This is Kody Ingham, who was 18 years old. He was found hanging from a tree in Athens, TX on Monday morning July 15, 2013.
I spoke to Ray Nutt, Sheriff of Henderson County, where Athens is located. In our conversation, he confirmed the tip, that Kody Ingham was found hanging from a tree, Monday morning. Apparently, this incident took place on Sunday the day of the Zimmerman verdict.
According to the Sheriff, Kody committed suicide. In telling the story, he said that Kody killed himself after he left his girlfriend’s house. I asked him if the girlfriend was white. He said he did not readily know the answer and went to look it up. He came back on the phone and said she was white. He said Kody and his girlfriend went to a Rodeo where they ran into her old boyfriend. He said Kody became very upset and an argument ensued that continued when Kody went home with the nameless girlfriend (I am pursuing her name).
Kody finally told her he was leaving and she never heard from him again. The next morning she found him hanging from a tree located down her driveway. According to a family source connected to the father, Kody called his mother at 2am in the morning and asked her to pick him up. She called him back; he did not answer her call.
Since this story was not reported in the newspaper, I asked a local editor of the Athens Review, why was Kody’s death was only reported as an obituary and not as a story. He said they don’t report suicides.
Of course this is very troubling since this incident happened on the heels of the George Zimmerman verdict. Moreover, the contention that Kody killed himself is an all too familiar refrain in the suspicious death of young Black men. We ran into this when we investigated the deaths of Billye Jo Johnson from Lucedale, Mississippi and Chavis Carter in Jonesboro, Arkansas.
Both were dating white women and their deaths were suspicious. I suspected, before I asked the Sheriff, that the girlfriend is white. When it became very clear the girlfriend was white, the sheriff said he thought it was a suicide, but there needed to be more exploration of certain issues. If the relative’s observation is true, then the girlfriend was dating Kody and the white boyfriend at the same time, which appears to be the same case with Billye Jo Johnson and Chavis Charter.
I am in the process of trying to contact Kody’s mother and father, but am free to tell you that you may send condolences to the family at Hannigan Smith Funeral Home at www.Hannigansmith.com.

I am working with my team to gain more insight into this. This is very disturbing. Can we talk? eldridge.ron@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteTHIS IS WHY BLACKS SHOULD STICK WITH THEIR OWN. LEAVE THOSE LIL WHORES ALONE.
DeleteYeah that's right.....now YOU be prejudiced as well. Your intelligence is showing. What a moron!
DeleteCALL IT PREJUDICE IF YOU WANT TO IT THE TRUTH ITS IN THE BIBLE THAT WE SHOULD NOT DATE OUTSIDE OUR RACE. LEAVE THEM ALONE AND DATE YOUR OWN.
DeleteHE WAS HALF WHITE AND HALF BLACK SO WHAT RACE WAS HE SUPPOSE TO BE STICKING WITH. SINCE YOU KNOW SO MUCH... WHORE SHE WAS NOT AND NEVER HAS BEEN!
DeleteThe bible teaches that one should not be unequally yoked. This means do not marry someone of a different religion.
DeleteIn the old testament, God punished the Israelites often for their inter-religious marriages.
The bible does not teach against interracial marriage. Interracial marriage is alright to God......You're an idiot dude.
Ruth was not an Israelite... but her marriage was not punished... Moses' wife Zaporah was not Jewish, but their union was not punished... They were only punished for turning their backs on GOD and worshipping idols..
DeleteWe are HUMANS... GOD created us all... HE loves u ALL. We should learn to do the same. LOVE our neighbors as our self. Who is your neighbor? Everyone! This is sad to see such foolish comments. I pray the hearts of men can learn more compassion. Sadly, racist people think they are better than others but actually they are the ones with low self esteem, and true self worth. Grow up people, a young man died... that is sad no matter who he dated. He was loved and is truly missed.
DeleteYou need to send us his mother's information or contact Dr. Mauricelm-Lei Millere
ReplyDeleteCody Ingram is why the black race must retain and use weapons for defense! I will forward this to Dr. Millere directly!
ReplyDeleteSadly weapons aren't used just for defense.
DeleteIf he had a weapon he could have stood his ground.
ReplyDeleteSO WHO WAS HE SUPPOSE TO USE THE WEAPON ON? HIMSELF! THAT IS WHY THIS GOING ON RIGHT NOW...
DeleteNo. The people who hung him. Suicide my butt.
DeleteSO THEY are trying to say he was that upset over a lil white girl ex. please!!! not believable.
DeleteDifference is had Kody "stood his ground" with a weapon; he would have "immediately" been arrested, charged, taken to trial and convicted within months. Other folk know NOT what we feel, they do not live in the skin GOD the Great Creator clothed us in; it is Impossible4them2Understand b/c they do not experience the HATE we receive and live with Daily. They don't even HIDE or MASK their HATE4Us anymore. Yet we do NOTHING as we did nothing when Zimmerman was found N.G.
