Leading the inquiry is the county sheriff’s office in Texas.
“Chao, 50, was taken out of an automobile that had crashed into a pond on a private property in Johnson City, Texas, some 40 miles from Austin, and found dead just after midnight on February 11.”
The Blanco County Sheriff’s Office wrote to Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton on Thursday, stating, “This situation was not an ordinary accident.”
Authorities first gave the impression that this was a straightforward accident, but they suddenly sound suspicious in their letter to Texas AG Ken Paxton:
The letter stated, “The Sheriff’s Office is continuing to investigate this tragedy as a criminal matter until they have sufficient proof to rule out criminal behavior, even though the first inquiry suggested this was a sad accident.”
Late in February, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) declared that he would stay in the Senate but relinquish his leadership position in November.
McConnell included his late sister-in-law in his announcement, even though he stated it was time to move on.
“McConnell mentioned the passing of his wife’s sister as the reason for reflection, but he did not give a clear explanation for the timing of his choice, which he had been thinking about for months. “It’s getting closer to the conclusion of my contributions than I would like,” McConnell remarked.
Chao was married to Jim Breyer, a venture capitalist.
In the meantime, authorities are keeping quiet and not disclosing much information.
“The Blanco County Sheriff’s public information officer informed the attorney general that reports, 911 records, audio and video evidence, as well as other data, should not yet be disclosed to media outlets that sought them, including CNBC, as Chao’s death is still the focus of a criminal investigation.”
As of right now, this tale is still classified as a “mystery,” and it is hard to determine what role Mitch McConnell may have played in it. However, we are aware that a woman passed away, and we offer prayers for her and her family.
