Sandra Bland, a university graduate who had just moved back to South Carolina to work in her old University.

She forgot to signal when changing lanes whilst driving her car & was pulled over. The police officer went OTT and pulled her out of the car & (it seems from heavily edited footage from the police dashcam) had to restrain her.

She was then arrested and kept in jail for a minor traffic violation, and found dead in her cell allegedly having hanged herself.

This picture is her mugshot but may have been doctored after her death

It's being treated "like" a murder investigation. Not that her death is being treated as murder, and if the post mitten results show it is self inflicted then it's not murder.

Good at least that should put some rumours to rest then, but I do hope they look at the whole sequence of events from the time she was stopped, not just the cause of death itself.
