Rabbit Hole Alert
TL;DR: Young woman who worked with Carribean kids after hurricane Thomas ravaged Haiti, returns to US. Volunteers with US child charities. Mysteriously hit by train. Suspected to have been placed on tracks. Same judge Cinderela Guevara who declared Justice Scalia death "natural causes" rules this one a "suicide". Family disagrees. Body creamated immediately à la Scalia, against family wishes
I hope someone with much better investigative / writing skills than me can dig down this rabbit hole because, there is way too much for me to handle properly and give it the vetting it deserves.
This is her brave mother telling the story from her perspective:

2010 - Melaney Parker volunteers with the Peace Corps, sent to St. Lucia. Worked with local kids. During her time there Hurricane Thomas devastates the neighboring island of Haiti. She helps in organizing relief efforts (though I am uncertain if she physically visited Haiti)

Her family believes she was murdered, but an immediate determination of "suicide" was made by Judge Cinderela Guevara before any investigation was done. Did not order a rape kit or an autopsy. No one has explained why.

Judge Cinderela Guevara is the same judge who pronounced Justice Scalia dead, over the phone, based only on information communicated by those at the ranch. Declared natural causes "no autopsy required".

This where the Rabbit Hole become almost unmanagable (for me at least). The Mother's article on DailyKos contains all relevant hyperlinks

The cast of characters we dealt with are notable. Rod Ponton represented Glyn Robert Chambers in 1992, the co-defendant and confidential informant of former Presidio County Sheriff Rick Thompson, who was arrested for transporting a ton of cocaine in a sheriff horse trailer. He is now serving a life sentence. Mr. Ponton won election as District Attorney narrowly in a Democratic primary. He is also the Texas DA that refuses to reopen a case in Fort Stockton, Texas, where a woman named Sonia J. Cacy was convicted with outdated forensic science of murdering her uncle in 1993 by arson. Mr. Ponton has asked Attorney General Gregg Abbott (yes, that Gregg Abbott) to assist in blocking a reopening of the case. He has his own criminal past. There are stories that he starves his horses, stories that he has a past of sexual assaults that have never been prosecuted, and other lurid rumors. When his name is mentioned, people use words like snake and scum. I have heard many people say, "If Rod Ponton is speaking, he's lying."
Ponton's Investigator, Kevin Ficke, was convicted of tampering with evidence while employed with the Uvalde Sheriff Department in 1992, and served four years probation. He sued Hays County for wrongful termination after quitting because the Hays County DA questioned his credibility, and lost(pdf). Interestingly, his wife was charged in Guadalupe County for forging prescriptions before he accepted the position in west Texas. It appears this led to the closure and eviction of a non-profit children's shelter they were running.
Note: In Februrary 2016 Heavy.com issued a piece connecting the Justice Scalia and Melaney Parker deaths and coverups vis-à-vis the town of Marfa, TX and Judge Cinderela Guevara. But this was WELL BEFORE #Pizzagate broke last fall.

This is what I have so far. I'm counting on you glorious goat bastards to help connect the dots and turn over some more dirt. Will update with new info as I can. I have not archived anything as my free time restricts, so that would be appreciated if you can
Peace all!
