A burning body was discovered hanging from a tree near a merry-go-round in Los Angeles’ sprawling Griffith Park on Tuesday afternoon, officials said.
A park visitor was walking northeast of Griffith Observatory, not far from the Los Angeles Zoo, at around 12:30 p.m. when they noticed a tree on fire with a human body at the center of it, according to police.
The passerby alerted park rangers to the gruesome discovery, and they summoned the police.
By the time police officers and firefighters arrived at the scene, the person hanging from a tree was already dead, reported NBC Los Angeles.
As of Wednesday morning, the victim has not been identified, but Margaret Stewart, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles Fire Department, told Los Angeles Daily News the body belonged to a woman.
"The body belonged to a woman". Interesting choice of speech, I would have said "the body was that of a woman".

I don't know what I am more curious about, the crime itself, or the fact it is being reported on at all.
Or perhaps people, like anons, might start putting it together, finding coincidences… things like that.
4 Men Found Hanging From Trees in 2 Weeks Can’t All Be Suicide
by Araceli CruzJune 16, 2020
Despite the lack of media coverage, racial injustice continues to worsen in this country. In the past couple of days, reports of mysterious lynchings throughout the nation indicate the murder of black and brown men is becoming a sinister trend. The FBI is investigating two lynchings that occurred within days of each other in two California towns. However, more lynchings are now being reported elsewhere, and there’s no way these are suicides as the police seem to inform.
On May 31, Malcolm Harsch was found hanging from a tree in Victorville, California. He was just 38-years-old.
“There were no indications at the scene that suggested foul play,” the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department told ABC News this weekend. “The cause and manner of death are pending.”
A couple of days later, on June 10, another black man, Robert Fuller, a 24-year-old, was also found hanging from a tree just 50 miles away in Palmdale, California.

Since the heartbreaking murder of George Floyd in Minnesota as a result of police brutality, six individual black people including one woman, four men, and a teenage boy have been found hanging from trees across the US.
While authorities rule these deaths as suicides, the prevailing fear is that these six deaths could be a result of lynching as Black Lives Matter protests continue across the country.

Black Lives Matter Activist Convicted of “Felony Lynching”: “It’s More Than Ironic, It’s Disgusting”
StoryJune 02, 2016
In Pasadena, California, Black Lives Matter organizer Jasmine Richards is facing four years in state prison after she was convicted of a rarely used statute in California law originally known as “felony lynching.”
Under California’s penal code, “felony lynching” was defined as attempting to take a person out of police custody.
Jasmine was arrested and charged with felony lynching last September, after police accused her of trying to de-arrest someone during a peace march at La Pintoresca Park in Pasadena on August 29, 2015.
The arrest and jailing of a young black female activist on charges of felony lynching sparked a firestorm of controversy. Historically, the crime of lynching refers to when a white lynch mob takes a black person out of the custody of the police for the purpose of extrajudicially hanging them.

I don't know much about the whole Saddam Hussein era, I was young and haven't really looked into it, except remember a few things and the controversy surrounding it. In my inquiries into the 'hangings' that have been so popular lately, how could I not but come across one of the most infamous hangings in our most recent times.
Execution of Saddam Hussein
The execution of former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein took place on 30 December 2006. Saddam Hussein was sentenced to death by hanging, after being convicted of crimes against humanity by the Iraqi Special Tribunal for the Dujail massacre—the killing of 148 Iraqi Shi'ites in the town of Dujail—in 1982, in retaliation for an assassination attempt against him.[1]
The Iraqi government released an official video of his execution, showing him being led to the gallows, and ending after the hangman's noose was placed over his head. International public controversy arose when a mobile phone recording of the hanging showed him surrounded by a contingent of his countrymen who jeered him in Arabic and praised the Shia cleric Muqtada al-Sadr, and his subsequent fall through the trap door of the gallows.
Saddam Hussein's body was returned to his birthplace of Al-Awja, near Tikrit, on 31 December and was buried near the graves of other family members.
Saddam requested to be executed by firing squad rather than hanging, claiming it as the lawful military capital punishment and citing his military position of commander-in-chief of the Iraqi military. This request was denied by the court.[
a letter written by Saddam appeared on the Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party website. In the letter, he urged the Iraqi people to unite, and not to hate the people of countries that invaded Iraq, like the United States, but instead the decision-makers. He said he was ready to die as a martyr

Somehow this is important to the research on recent hangings, and something else that I haven't brought up the link yet is the Kamala Harris's bill on outlawing lynchings. I have never read her Bill, have you? What sort of lynchings was she talking about.
Cory Booker Points To Jussie Smollet’s Attack For Why Congress Must Pass Anti-Lynching Law
More than 4,700 people were lynched between the years 1882 and 1968.

Justice for Victims of Lynching Act
The Justice for Victims of Lynching Act of 2018 was a proposed bill to classify lynching (defined as bodily injury on the basis of perceived race, color, religion or nationality) a federal hate crime in the United States. The largely symbolic bill aimed to recognize and apologize for historical governmental failures to prevent lynching in the US.[1]
The act was introduced in the US Senate in June 2018 by the body's three Black members: Kamala Harris, Cory Booker, and Tim Scott.[2] The legislation passed the Senate unanimously on December 19, 2018.[3][4] The bill died because it was not passed by the House before the 115th Congress ended on January 3, 2019.[5]

Kamala Harris insists lynching is not a relic of the past as Dems make the act ‘doubly illegal’
March 30, 2022 | Tom Tillison |
With war raging in Eastern Europe and Americans beset with soaring gas prices, inflation and talk of food shortages, President Biden and his Democrat cohorts celebrated the signing of a bill that makes lynching a federal hate crime.
“Lynching is not a relic of the past. Racial acts of terror still occur in our nation,” she said. “And when they do, we must all have the courage to name them and hold the perpetrators to account.” Resident Biden said.

"who are you to tell me if I can post?"
The best part of that whole conversation.
This is a free speech board, right? I am assuming images go with that that. I you don't like it, filter it, as long as it is the guidelines of this board and not illegal, who the are you to object?
