This case has a lot of in's and out's that are quite interesting (if you're into sleuthing a bit, especially).

Woman Charged in Hit-and-Run Crash That Killed Holocaust Survivor in Valley Village

So, apparently people are posting security video of this woman's life (she lived in her camper truck, in various places around L.A.)

If you've followed true crime for a while, then you may remember her from an earlier crime (the Manacled Mormon Case):

Manacled Mormon case - Wikipedia

A former beauty queen, this woman is now responsible for what may be the intentional running down of a 91 year old man (who died).

My apologies if this is the wrong place for this crime, or if it is already posted elsewhere - modsnips welcome if so.

The alleged kidnapping of a Mormon missionary in Surrey led to a bizarre sex scandal that became the focus of the world's press 45 years ago. The notorious Manacled Mormon case involved the reputed sexual assault of Kirk Anderson after being abducted outside the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints at Epsom before being driven 200 miles to a cottage in Devon.

On the edge of Dartmoor, three miles from the market town of Okehampton, the ancient stone-built farmhouse with no close neighbours made the perfect hideaway for former Miss Wyoming Joyce McKinney to act out her devious plan to win back her lover. It was inside this modest rental property at Lower Halstock that she was alleged to have held 21-year-old Anderson prisoner for three days in September 1977, handcuffed to the bed and repeatedly forced to have sex with her. She has always maintained the two were in love and that it was consensual.

After fleeing the clutches of his captor and her architect accomplice, Keith May, the 6ft 4in Anderson ran to the police and accused McKinney of kidnapping him and raping him. At the time there was no provision in law for male rape, so after McKinney and May were lured out of hiding and stopped at a roadblock, they were charged with false imprisonment and possessing an imitation firearm.
