Death of Mitch McConnell’s billionaire sister-in-law Angela Chao under ‘criminal investigation’ weeks after Texas crash

The death of Sen. Mitch McConnell’s billionaire sister-in-law is being investigated as a crime weeks after her body was pulled from her submerged car in Texas.

Angela Chao, 50, was found dead in her sinking vehicle in a pond on a ranch in Johnson City, near Austin, on Feb. 11.

“Although the preliminary investigation indicated this was an unfortunate accident, the Sheriff’s Office is still investigating this accident as a criminal matter until they have sufficient evidence to rule out criminal activity,” the Blanco County Sheriff’s Office wrote in a Thursday letter to state Attorney General Ken Paxton, according to CNBC.

“This incident was not a typical accident,” the agency added.

First responders spent more than an hour trying to get Chao, CEO of bulk dry shipping giant Foremost Group, out of her vehicle, according to the Austin American-Statesman.

Rescuers stood on top of her car while they tried to break in, the outlet said.

“The deputies were in the water standing on what they believed was the vehicle, trying to gain access to the possible victim inside the vehicle,” fire Lt. Royce Penshorn in the report.

A two-man rescue crew eventually pulled Chao from the car around 12:56 a.m., and EMS responders attempted to resuscitate her for 43 minutes to no avail.

The ranch where Chao died is owned by a corporation connected to her husband, Jim Breyer.

“ I’m wondering if his sister-in-law was killed as a warning: Don’t quit as the Senate Majority Leader: We don’t want anyone but you. ”

You have the sequence wrong.

She was killed, he then said he was quitting.

Amazing how a guy in perpetual government was able to get a major shipping company as a gift from our geopolitical enemy...

His terrible smile looks so forced. Like he’s an alien trying to mimic human emotion.

When you deal with the CCP you either get richer than a foot up a bulls butt or you get dead.

A whole bunch of shady ties to China.

I’m guessing the number of people deserving execution for Treason in DC is higher than I originally thought.

There are a few honest people in DC. A very few.

I think it is more like Mitch failed in his duty to bully that bill for funding Ukraine through the GOP House. I know Mitch is Senator but he has, or had, total influence over the House. He couldn't get the job done. Couldn't get Johnson to cave, so the people that do the influencing of Mitch decided he needed an example of what would happen.

Mitch announced his retirement and now those same people will try to replace him with a new “owned man”. Or else take over his seat with a fraudulent election.

This woman's death was no accident. It was so reminiscent of arkancide.

Stranger than cat sh*t on a ceiling , when you look at the physical location. The ponds, there are two, not easy to drive into, when you see the physical lay out:

https://www.google.ca/maps/place/101+Schneider+Ln,+Johnson+City,+TX+78636,+USA/@30.206448,-98.3223259,190m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m6!3m5!1s0x865b726fbd287699:0xd0ba52cfc9523e20!8m2!3d30.2042923!4d-98.3217197!16s%2Fg%2F11ggsbhmjk?entry=ttu

In my estimation Elaine Chao had become a threat to someone....the question is who?

The ranch address:

101 Schneider Ln, Johnson City, TX 78636

They sometimes refer to water behind the dams as ponds. This is a large property with numerous dams on Miller Creek and might be at least 8 or so ‘ponds’ that are possibilities as far as where she drowned.

Hmmmmm...... difficult to have a “proper investigation” without having possession of the vehicle.
