SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

I had heard that as well except for the "pretty much proven" part. I tis considered one of the more crack pot theories, at least in my reading.

The best theory I've seen is the one talked about in the linked article. At least thy have some sort of evidence, though it's nothing conclusive. The shot-as-a-spy thing is woven of pure moonbeams.

Back up.  Why does this matter anymore?  This is a question that doens't need answering.  She disappeared, and is far too old to still be alive, so the whole point is moot now; she's dead and gone, so let it go.

I think it matters because human beings are inherently interested in legends, icons and mysteries.  This avatar of "The Flying Woman" (to put her in UA or Campbellian terms) embodied all three
