"Social Media Posts Hinted at Tragic Murder-Suicide on California Freeway"

A woman in Los Angeles fatally stabbed her partner, then threw her two children from a moving SUV onto the freeway, killing her infant daughter. The woman, an astrologer and recording artist known as "Ayoka," had posted about the impending solar eclipse as "the epitome of spiritual warfare" days before the violence. Police are not considering the eclipse as a contributing factor to the slayings, and are investigating whether the subsequent high-speed crash was an apparent suicide. The woman's social media included a mix of antisemitic screeds, conspiracy theories, and warnings about the end of the world alongside astrological predictions and positive affirmations.
