The hanging death of an African-American man who had been missing since early this month and was found Thursday by local authorities in Mississippi has drawn the scrutiny of the FBI and the Department of Justice Civil Rights Division.
The sheriff's office in Claiborne County, Mississippi had organized a search for the man, who had been missing since March 2 and reported missing March 8. Authorities found the body hanging from a tree in the woods behind the residence where he had been living.

It is unclear if it is a suicide, or if the man was killed by someone.

"Earlier in the day, the Claiborne County Sheriffs Department and the Mississippi Wildlife Fisheries and Parks conducted a ground search for a man who had been missing since early March. Officers located a man hanging in the woods near Roddy Road a half mile from his last known residence," according to the FBI statement.

Evidence collected so far doesn't suggest foul play in the death of Otis Byrd, found hanging from a tree in Mississippi, law enforcement officials told CNN. For that reason, suicide is the early theory as the likely manner of death, the officials said.

I'm going to guess it was suicide that close to his house. Probably was scouting that tree out for a while.
ETA:
Why couldn't it just say "Man found..."?
Why you hafta put race in the description?

Come on down Jessie and Al.....
I remember in late 90's when I lived in Brandon, MS there was a kid that was found hung in a tree in his yard (if I remember right). Jessie and Al came down and started all kinds of crap, only to find out later that it was a suicide. Jessie and Al just left not apologizing for anything they said.

And please be suicide.
Can't imagine the media shitstorm if this is ruled a homicide.

Well this is going to be bad. Thanks Mississippi and OU, our country really needed this shite
It really doesn't matter what evidence of sucide there may be. The news has everything it needs for a race war
