I'm sure many here will roll their eyes at this source: http://www.whatdoesitmean.com/index1687.htm http://www.whatdoesitmean.com/index1687.htm Top US Journalist Attempting To Reach Israeli Consulate Assassinated - By Sorcha Faal But it's an interesting set of dots. The address they give for the Israeli consulate is correct: http://www.israeliconsulatela.org/index.php/en/get-directions http://www.israeliconsulatela.org/index.php/en/get-direction... Which does make it about 9 miles from Hastings' crash site, fwiw. But I'm more interested in identifying the exact crash location, and the direction he was going. In this article: http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/06/21/email-sent-by-michael-hastings-hours-before-his-death-mentions-a-big-story-and-a-need-to-go-off-the-radar/ http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/06/21/email-sent-by-mic... there are two photos of the crash site that should allow location of the exact site using google maps and streetview. Particularly this one: http://www.theblaze.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/600x39998.jpg http://www.theblaze.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/600x39998... It seems to be somewhere sth of the intersection of Highland and Melrose Av, here: https://maps.google.com/maps?q=Highland+and+Melrose+avenues&hl=en&ll=34.082379,-118.338423&spn=0.004417,0.004308&z=18 https://maps.google.com/maps?q=Highland+and+Melrose+avenues&... I've tried, but still can't pinpoint it. From this image: http://www.theblaze.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/600x339.jpg http://www.theblaze.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/600x339.j... I'm wondering if the car clipped the foreground palm tree, then hit the next tree solidly on the front left of the car. So the car ends up spinning to the right, stopping at 90 deg to the street. This would explain why there's little visible damage to the RH side of the car. But not really why the rear damage. If that's so, it must have been traveling away from the camera view point. But is that going Nth or Sth? In either case, it's hard to see how that fits with heading to the Israeli consulate. Someone might like to go and see if there's any shrapnel damage in the road surface anywhere before the impact point.
