I wonder which way she was cuffed. Hands in the front of her or behind her back? Were they the plastic tie cuffs or regular ones...This is an odd story.
Lots of strange in this story. I haven’t quite pictured how you could strangle yourself with any kind of cuffs front or back. If they hadn’t said something about the cuffs strangling her I would have speculated that she asphyxiated herself on phlegm from her outburst and couldn’t adequately cough it out because she was cuffed. A stretch but it makes more sense to me.
