Quote: "'We’re treating it as a suspicious death until we determine if it’s a suicide or a homicide,' police Sgt. Paul Flores said."

Note: Of course those aren't the only possibilities. Her clothes may have burst into flame and burned her to death. If so, she wouldn't remotely be the first person to die that way. Specifying the possibilities for you is a psyops tactic used in an attempt to control your thinking. Maybe they're doing it out of ignorance and not purposely, I dunno, but that's what it is...

Quote: "In a horrifying incident, an Andhra woman was burnt alive after the car in which she was travelling caught fire in Visakhapatnam district. The incident happened in the early hours of Thursday, reportedly at Rayavaram mandal. The woman, identified as Nagamani, was with her husband in the car at the time of the incident. The husband managed to escape, after locals reportedly gathered at the spot and pulled him to a safe distance. The locals also tried putting out the fire themselves, but to no avail."

Quote: "Reports suggest that the central locking system of the car failed after the vehicle caught fire, which led to Nagamani's death."

Note: Yesterday it was a mother watching her son burn to death in his car at apartments in Sharonville (Ohio), mentioned in the 2017-04-19 update, and today it's a man watching his wife burn to death in an SUV...
