"Woman in leading Flint water crisis lawsuit slain in twin killing"

"A woman at the center of a bellwether Flint water crisis lawsuit was one of two women who were shot to death inside a townhouse earlier this week."

Sasha Avonna Bell was one of the first of a growing number of people to file a lawsuit in connection to the Flint water crisis after she claimed that her child had been lead poisoned.

What an unfortunate coincidence.

Broken clock theory proven true again

Flint has voted for Dems for 84 straight yrs. What did it get us? For 18 months Dems remained silent &ignored pleas while Flint was poisoned

The Real Tragedy In Flint*

Every Democrat in the country is calling for Gov. Snyder’s head and blaming it on the Republican governor and his emergency financial manager law. And not only are they ignoring the guys in the black hats who actually caused the problem, they’re really ignoring the victims. Worse, they’re using them as a tool to gain a political advantage. And that’s [an] even larger tragedy.
That’s not what Flint’s children need right now. People need to focus on them, and not on their hatred of all things Republican. Read the whole thing

That is from the best piece yet that I've read about the Flint tragedy. It's still a little early for the science and technical journals like Chemical & Engineering News to have weighed in. I did wade into the comments over there at the link, trying to correct an over-zealous commenter regarding the oxidation states of lead.
