I smell mayonnaiseWhich "cacs" are involved here? Sheriff who reported viewing all the videos is Black, and the town is 65% Black and 22% White so chances are at least some of the WalMart people, hotel people, and security camera people are Black too.
Folk have been posting these threads for years now, and the whole "We don't believe that young Black men commit suicide" trope is getting old. Suicide Awareness Day was literally just this Wednesday.
I have my doubts that it was suicide by hanging as it is far behind suicide by gun according to statistics but it's possible.

Who made you an Emeritus Professor, Rakim?It's been increasing a lot recently, especially for youths. Among young people aged 15-24, suicides by hanging were now almost equal to suicides by gun in 2010, probably passed it by now considering how strong the trend lines were.
4.6 suicides/100,000 people by gun each year, 4.2 suicides/100,000 people by hanging each year.

27% isn’t some insignificant amount that makes the notion of this breh hanging himself seem implausible, so I’m not sure why you’re using that to cas
Your link is all ages. My link points out that older people tend to choose gun overwhelmingly, younger people much more likely to choose hanging.
Either way, 27% of 40,000 suicides would be 10,000 suicides by suffocation/hanging each year. So hearing a report of a suicide by hanging and wanting to doubt it because "but there's only 10,000 suffocation/hanging suicides every year" doesn't make sense.
