claim: In July 2017, the body of a 26-year-old woman was found in the burned-out remains of a property owned by Bill and Hillary Clinton.
origin: On 12 July 2017, the Flash News Corner web site published a falseÂ storyÂ claiming that authorities in upstate New York had found the body of a 26-year-old waitress in the burned-out remains of a guest house owned by Bill and Hillary Clinton.Â < The body pulled from the complete devastation of the Clinton Estate guest house in Chappaqua, New York has been identified as 26-year-old Melinda Hagliarty of Ossippee, a town just down the road. How she got into the Clintonsâ€™ guest home and why she ended up dead are still unknown.Â > The story is entirely fabricated and offers no evidence to support its claims â€“ there are no statements from police, despite the claim that the woman had been reported missing; the Coroner is not given a jurisdiction or named; and the town of Ossippee is in New Hampshire, almost 300 miles from Chappaqua, New York, not â€œjust down the road.â€ In a disclaimer on its web site, Flash News Corner describes itself as a â€œsatirical publication.â€ < FlashNewsCorner.com is a satirical publication that may sometimes appear to be telling the truth. We assure you thatâ€™s not the case. We present fiction as fact and our sources donâ€™t actually exist. > Dozens of deaths have now been fabricated and linked to the Clinton estate in upstate New York since Hillaryâ€™s unsuccessful 2016 presidential campaign. The Flash News Corner article is just the latest in a litany of deaths that have been invented or falsely tied to either Bill or Hillary Clinton, over the past few decades.Â Â
