    Jessica Johnson (37) was found hanging from a mailbox and her family insist she was murdered

    http://mydeathspace.com/article/2017...e_was_murdered

    I have been meaning to make a thread about this for awhile. It's so odd.


    Police are saying suicide, her family is saying murder.




    This is the mailbox she was hanging from




    I won't post the photo as it shows her hanging from the mailbox, but you can click here to see it

    I think so, too.

    But I bet I know what Frank Benny would say ...

    Dunno. Don't know enough detail really. I have to say hanging from a mailbox would not be my chosen way to go, especially when there are trees further back.

    However, I couldn't say murder either. It's just odd.

    But without much detail at all, I'm going to just stick on it being a bit odd.

    We've been talking about it on FB so here's my counterpoints for suicide:

    -pic of her with the string around her neck confirmed for me she leant in - common style of suicide
    -she did it at the mailbox as she knew mailman would find her there, not family
    -phone in hand as had preset the goodbye texts (we've seen that before, it's not unusual, I'd do it too - gives you time to ensure you're dead before anyone worried)
    -bruises and such are normal, especially due to the pressure of her leaning towards the pole, once blood stops pumping, it pools
    -bad crowd tells me moreso she was probably on something, less so she was murdered - i'd be more likely to lean murder if it was a drop hang

    Thoughts so far.

    Noooooo please noooooo!
    I still have nightmares remembering that badly written blog.
    Wonder if those kids she blamed have been left alone now?
    Morgan Ingram - definite suicide.
    This lady - likely suicide, but just odd.

    This is so bizarre, how could someone even think "hey, I know I'll kill myself by tieing my shoelace around my neck and the mailbox"?

    This isn't the first time I've heard of a hanging in this way

    She had a lot of drugs in her system-I don't think she was thinking clearly.

    It is odd, but we have seen plenty of suicides done in weird ways.

    Curious to know what the text to her son said. It just says the son received the text after her death, but I am sure they checked her phone and saw she created the text before her death?

    That is strange but she did have drugs in her system. One thing I would like to know is if she's wearing sneakers & if they're missing the laces. That would seal it on me thinking it was suicide.

    From the MDS article:
    On June 1, Johnson spoke with her mother via Facetime and told her she was on her way home, but it would be the last time anyone heard from her.
    I wonder if her mother called police or went out and looked for her after she made the comment about it being the last time anyone will hear from her?

    I don't think that is what she said to her mom, the article just added that in after the fact. Basically, the last time anyone heard from her was when she called her mom saying she was on her way home.

    I'm strong leaning suicide, but I can see why it would be questioned. I'd love to know if anyone did indeed receive goodbye texts from her. Phone in hand bothers me.

    I think it looks like her abusive partner tied her to the box and when she was tired she hung herself it wouldn't have taken long with the drugs she had in her system. I can see misadventure or abuse. The way she is tied reminds me of what people do to their dog when they visit other people, and she had scars from abuse etc. I don't look at it and see suicide.

    Explain to me what you meant about the lean in . I do think she committed suicide, and I know plenty of people do it this way, but I think that's a ballsy way to do it.
    So, often suicide involves a drop or suspension, but can be achieved by leaning in to the rope/tie/whatever - i'd liken it to how they do it in prison with a bed sheet - rather than pressure from being 'hung', it's pressure from sitting in, or against whatever's around the neck, blocking the main artery leading to becoming unconscious quite quickly. I don't see this as suspicious, i all i meant :)

    I agree. I am a domestic violence survivor and see all the red flags.

    This is really sad. Meth is just never a good choice for making rational decisions.

    I agree this sounds and looks like a passive hanging.

    Her boyfriend looks choice. oi

    Peace to her Mother and her friends and family.
