description was just your own personal insinuation, and that no actual witness described the event in those terms?
So you admit you lied about my quote?
I admit I wasn't at the scene of the humungous fireball that incinerated Hastings' car so that in the aftermath it appeared to have been hit by tank mortar.
Don’t say “we” like I am included in your delusions, buddy. I remember you and some other wackos...the vehicle fire wasn’t inexplicable, except in your own deluded fantasy.
Fair enough. That's "WE" whose kneepads *aren't* worn from alibiing and apologizing on behalf of the State's fantasy narrative for the inexplicable, improbable and impossible.
Then you can point me to a witness that confirms that the feds were actually questioning people Hastings knew, as Hastings claims? Should be simple enough, since you KNOW that it is true, right?
Nice case. We'll also just ignore and sanitize Hastings' own revelations to others, the cratered hulk of metal, the unauthorized Cremation of Hastings body, motive of The Regime, AND a thoroughly dis-credited, collusive and corrupt system of players.
I presume the rest of your defense "case" is as follows: "You have no Eyewitnesses to THIS, nor can you prove Vince Foster didn't commit suicide by shooting himself in the back of the head. TWICE."
No it shouldn't. Up and down the food chain credibility no longer exists. Yet, we are being asked -- nay demanded by some -- including the authorities to fully accept this entire Hastings narrative and "accidental" aftermath on its face value.
“Got it. Another coincidence.”
Nothing coincidental about it. It’s perfectly logical, but you haven’t bothered to even ask me about it before deciding it is some confirmation of your delusional fantasy.
“MEMO: The “coroner’s report” is easily manipulated as is the so-called “investigation: as well as the so-called family intervention for a supposed “drug-relapse.” The official players have NO credibility.”
Yes, I think I see how it works. Any source that conflicts with your delusion is not credible. That’s not crazy, at all.
“I missed a quotation mark. My bad.”
No, you inserted a comment of yours inside of a quote from me in a very misleading way.
“”METH”. Didn’t you coin that descriptor upthread or elsewhere?”
No, the article that we are all commenting on mentions meth, right there in the excerpt. I guess the journalist is another cog in the vast conspiracy!
“So you admit you lied about my quote?”
How so? You said the thing exploded like a tank mortar hit it, and I asked you to clarify as to whether any witnesses described it like that, or if that was your own delusional description of the event. Where did I lie?
“Nice case. We’ll also just ignore and sanitize Hastings’ own revelations to others...”
No, I’m not trying to ignore it, I’m trying to VERIFY it. If his account is true, it should be simple to VERIFY, like by producing a witness who say “Yes, the FBI did contact me in the days before Hastings’ death”. Can you produce such a witness, or shall we say that Hastings’ story remains UNVERIFIED?
The cabal has teams of disinformation spreaders on “social media” and forums. They invent stuff and spread it as though it were known, proven fact with supporting evidence. I never read that he had had a drug problem, or that his family was gathering for some kind of intervention. I have not read everything admittedly, but did read every article I saw for the few weeks after it happened.
I find it interesting that the info (?) about his family wanting an intervention for his drug habit was released not by the family (who had requested NO CREMATION and were denied - the FAMILY!!) but by the coroner’s office. And not months ago, but very recently. Sure needs corroboration. And Hastings certainly does not look like a tweaker; there are very few if any “casual” meth users, they become addicts almost instantly and turn into strange creatures right away.
The coroner’s office got the message when Breitbart was killed and the coroner poisoned with arsenic. They like to live, too.
USS Johnston: No it shouldn't. Up and down the food chain credibility no longer exists. Yet, we are being asked -- nay demanded by some -- including the authorities to fully accept this entire Hastings narrative and "accidental" aftermath on its face value.
Truer words were never spoken. NOT ONE DAMNED THING the government says at this point should be taken as is and swallowed whole.
Nutjob list? Now Hastings was a tweaker???
Not necessarily. The coroner said he found traces of "amphetamine in his system, consistent with possible intake of methamphetamine". That statement is entirely subjective as the coroner did not find methamphetamine specifically.
Amphetamine can come in many forms, many of which are legal and thus do not fall under the same classification as meth which, as we know, is an illegal street drug.
I know a presstitute wrote that —I mean I read the coroner’s report and I did not see “meth” written in that *report*.
How is that unclear?
I did get a link to a two-page coroner’s report and did not see that word in there, nor a reference to a meth chemical analogue.
I meant that the insinuation of the statement by the coroner’s office about the family wanting intervention for drug habits, and the traces etc are stated in such a way as to make it seem as though he was a meth head.
I am sure he was not. I’ve seen the real ones.
The full coroner’s report is a 17 page pdf, so you must have just seen an excerpt. In the tox screening, they tested for methamphetamines and got a positive result for amphetamines, in both the test of bile and chest blood.
OK, yeah, I got just the first two pages.
Thank you.
Exactly. Traces can enter the system in many ways but this leftist reporter implies the man was a tweaker. I have always believed there is more to this story and I believe that more now.
At this point in time not even the scraps should be taken seriously from ANY official within 0dinga's Admin. They lie big; they lie small; wall-to-wall lies.
Let's not forget how "official reports" are often scripted for political reasons. Even wrapped in a little bow-tie titled, 'Coroner’s Report'.
Bears repeating. A few of them are trying REAL hard in the Hastings case.
I never read that he had had a drug problem, or that his family was gathering for some kind of intervention. I have not read everything admittedly, but did read every article I saw for the few weeks after it happened.
Better late than never. /s
I find it interesting that the info (?) about his family wanting an intervention for his drug habit was released not by the family (who had requested NO CREMATION and were denied - the FAMILY!!) but by the coroner’s office. And not months ago, but very recently.
None of this tapestry of oddities is "interesting" for shills and supporters of the 'Official Report' is it?
The coroner’s office got the message when Breitbart was killed and the coroner poisoned with arsenic. They like to live, too.
THAT is interesting. The shills for his "Official Report" would ask you for damnable "proof"...then carry on their mission of spreading disinformation.
