    City officials in Palmdale, Calif., said on Saturday that they support calls by activists and residents who have demanded an independent investigation into the death of a 24-year-old black man who was found hanging from a tree in a public square this week.

    The death of the man, Robert L. Fuller, which officials initially deemed a suicide, has deeply shaken the city in northern Los Angeles County and has reverberated far beyond amid nationwide protests against racism that were set off by*the death of George Floyd.

    At a rally for Mr. Fuller on Saturday, his sister, Diamond Alexander, said that the initial determination by officials that her brother hanged himself did not make sense.

    “Everything that they’ve been telling us has not been right,” she said,*according to video of the rally*in Palmdale. “We’ve been hearing one thing. Then we hear another. And we just want to know the truth.”

    Clear suicide or at worst a gang related killing..

    I'm sure there will be more protesting and more riots from it regardless even before the full investigation is concluded.

    White people don't do lynchings and hangings like this in a major city in that location these days period!!.. NOT A CHANCE it was race hate related..

    Heard the guy was mentally unstable. They found another black guy in his 30's hanging from a tree a few weeks ago about 50 miles from where this newest one happened at.

    Of course they think the KKK is in California hanging black people.

    The Palmdale Peckerwoods reside in Palmdale. And The Lancaster Metal Minds reside in neighboring Lancaster.

    I think this kid hung himself though.
