This story is developing. It has been updated with additional details throughout.

The wife of a White house official was found dead in a burnt garage attached to the couple's home on Capitol Hill Monday morning.

The victim was identified as Ashley Turton, a lobbyist for utility giant Progress Energy, former Hill staffer, and the wife of White House Congressional liaison Daniel Turton. Her body was discovered inside a car at the couple's 800 A St. SE residence after responders extinguished an early morning blaze inside the garage.

A veteran Congressional aide who worked most recently as a lobbyist and was married to White House legislative affairs senior official was found dead in her car Monday behind the couple’s Capitol Hill home following a low-speed car crash and subsequent fire.

Ashley Turton, whose husband, Dan, is the White House’s deputy director of legislative affairs for the U.S. House, died in the early-morning incident in the garage behind 800 A Street, NE, friends, her employer and Congressional leadership aides said. City fire and police units responded to the vicinity of the home at about 5 A.M. Monday, according to fire department spokesman Pete Piringer.

I hate to say this, but the DUmp will soon cry out about a right-wing hit job.

Looking at the picture of where they lived is an eye opener.  It looks like they lived almost in the slums.

Did she forget to open the garage door and backed into it, is it likely she would not notice the door was still shut.?

Darn we are loosing some important people to Washington Politics due to some very strange behavior on the part of the victims.    There's John Wheelers death that has completely disappeared from the news and now this strange death.
