Germany. A 45-year-old woman committed suicide by hanging herself in her bathroom. The string was attached to the top frame of the shower stall. The string consists of several parallel and spiral turns of a green plastic clothesline. The feet were not in contact with the ground. Her face was pale and the protrusion of the tongue was observed. Hypostatic discoloration of the ear and neck region and dark red, streaky intracutaneous hemorrhages on the skin ridges between the individual turns of the loop.
