It has been almost three weeks since BuzzFeed reporter Michael Hastings was killed in a fiery car crash in Los Angeles, yet important details about his death are still unknown.
XETV-TV in San Diego is investigating the mysterious car accident to find answers regarding the award-winning journalist’s sudden death. Hastings is best known for his 2010 Rolling Stone bombshell story that forced Gen. Stanley McChrystal to resign as commander of U.S. forces in Afghanistan.
XETV-TV details what we know about Hastings’ death so far:

Story still simmering. .
There is no such thing as a “2013 Mercedes CLK” at all, and the CLK250 hasn’t been around for a few years.
Mercedes probably spends more research and development money on safety then any other car company. And this has got to p*ss them off royally. I could see them investigating this and even uncovering what really happened. But then some Mercedes execs might have their own fiery crashes...
Mercedes also has many gov't contracts that would be in jeopardy if they pushed too hard....
Mexican TV stations. Doing the job the American Media just refuses to do.
Ain't that the truth and if it's not Mexican tv it's UK newspapers telling us what's going on in our own country. How disgustingly shameful is the media in this country.
You are right. I’ve had two Mercedes and there is no way in the world they are going to mysteriously explode. One of the safest cars on the road.
Leads one to believe the accident scene was staged...8 - 10 weeks for toxicology reports?
Hastings sent that email saying “I’m going off the radar for a while.”
At 4am what compass direction was he traveling?
Was he rushing to LAX airport to catch a flight out of town around 6 or 7am?
Didn’t Wikileaks announce “Hastings contacted us the day he died?” Perhaps Hastings was headed to meet them in a foreign city, where he’d be “off the radar.”
The Ostapo would’ve bombed him or droned him in a hurry, since once he’s in the airport, they’d have to poison him or something “subtle.” Chasing him across the USA/Europe is difficult compared to LA.
Plus, the Marxists apparently control the LA Coroner office, since they got away with killing Breitbart AND arsenic-poisoning the damn Coroner Tech (Michael Cormier) who dropped dead within hours of his office releasing the Breitbart autopsy report to the public.
No updates on “arsenic-poisoned Coroner” folks? I guess that’s an everyday event. Won’t see that story on Unsolved Mysteries anytime soon.
Some witness said the Hastings car suddenly fishtailed. They could’ve remotely locked one front wheel (via ABS) while opening the throttle all the way. That would cause a fishtail. Waiting until he was traveling 50 or 60 mph would make a crash likely.
But instead of all this “NSA hacking the engine-management chip” stuff, any jackass could just stick some explosives in the dashboard and then trigger via remote control if Hastings made a move (like calling Wikileaks then rushing toward the airport) that NSA didn’t feel would brush Obama’s magic carpet the right way.
Well that and the fact that the engine ended up way down the street from the car. Whuz up with that? :-)
Hastings was speeding Southbound (toward LAX) at 4:30am when he crashed.
I lived in LA. The whole town dies at 2am sharp because the bars are legally required to shut down at that point.
At 4:30am, the only thing moving in Los Angeles is the hospital and the airport.
If you are trying to catch an early flight at 6 or 7am, you would hurry to the airport at 4:30am like Hastings was doing.
Especially if your flight is international and you MUST leave enough time to guarantee you won’t miss it. That’s how to “go off the radar for awhile” when you think FBI is investigating you — fly to a foreign country with your laptop and work from there.

CNN Airs Never Before Seen Michael Hastings Interview: ‘I Wish I’d Had A Few Thousand More Words’
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqo4pu4wN5c
July 7, 2013 - CNN’s Reliable Sources guest host John Avlon aired excerpts of a never-before-seen interview he and his wife conducted of now-deceased journalist Michael Hastings and his wife Elise Jordan last summer, in which Hastings spoke candidly about his career-making piece on General Stanley McChrystal, and the loss of his girlfriend in the Iraq War.
More under the video
Also, a few nights after the 4:30am Hastings crash, 2 police officers return to the nearby police station garage approx 4am, and as they reach out their car window to swipe their access card in the driveway, somebody runs up behind their unmarked police car and starts firing a gun into their car, grazing both officers.
Did that story die yet, or are we waiting for George Stephanopoulos to announce “Nothing to see here?”
Think about it. Those 2 cops were probably on shift when the crash occurred, since they apparently work at 4am.
Maybe they saw or heard something, so somebody wants them dead too.
But killing them SEPARATELY at their separate houses the same week would raise all sorts of flags bc what are the odds of that happening by chance? So they were attacked at a place and time they were #1 guaranteed to show up (end of their shift back at police HQ), and #2 guaranteed to be together (so they wouldnt need to be killed separately, raising even more suspicion).
Reminds me of LA Coroner tech, Michael Cormier, who dropped dead of arsenic poisoning the day his office released the Breitbart autopsy report.
Before it’s all over, they’ll tell us 270 witnesses are lying and the Mercedes crashed after bad wiring “caused the center fuel tank to explode.”
It’s a warning to other reporters. Something like “yeah, we made it that obvious just to show all of you we can do it and get away with it.”
Yep.
