'56 Tragic Death of Mildred Anne Reynolds

"Very tragic death of Mildred Reynolds. Speculation is of course a little false as decisive information may be known to law enforcement but not the public. Although, certainly appearing suspicious, definite proof of murder, which one would expect to find, is missing, and proclaimed evidence - blows to her head and shoulders, "criminal" (or attempted) assault, tire tracks of another vehicle forcing her off the road - remain unproven under further examination. Her actions strike me as more consistent with a freak accident than being forced off the road or threatened with a firearm.

Mildred Reynolds could have been taken ill, attempted to turn back to Alva, making a 3-point turn far too fast - if she fainted, her foot, a dead weight on the accelerator. She could have taken out her bag, bleeding a little from striking her face against the windscreen or steering wheel, lost a shoe, then returned to the car as brake fluid exploded. Have there been further developments in the following half century?" -- Rhys Pidgeon - Email: rhysandjan@ozemail.com.au
