Her death was confirmed by Gisela Hernandez, spokeswoman for Washington Hospital Health Care System. Hernandez did not say when Matthews died or under what circumstances.
That's from February.

Local noon news just had the video clip of the mourners assembling in front of the estate.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
