Did anyone see this?
Two people connected to the Flint water crisis were found dead within days of each other this month — but authorities swear there’s no connection or conspiracy in the tragedies.
A friend found Matthew McFarland, a foreman at Flint’s Water Treatment Plant, dead in his Otter Lake home on April 16, according to MLive.
Just three days later, Sasha Avonna Bell — one of the first people to file a lawsuit over the city’s contaminated water supply — was shot and killed in a double murder.
The day after 19-year-old Bell’s death, the Michigan Attorney General’s office announced the first criminal charges against government officials for the water crisis.
Conspiracy-happy websites, like Natural News, were quick to call the two deaths a “coverup” connected to the ongoing municipal mess.
But police said there is no connection between the deaths, and the timing is coincidental