DeleteAll you guys are doing is trying to create more hate and deaths in this world and that is not what we need. We need someone to help the teens that are like him. The ones that need the help to keep from thinking taking their own lives is the only way out.
Deletewe are from athens and were very concerned when we read your allegations. after extensive research it is discovered that his closest family and friends do not think that this was a racially motivated murder, That in fact, Kody took his own life. Shame on you for trying to gain attention at the cost of this young man's tragic end. shame on you for trying to further spread hate and division in America. get your facts straight and let this boy RIP.
ReplyDeleteKody's death had nothing to do with his race it had to do with his own struggles. Instead of trying to blame everything on race and say that someone hung Kody why dont you get some help out here for young adults struggling with thoughts of suicide and quit assuming things. Kody was also 1/2 white and very loved in this community but you wouldnt know that because you didnt try to fine that out, you just assumed since his girlfriend was white and he was mixed it was a hate crime. Well you know what it wasnt a hate crime and no one hung Kody. He took his own life and not one time did he try to call his mother before he did it so again another misleading quote. I am sure there are alot of hate crimes against all races but one thing I can assure you is that this was not one of them.........not even close.
ReplyDeleteIt's appalling you would think it was suicide. Get your facts right. He got into an argument with his white girlfriend's ex. Her ex had a motive. Take it from someone who witnessed it. He had NO intentions of killing himself. He was having a good time that night at the rodeo.
DeleteGET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT... HE DIDNOT GET INTO IT WITH HER EX BOYFRIEND... YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THIS YOUNG MAN WAS DEALING WITH EMOTIONALLY.
DeleteSo you have access to his phone records????
Deleteis that so anonymous writer who posted: It's appalling you would think it was suicide. Get your facts right. He got into an argument with his white girlfriend's ex. Her ex had a motive. Take it from someone who witnessed it. He had NO intentions of killing himself. He was having a good time that night at the rodeo.?....... i refuse to involve this poor boy's mother but i have it directly from her that her son took his own life. feel free to email me with your sources. you can see my name is on display for anyone who wants the real facts, not hiding behind "anonymous". i am not denying that racism is still very much alive in Texas. i know as a teenager walking around with my bff or boyfriend (i am a white female and writing under my husbands gmail account) getting refused service. and this was in the 90's. there is still much to be done in the flight for true equality but for the sake of everything that is good, please understand that in this situation, you are wrong. please for the sake of his family show some decency and only report the facts, not assumptions and let this mans family have some peace
ReplyDeleteWhat I don't understand is why anyone would be alarmed at the suggestion of further investigation? Your towns folk have themselves admitted that there is racism in your area, there was an argument that ensued at the rodeo, a domestic dispute (the break up) and with a subsequent death. I say look in to this as best as you can and anyone standing in the way - well, at the least, should be dealt with. Have you guys heard of the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act. I suggest you take a look...
ReplyDeleteNo one was alarmed at further investigation. It is the fact that you and others are pointing fingers at a innocent young woman and man that would have never done this. I understand that Texas is known for Race issues, but in this case there is no race issue. If you have done your investigation then you should also know that this girl has whites, blacks, and Hispanic in her family. If you knew what you were talking about you would also know that she also has many black friends as well. You would also know that this was not the first black man that she had dated and her family excepted as their own. You would know that her family has taken him on many family outings and he attended all family functions with her. The ex-boyfriend that you are talking about in this case was a high school crush and they have not had a relationship in over 4 years. So before we start speculating lets get our story straight before we start pointing fingers at innocent people.
Deletethank you, thank you thank you. i promised his mom i would do everything within my power to stop this nonsense. so happy to see others are stepping up to do the same :)
DeleteYOU ARE SO VERY WELCOME I WILL DO EVERYTHING IN MY POWER TO GET THIS STOPPED... I WISH IT WOULD ALL STOP AS WELL... HER FAMILY & HIS FAMILY ARE GOING THREW WAY TO MUCH TO HAVE THIS HANGING OVER PEOPLES HEADS... HE NEEDS TO REST IN PEACE AND BE LEFT ALONE... IF HE KNEW THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN THE OUTCOME HE WOULD NOT LIKE IT IN ANYWAY... RIP KODY-LEE WE LOVE YOU
Deleteyou have to understand the reason i stand behind his mother. as a mother myself, i know no one knows my baby in the world better than me. Kody's mom knew of her son's depression and was/is a very dedicated and involved parent. As a mother i also know that if there was even a shadow of doubt in my mind, i would be the loudest and leading voice to find who had done this to my son. However, this is not how things are unfolding and the woman who knew Kody the best is not calling for further investigation for a good reason. if she was, i would be right there with her demanding justice. when first reading the allegations of a racially motivated murder, i was outraged, but before i started pointing fingers myself i started my own investigation. i have concluded, based on evidence, that i side with his mother, family and friends.
