Rest in peace Misti and my deepest condolences to Dr. Epstein.

My first reaction was "no way, no how" this is waaaay too suspicious!

Unfortunately, she was driving a Ford Ranger on slick surfaces and what killed her was a tractor trailer in a different lane. That would be pretty hard to orchestrate (not saying it couldn't be engineered). Ford Rangers are great little trucks but I won't own them because I live where crappy slippery roads are commonplace.

Notwithstanding, the number of people who reveal Democrat & Clinton corruption who end up getting killed, or their loved ones do, should be painstakingly investigated to the n'th detail!! All methods, data sets, procedures and alternate conclusions should be made public. These events are so far outside of statistically normal (or at least, blatantly appear so) that more damage is done to the political conversation by not doing thorough public investigations.

Can Ford Rangers be remotely controlled?

Great question and precisely why the death of, or related to, any individual who is investigating and exposing corruption must be handled with the utmost level of integrity and transparency.

For example, let's say the ABS system on the new Rangers have an exploitable vulnerability. Her route to work was easy to discover and let's assume that's what she was doing on that road at 8:05 AM on a Monday. The combination of the two (exploit+opportunity) certainly leads to suspicion.

Without a trustworthy authority to examine these cases it's understandable to assume assassination.

It would be possible for the ABS system to selectively engage specific wheels in order to destabilize the vehicle, but I don't know how advanced the systems are in this truck, or if they can even be accessed remotely.

One could theoretically manipulate the throttle control and the brakes (via the ABS module) but if the steering is still linked directly to the rack, the driver would easily keep directional control, as they are not designed to override driver input.

were the roads actually slippery that night? Wasn't there a divider for oncoming traffic? I don't think anything should be taken at face value.
