Pennsylvania s Rust Belt Region Could Be Pivotal In November s Presidential Election WINDBER, PA - AUGUST 13: The Windber High School softball team rinses a police car as part of their car wash fundraiser on August 13, 2016 in Windber, Pennsylvania. The small Western Pennsylvania town of just over 4,000 residents was founded as a company town for nearby coal mines, most of which have closed. 11.1% of the population now exists below the poverty line, with a median household income of $23,261. Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trump has been holding rallies in the state frequently, as he targets Pennsylvania s 20 delegates, the 5th largest total nationwide.
Arti’s brother,
Anand Adya, said there were red flags in the months leading up to their deaths, including several times where the family canceled plans last minute.
‘It was obvious,’ Adya told the paper.
‘She wanted to meet, but he didn’t let us.’
But he said that his sister gave them
‘no inkling that things weren’t perfect’ in her marriage.
‘I would ask Arti if everything is OK, and she would never say anything,’ Adya said.
Adya described his sister as the
‘most devoted wife, and an even more devoted mother, sister and daughter.’
‘They definitely did not deserve this,’ the brother said.
