    People overblowing shit like wild.

    He bought the rope, and pd will only say so much to the public. They’ll tell the family.

    From what has been revealed, there’s two really obvious likelihoods. Suicide, and auto erotic asphyxiation. With the rope just being wrapped around his neck and him not up in the air, I’m leaning towards the latter. Bet he was thinking the rope would unwind if he blacked out, but it didn’t.

      Also possible that someone could have murdered him with his own rope, and left him in a way that looked like a suicide. Definitely something that needs time to investigate further.

        Ok. It’s possible. But what’s more likely? Suicide outpaces murder by 2.5 times, and suicide for truckers is even higher. Plus, how he was describes as being found sounds like auto erotic asphyxiation. Feet on ground, rope not tied.

          Yes, it is less likely, but still possible so a full investigation is needed. The point is that it looks like multiple things.

      He bought the rope

      They need to release the video of him making the purchase. They claim to have it but refuse to release it. There is no reason not to. So until that happens, there’s no reason to believe the cops.

      Edit: 🥾😋’s get blocked.

        Suicide rate is 2.5 times more likely than murder. There’s currently no reason to not believe them.

        I say this because if there wasn’t footage of him buying it, not mentioning it would be the obvious way to go if you were trying to cover up possible foul play. Saying there is footage though; footage that never gets produced screams the opposite.

        So if the footage didn’t exist, they never would have even hinted that it does.

          I don’t think that said there is footage of him buying rope, they said there is evidence of him buying rope. That could be something like a credit card charge, eyewitness reports, etc.
