OZCUBAN Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Designer L'Wren Scott, Jagger companion, dead Scott's assistant found the designer hanging from a door knob with a scarf around her neck, the official said. There were no signs of forced entry, and police did not find a suicide note, the official said. Her assistant told police Scott sent a text Monday morning asking the assistant to "come by, and when the assistant arrived at approximately 10:02 a.m., Scott was dead in the living room, prompting the assistant to call police," according to the official. The New York Medical Examiner will determine the cause of death, according to Sgt. Nieves with the New York Police Department A spokesman for Mick Jagger said that the singer was completely shocked and devastated by the news. Scott had been dating Jagger, 70, since at least 2003. The lanky former model designed clothes worn by a number of celebrities, including Madonna, Allison Williams and Christina Hendricks. She also created many of Jagger's looks for the Rolling Stones' 50th anniversary tour, which began in 2012 and is currently in Australia. In addition to her haute creations, she designed a collection for Banana Republic that was introduced late last year. "I don't really jump on anything unless I believe it will deliver the quality and standards I stay true to. It is a very fun happy collection and I think it is classic and timeless and elegant," she told Vanity Fair at the introduction last October. Celebrities attending the event included Hendricks, Ke$ha, Rashida Jones and Michael B. Jordan, as well as Jagger. CNN's Shimon Prokupecz and Elizabeth Landers contributed to this report.

cigcars Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Same thought here - a doorknob??? That would be strangulation not hanging...unless it's over missing flooring...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulP Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Hanging is a form of strangulation that involves suspension by the neck. Hangings can be classified as either complete or incomplete. When the whole body hangs off the ground and the entire weight of the victim is suspended at the neck, the hanging is said to be complete. Incomplete hangings imply that some part of the body is touching the ground and that the weight of the victim is not fully supported by the neck. Hangings may also be classified by intent (eg, homicidal, suicidal, autoerotic, accidental). medscape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
