Target: Michellaya Jansen

<<THIS JUST IN! MICHELLAYA JANSEN, USAF CAPTAIN AND PILOT OF THE UPCOMING INTREPID SPACE SHUTTLE MISSION, SCHEDULED FOR LATER THIS WEEK, WAS FOUND DEAD IN HER APARTMENT. MICHELLAYA, SEEN HERE WITH HER CREW, WAS SCHEDULED TO BOARD THE INTREPID THIS WEEK ON A MISSION TO INITIALIZE REPAIRS ON THE MIR SPACE STATION. POLICE CAME ONTO THE CRIME SCENE FOLLOWING A CALL FROM A NEIGHBOR.>>

<<I HAD SEEN HER LIGHTS ON IN THE APARTMENT AND THOUGHT I WOULD SEE IF SHE WAS UP FOR A DRINK AT "STUCKEY’S" AROUND THE CORNER. I WALKED UP TO HER DOOR AND KNOCKED, WHEN I DID NOT GET A RESPONSE I TRIED THE HANDLE AND FOUND IT WAS UNLOCKED. I OPENED THE DOOR AND CALLED OUT HER NAME, I CALLED A FEW MORE TIMES AND WENT IN TO SEE IF SHE WAS OKAY. SHE WAS VERY GOOD ABOUT HAVING HER DOOR LOCKED, EVEN IF SHE WAS HOME. SHE ALWAYS SAID THE SECURITY AND PRUDENCE WENT HAND IN HAND. ANYWAY I WENT IN AND FOUND HER IN THE KITCHEN LYING IN A POOL OF BLOOD. I RAN TO HER PHONE AND PLACED THE CALL TO THE POLICE. I CAN’T BELIEVE SHE’S DEAD!>>

<<POLICE HAVE NOT RELEASED ANY INFORMATION SURROUNDING HER DEATH, BUT DID SAY THAT SUICIDE WAS NOT RULED OUT. THEY HAVE POSTED THIS PHONE NUMBER FOR ANYONE WHO HAS ANY INFORMATION REGARDING HER DEATH. NOW IT IS OVER TO OUR WEST COAST DESK TO TALK TO TERRY ABOUT SPORT FISHING, TERRY!>>

Even intimations of an affair were brought forward, but speculation still remains as to the exact nature of the relationship. The source has made further claims of having photos of the two together. One of the photos apparently has her passing on technical material regarding the specifications on the B2 Stealth Bomber. Agents at the State and Federal Bureau of Investigation along with members of the NSA have begun an investigation of their own into the death of Michellaya…..
