Mississippi is on edge after two men were found hanging within hours of each other in separate locations, raising concern and questions about what happened in both cases.
The first incident involved Demartravion “Trey” Reed, a 21-year-old Black student from Grenada, Mississippi. At around 7:05 a.m. on September 15, 2025, Reed was discovered hanging from a tree near the pickleball courts on the Delta State University campus, according to the Mississippi Free Press.
