Germany. A decomposed body was found hanging from a tree in a forest. The body belonged to a 54-year-old woman who committed suicide by hanging 19 months earlier. The string was an antenna cable formed in an open loop and was attached to a branch. The body was mummified and partially clothed, white mold was observed on the thigh. The neck had elongated over time due to the separation of the cervical vertebrae.
