L'Wren Scott dead: Fashion designer and Mick Jagger girlfriend found dead in apparent suicide

Celebrated fashion designer and girlfriend to Mick Jagger was found hanged to death in an apparent suicide in her Manhattan apartment Monday, police sources said.

The body of L’Wren Scott, 47, was found hanging from a scarf on a doorknob by her assistant at 200 11th Ave. around 10 a.m., sources said.

Scott texted her assistant at 8:30 a.m. and asked that she come over, police sources said. When she arrived, she found the body and called 911.

Police did not suspect foul play, a source said, but the Medical Examiner’s Office will determine a cause of death. No suicide note was found.

Geez. How terrible.

What a shame.

Hanging by a scarf from a doorknob?

Seriously?

Once one works into the suffixation process, normal body defenses take place.

This would be, essentially, strangling yourself with a rope sitting in a chair.

I'm not sure it can be done, without some sort of drugs involved.

It's apparently how that asshole who kidnapped those women in Cleveland did it.

My first thought (then and now) was that as soon as someone lost consciousness, the body would slump, and then the tension would be released on the rope/scarf/sheets/whatever.

I'd like to know more technical details myself. I would think that at a certain point blind instinct would force a person to release the pressure. You might want to die but Lizard Brain Larry has no such intentions.

I wonder if these people have somehow tied themselves up to prevent that last ditch survival effort?
