Black Man Hanging Death
Orlando Police declare Nevan Baker's hanging a suicide. The family and their attorney Ben Crump are asking for a more comprehensive investigation following suspicions of foul play.
There's a shocking story coming out of New Jersey surrounding another black man found hanging whose death was ruled a "suicide." Amani Kildea, 20, was found hanging in Morristown, New Jersey on June 28. According to a Change.Org petition, Amani was not suicidal before his body was found hanging from a tree an hour away from his home. Instead, the petition says that Amani was looking forward to attending college at James Madison University in the fall with aspirations to become an FBI or CIA agent. His dreams were cut short however when authorities found his lifeless body. Still, local leadership does not suspect foul play.
