Aramis Ayala is no stranger to hate.
As the first African-American elected to state attorney in Florida and a controversial prosecutor ― known for her refusal to seek the death penalty in an aggressive capital punishment state ― she’s had to field plenty of racist and ugly rhetoric from her neighbors.
But Ayala, who serves Osceola and Orange counties, doesn’t back down when she’s the victim of a crime. In March, she received two racist letters over two weeks, one of which contained a noose made of twine, her office confirmed to The Huffington Post.
Calling the package a hate crime, Ayala forwarded the letters to the Orange County Sheriff’s Office, which launched an investigation, according to the Orlando Sentinel.
An incident report obtained by the paper stated that Ayala “believes the hangman’s noose was meant as a threat to her as a public official.”
Deputies are reportedly working with the U.S. Postal Service to find a suspect. A spokesperson in Ayala’s office said the author of the letters didn’t leave a name.....

Yeah. Just far enough.
Did she put her return address on it?
Yeah, when she licked the envelope.
Because the KKK obviously is known for hanging people these days, because they will TOTALLY get away with it....yeah.
My bet is 7 days before we find out which staff person in his office agreed to mail this for him.
Return to sender.. address unknown..
This kind of stunt is so predictable that it’s meaningless anymore, and the Huff puffers surely know it.
HATE HOAX!
Yeah...it is politics.
TALLAHASSEE —
Activists outraged over Gov. Rick Scott’s removal of Orange-Osceola State Attorney Aramis Ayala from dozens of murder cases because of her refusal to seek the death penalty took their complaints directly to the governor’s office Thursday
I wonder how long it will take to discover that she mailed that noose to herself?
I think there’s a new iPhone app:
iHoaxHate
You can send yourself a noose, receive threatening emails. Even have your own cat nailed to your front door.
All anonymously.
There’s a free version but you need the paid version for things like the cat.
Wait until the DNA tests reveal she wove the noose from her own hair.
Just another hoaxer at work. Should be cause enough for immediate charge, conviction and removal from office via imprisonment.
Do they actually use the persons own cat, or do they grab a neighbors cat instead?
Total hoax.
Nobody even thinks about this nonsense anymore, but the left.
Nobody.
Convenience as the info is a month ago and since the Govenor removed
all her death penalty cases since she refused persecute death sentence cases as in opposition of the Florida Law.
All nooses, mailed to a black public official, college student, staff or faculty, or celebrity must be presumed to be hoaxes in the absence of clear and compelling evidence to the contrary.
The sender was smart enough not to sign the letter. Therefore it is NOT a klansman.
By the way, why doesn’t NOW, and Nancy Pelosi and Sheila Jackson-Lee, demand the term “klansPERSON” be used?
This is a State Attorney. I'm a Floridian, and I seriously doubt that this black woman has participated in a hoax here.
I can see how certain people who feel powerless would try to pull such a stunt for attention, but I honestly can't see this state employee doing that.
This just doesn't have that sort of feel to it. I could be wrong, but in this particular case, I think you're being a little too cynical...
