The Sonoma County Coroner's Office is trying to determine through fingerprints the identity of a woman found dead near a bike path in Petaluma on Sunday morning.

Coroner's Sgt. Will Wallman said the woman appears to have hanged herself from a small tree. She was found in a sitting position at 9:42 a.m. in bushes in a field area next to the bike path in the 1900 block of Matzen Ranch Circle.

I'm shocked that the Chronicle hasn't blamed Arnold yet.

She was found in a sitting position after hanging herself?

Am I missing something?

You gotta be lazy to sit through your own hanging.

How do you find someone who hanged themselves in a SITTING POSITION?

...found dead near a bike path

I guess my "Haunted Bike Path of Horror" Haloween business plan is going to need some reworking to avoid being in poor taste...

All jokes aside, this is very tragic for all involved.

Prisoners do this a lot. I can't tell you how they develop the will to suppress the normal body reaction to fight it, but it can be done. I do recall one guy who secured the rope around his neck and drank until he just passed out, thus strangling himself.

Example of 'Hanged': This woman.

Example of 'Hung': Rocco Siffredi, John Holmes, and Bay Area Freeper men....

And let's not rule out auto-erotic asphyxiation. This is, after all, California.

Coats are hung in the closet.


Murderers are hanged by the neck until they are dead, dead, dead.

Another of my pet peeves. I don't know when was the last time that I heard it used correctly either. People who I would think would know better get it wrong all the time too.
