Developing story: house fire and explosion in Rockville, MD ( pizzagate )

submitted by abcdefg222

Developing story. Could be unrelated but worth looking into because of the close proximity to D.C. And the unknown cause for the "explosion."

Strangely enough there was another home "explosion" on this same street in this same area in 2011.

There was another explosion on March 2. Another Thursday night. Rockville, next to Rock Creek. 71-year-old D.C. accountant was killed.

This pattern of 'exploding houses' in Maryland, close to Washington smells of a huge rat...quickest and easiest way to get rid of evidence for those involved in #pizzagate...no question...too coincidental!!!

Well this story just made my local news. Nothing sinister reported, just that they are waiting for further information.

edblings

so i just read the article, which states that they were divorced in 2013 i believe, how is it that this woman has a toddler with her ex-husband that she divorced 5 years ago? we don't call 5+ year olds toddlers. also, 7 kids? one was already in the car as if the mother maybe was getting them out of the house.. 2 adults found? thought they got a divorce..? nothing is adding up with this story fellas

Vigilia_Procuratio

That's a separate story which looks a very disturbing case of a man gone mad.

This is about a house going boom for what are, at this time, unbeknown reasons.

edblings

oh, guess i wasn't paying good enough attention

carmencita

Did I miss something? Was she arrested before? If she was found dead at the scene why is there a mugshot of her? Too many questions. A 5 yr old had been allowed to leave the house, and found outside before? Possibly trying to escape? This could just be a desperate woman that could not solve her problems. But it seems she had reason to really fear this abuser. If he abused her and the kids, then he could have sexually abused them as well. Maybe it was too much for her. Seems he got off too light on that slapping charge too, while she was pregnant.

Gas Not Likely a Cause of the Blast, Fire Chief Says

That's rather interesting.

Can anybody pull up a local helicorder for this? I'll have a look myself, no guarantees though. Scrap that, it's not showing up.

Vigilia_Procuratio

This would appear to be the house of concern...

Google shows the number 11488 for whatever reason, but that is actually 11422 which is what this article says...

Ah, okay so that is highly likely to be the house. See this image, see the jeep, now look at the Google Maps link again and look behind to see what I can only assume to be that very vehicle...

i upvoated you and yet it shows as +0/-0

jsllsjsllsj

Thats ok no worries

edblings

holy shit... the kids rebelled against their captors? (speculation of course) thoughts?

edit: so i just read the article, which states that they were divorced in 2013 i believe, how is it that this woman has a toddler with her ex-husband that she divorced 5 years ago? we don't call 5+ year olds toddlers. also, 7 kids? one was already in the car as if the mother maybe was getting them out of the house.. 2 adults found? thought they got a divorce..? nothing is adding up with this story fellas

The block of "11400 Ashley Drive" has had a fair few issues according to this list :

  • Mental Transport @ 0933 on 25th Dec 2016
  • Missing Person @ 1055 on 28th Dec 2016
  • Mental Transport @ 0815 on 15th Feb 2017

Finally, google maps link .

The blue & white kidnapper van on the block is very ominous. Three calls for service to the police department over the course of a six week period is also rather alarming.

Vigilia_Procuratio

I do wonder if a fair few of those incidents could relate to one person - 11300 Schuylkill Road has several missing/transport entries as well although they appear to be a runaway child. It could be that the little guy is a prolific car thief as there sure seems to be problems around there with cars and buses being stolen, as well as cases of battery, but maybe that's just an average night in Bethesda. Looking at that list, though, a few of those incidents would probably make national news in Britain, so who knows if it was a gas accident, drugs factory or some sort of attack.

DopeandDiamonds

The link to the police calls is misleading. They are listed by block not specific address. The link lists the calls to that block, not that house. If this house were number 11400, the article would have stated it was at the corner of the street not "near Grayling Ln" since 11400 would be the beginning of a new block.

neurofluxation

Ah I see, I wasn't aware of that. I'll leave the information there though - because that is a bit odd anyway. I'v amended it.

DopeandDiamonds

Leave it. You never know what will turn up.

Vigilia_Procuratio

I don't get the connection. Were the occupants baking a pizza and it went very horribly wrong?

Or were they about to incriminate the Big Bad Don and their gas boiler was hit by a DEW?

Is it a threat against people who burrow too far into the rabbit hole, like "shut up or this happens"?

Basically, unless somebody knows the street and/or occupants and can adequately state as fact that they were, say, investigating Pizzagate, then it's nothing more than your typical gas blast. Or they were manufacturing heroin.

Humming_bird

too many coincidental home 'explosions'...higher than statistically predictive!

abcdefg222

I have zero proof that it's related. But it's in the D.C. Area and the details are still sketchy. Just a heads up for my fellow investigators. That's all.

Vigilia_Procuratio

That's fair enough. My take on this has gone from most likely not related to PG in any way, shape or form, to... likely not related but any info is info and this could be some kind of info.

Vigilia_Procuratio

Fair enough. I think I just pulled up the house on Google Maps, I'll make a new sub-comment for it.

carmencita

Possible eradication of evidence. No one knows yet. Some have happened already. We will have to wait until we hear more. Maybe yes, maybe no.

Vigilia_Procuratio

Well I guess that's the suspicion, but we could pull up any report and claim it's linked.

Somebody hanged themself? Not if they hanged themself twice they didn't.

Somebody died of natural causes? Obviously it was in a police cell then.

Don't get me wrong, for all we know there could be something really dodgy about this incident, but the first guess in anything like this is a normal gas blast (cooker left on, a leak or simply a dodgy boiler), second to that is drugs - relating it to Pizzagate is far-fetched unless there's something to back it up, which there apparently isn't unless somebody can show it.

carmencita

Correct. But at this point we just have to wait. If they call in the ATF then there is reason for suspicion. We will see. I admit more than likely this could be nothing.

DopeandDiamonds

I disagree with the thinking that the ATF becoming involved would be a sign of something.

There was a gas explosion in my area at the home of an older couple. The explosion occurred several hours after a work crew installed a new gas line to a dryer. No one was injured though it did destroy the home. The ATF investigated from the beginning though it was a clear an accident.

I was puzzled as to why they were investigating. I later learned it was because we are in a rural area and our fire department is all volunteer and unable to launch an investigation to the insurance company's standard to cover the loss of the home.

I think that the ART has to justify their budget and gets involved when they are not asked as well. We shall see with this.

carmencita

Not all situations of the govt. being called in are ways to account for their work. Sometimes there are real reasons for them being called in. This may be one of them.

DopeandDiamonds

Oh of course. I did not intend to say it was an accross the boat statement.

Vigilia_Procuratio

That's a fair point on ATF, but would it be reported or is it automatically available to the public if they get involved in a case? I suppose they'd deal with drug factories as well, especially if they go boom?

carmencita

Well there was a large fire that destroyed the Bogey Hills Country Club in the St. Charles Mo. area about 2-3 weeks ago. The entire place was destroyed and the Fire Chief called in the ATF. They are not usually called unless there is a high suspicion of arson. But they deemed it was not. Ha. Ha. Yeah, they were mostly at the rear of the building and the fire was just very fast and furious. If I find the story will try to post link. This imo, and that of Wolftrail7272 was arson to erase evidence.

Vigilia_Procuratio

Well now that I've seen the police chief being quoted as saying it wasn't a gas blast, it's therefore of a suspicious nature. Going by this, one might expect that the ATF have at least had a report land on their desks.
