There was some NEW NEWS about Michael Hastings Death...Explosions

and I'm sure I saw it in LBN early this morning. But, I can't find the link.

Anyone have the link? or link to the LA Source?

Was it bogus report ..and that's why it disappeared from DU this am? I did search...and can't find.

It sounded interesting. I know that there was a website that had someone claiming that their girlfriend's restaurant had a Camera...and he thought that it was just an "accident" with Hastings speeding. He gave time frame, camera shots and he was saying that his girlfriend's video cam didn't show that there was anything suspicious.

I think it's Russ Baker's Site..which is felt to be CT... So, I read it from a link somwhere but it sounded a little to "disinfo" for me. So, I didn't pay much mind waiting for the LAPD's report to see what they discovered from the Toxicology/Autopsy Report. It's been long enough, thought that LAPD should have released that.

My hope was that Hastings Parents are both Doctors and I believe his brother is also a MD...and I figured the Family would have crawled all over LAPD by this point and not left any stone unturned in finding out the circumstances of how their son died.

Anyway...there's still so much that hasn't been revealed. Why was here there driving at that time in the Morning around 4:00 a.m....and where had he been before the crash? Surely there's GPS on him from before the crash even if his car burned up along with his Cell Phone. Yet it's been awhile ...but, surely enough time that where he was before the crash should have been released by now.

Who knows...but, i'm going over to watch that video now that I have the DU link to the story that was there this a.m. in LBN.

Once you get past the ads on the Local News Video...it's interesting to see the crash from that Camera Angle.

For those DU'ers who can't do the video and need text...check out the comments by the Reporter and go to the LINK to read the rest from the site the reporter has linked to.

It's quite interesting.

I have to admit the RW "Legal Justice" being on it was a flag...

But, surely his death not having a toxicology/autopsy report released at this late time would lead even sane people to question...WHY?

did you read the links to all the stuff she wrote? Does it strike you as the writings of a sane and normal person? Are you really defending her?

I'm still waiting. Seems you don't like her reporting so you popped off about her. But, without some research from you why should I believe YOU over HER?

Show me where she's a RW Nut Job...links that are not some CT stuff and I'll be glad to take a look.

Had he been drinking? Where was he staying (he's from Vermont so he had to have been on a story) and where had he been before he was going "high speed" through a residential neighborhood at 4:00..something that morning?

Why the e-mail before the crash saying he was working on a big story? Shouldn't we know more about this after almost eight weeks?

Yet, folks are saying this reporter is a RW Nut Case... Yet, where is the evidence from other reporters verifying what you are claiming that he was driving at 4:00 a.m. or so and just hit a tree and his car exploded in a FireBall after hitting a Palm Tree?

I'd expect more info about such a High Profile Reporters death in a city he didn't live in.

the story to try and bury Michael Hastings threads on DU.

Some folks want Americans to just ASSUME THE POSITION and swallow the poo.

They do not want questions asked.

But questions must be asked.

We deserve an honest investigation into this highly suspicious event, a possible assassination of an American investigative journalist.

Once again.
