It could be that she was committing suicide via carbon monoxide poisoning, and the running vehicle set things ablaze after she was already out cold. That would be a slightly less unpleasant than directly burning to death.

She probably overheard something that she was not suppose to, or other wise became informed of info that she was not suppose to, and one of the alphabet police agencies had her " taken care of. " :shock:

Hmmmm, maybe she heard that on 12-21-12 the world was going to explode. :roll:
