An astrology influencer who was worried about the recent solar eclipse stabbed her partner to death before pushing her children out of a moving car on a freeway and then killing herself, police said on Wednesday.
Danielle Johnson’s body was found inside a car that had slammed into a tree in the Los Angeles area on Monday.
Police believe she stabbed her partner to death at home in Woodland Hills in the early hours of Monday before hurtling down the major 405 freeway before dawn.
Johnson, 34, shoved her children – one aged nine, one aged eight months – out of the moving vehicle onto the busy highway. Only the nine-year-old child survived.
Johnson, who peddled weekly “aura cleanses” on her website and described herself as a “divine healer”, told followers on Monday that the impending total solar eclipse in North America was “the epitome of spiritual warfare”.
“Get your protection on and your heart in the right place,” she wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter, last week under her online pseudonym Danielle Ayoka.
