has anyone seen a report on what he used to accomplish this? Since there was a question about hanging versus strangulation, this created a question for me.

A lot of jail hanging are done in a sitting position where its only the victims behind that is actually off the ground. One is in fact strangled when this is done and bones do get broken.

I was answering his question in a matter of fact manner. I have a little experience with this and its not pleasant but it doesn't piss me off.
Now the fact that we cage humans and don't take care of them - that does piss me of. But not today.

If you ask me, they let him commit suicide on purpose.

(37,364 posts)If this is what he did, wouldn't he have been discovered in that position. Seems to me that the reports would have been more definitive early on.
You believe what you want to believe. I don't have the energy to play today.

(26,357 posts)There are videos of people committing suicide by strangling themselves by a ligature (a rolled up bedsheet, for example) tied to a doorknob.
I'm still in the LICSOP school here (Let Him Commit Suicide On Purpose.)
