We regret to report to you that a well-known advocate for autistic people - Jeana Beck - died approximately November 17th near an Oregon hotel room where she had been staying. Beck was the founder of Unlocking Autism and was traveling with her 23-year-old autistic son for a work trip and staying at Rodeway Inn. She reportedly went outside for a smoke break and never returned. She was reported missing. Tragically, her body was found the next night in a canal behind the hotel. Strangely, police almost immediately ruled out foul play, according to health writer Erin Elizabeth of Healthnut News who has delved deep into the strange string of deaths that has rocked the alternative health community in the last year or so. We have touched on some of those stories on dead doctors but apparently the number has reached above 70 in less than a two-year period. Elizabeth notes another strange twist - Beck was a supporter of Age of Autism, whose editor Dan Olmstead also died in an alleged suicide
