Mitt Romney’s sister-in-law left a suicide note before plunging to her death from a parking garage last year.
As previously reported, Mitt Romney’s sister-in-law, Carrie Elizabeth Romney, was found dead near a parking garage in Valencia, California in October.
Authorities responded to a call on a Friday night in mid-October on reports of a dead woman near a parking garage.
The woman, later identified as former Senator Mitt Romney’s sister-in-law, Carrie Romney, plunged from a five-story structure near the Valencia Town Center mall.
The 64-year-old died on scene.
Carrie Romney was married to former Senator Mitt Romney’s older brother, George Scott Romney, 81.
According to divorce records obtained by The New York Post, George Romney was trying to make sure that his wife Carrie got awarded nothing in a bitter divorce battle.
George Romney, a prominent lawyer with a very powerful and politically connected brother, sought to block his wife from receiving spousal support and said they had no shared property.
The two were married for 8 years, and their divorce was not final at the time Carrie plunged to her death.
According to a medical examiner, police found a suicide note in Carrie Romney’s car. She also ‘had a history of suicide ideation.’
