Quentin Tarantino's Editor, Sally Menke, Found Dead

Sally Menke, who edited director, Quentin Tarantino's films, as well as the 1990 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, was found dead on a Los Angeles walking trail early this morning. Menke had been hiking with a friend when the two became separated. The friend called police when she could not locate Menke; police used dogs and a helicopter to find her body.

Yesterday was the hottest day ever on record for Los Angeles, with recorded temperatures reaching 113ยบ, but Menke's body will be examined by a coroner to see if any prevailing condition(s) contributed to the 57-year-old's death.

Menke was nominated for an Oscar for both Pulp Fiction and Inglourious Basterds.
