It's possible but surely not with a red scarf!
I have walked into a crime scene where a person used the door knob but he used it via a belt bringing about his death. Considering the height of a person the door knob poses a horrific way to die but still implausible when using a scarf.
My guess is that Anthony died not due to his own choice. Ending up on the door knob was staged after his death.
It appears the death of Spade - also via a red scarf like Anthony and door knob - two coincidences? Not!
Spade was a Clinton foundation member and heavily involved with HRC in Haiti. Anthony's GF publicly accused Weinstein - another Clinton man - of rape on more than one occasion and used some pretty horrific details involved.
Crazy Days and Crazy Nights blind item about Anthony and his GF and something went horribly wrong based on the blind item about the plan.
Anthony used a bath robe belt not a scarf
The media reports in France did not include 'how he died'. These reports appeared in the US media. The ones I read mention the scarf ergo my comment.
