When I entered her name in google some small independent articles come up, but its clearly being silenced on all the major networks.

It happened days ago so its not an issue of waiting for the major news outlets to catch on-- its censureship.

Truly, Rest in peace Marine Vlaholic, and good for you for doing what you did.