ReplyDeleteI just want to tell you thank you. There was no murder in this case. Just a young man that didn't know what else to do. We loved him so very much and this is heartbreaking to know that people are taking this to this extremes. HE WOULD NOT WANT THIS IN ANYWAY. He wants to rest in peace and that is where they should leave him. He was a wonderful young man. RIP KODY-LEE
DeleteThe fact that he called his mother to pick him up & then was found hanging from a tree at the end of the girlfriends dive way is very suspicious & worth a further investigation. If those who say they love him blocks an investigation, maybe there is something they want to remain hidden but let a forensics specialist rule it a suicide, not some ignorant hill billies!
ReplyDeletehis mother confirms TO ME that she received no phone call. no missed call, nothing. she also confirmed to Ruby Sales, civil rights activist that no phone call happened. yet these allegations are still being posted as facts. makes me wonder what the agenda is here. what will people say to his mother after the body is exhumed and someone finds that he did indeed take his own life. are u going to apologize to his mom? are you going to make it better? i understand the suspicion that surrounds kody's death and i too was very concerned initially. and if i saw further need to pursue as a racially motivated murder i would be right there with you. but i have the facts from the boys mother therefore i changed my mind. The justice that kody needs is to be left alone. this is the request of his mother.
DeleteHE DID NOT CALL HIS MOTHER! HIS LAST WORDS TO HIS GIRLFRIEND WAS THAT HE WAS GOING TO CALL HIS MOTHER TO COME PICK HIM UP, BUT NEVER DID. HE WALKED OUTSIDE AND NOONE HEARD FROM HIM AFTER THAT. SO LETS GET THOSE FACTS STRAIGHT AND OUT IN THE AIR. NO ONE IS HINDERING FURTHER INVESTIGATION BUT WHY IS THAT NEEDED BECAUSE HENDERSON COUNTY INVESTIGATORS HAVE ALREADY DONE AN INVESTIGATION AND THE MEDICAL EXAMINER FROM DALLAS WHICH IS NOT WITHIN THE COUNTY RULED IT A SUICIDE. WHY ARE PEOPLE PUSHING THAT IT WAS A LYNCHING JUST TO MAKE THIS A RACIAL ISSUE WHEN THERE WAS NO RACIAL ISSUE HERE. HE ALWAYS SAID HE WOULD BE FAMOUS HE JUST WOULD HAVE NEVER WANTED TO BE IN THE HEADLINES LIKE THIS... THIS IS CRAP AND IT IS OUTRAGIOUS THAT YOU CAN NOT LET THIS YOUN MANS FAMILY GRIEVE FOR THE DEATH OF A LOVED ONE.
DeleteAn additional investigation could prove whether it was suicide or not. It seems strange to me that no one saw or heard anything. Why is it so hard to believe this may not have been a suicide. was the young man suicidal? Had he been talking about taking his life? The Ex or the other boyfriend should be questioned of his whereabouts in the timeframe. There had to be some kind of noise, unless it happened somewhere else. We all know to well how things are done in Texas, especially when Blacks are involved.
DeleteYes, we all know how things are done in TEXAS, Ohio, Virginia and many more States. Why is it so upsetting to other folk that those of us who experience HATE on a daily bases do not automatically believe what the "Police" claimed happened. Hung himself b/c his caucasion girl "while with him" saw her ex and decided to NOSELESSLY HANG HIMSELF. I have YET to meet a brother who would think then commence to do such an irrastional act. Never heard Kody was depressed, suicidal, isolated kid. What's so wrong about some folk feel believe N speak that a "FURTHER INVESTIGATION" be ensued! Why does that bother anyone? Kody's family will grieve regardless! The TRUTH needs to be known; point blank.
DeleteWho's going to oversee the AthensPD full, unbiased investigation?
ReplyDeleteSmh only God knows
ReplyDeleteI pray that this young man may rest in peace and for his family to find/have solitude after there tragic loss. Nevertheless, it appears to be some form of foul play. If this young man was "happy" and "accepted"...why would he have taken his own life by hanging himself @his girlfriend's home??? I just find that peculiar and if he did just so happened to have called his mom for a ride, why not wait inside her home being that it was such a late hour? And, yes WE as parents do "know" our children, however; we do not know everything they are doing, saying, texting, posting on FB/IG/Tweets. IJS it appears perhaps this case does need further investigation. How is it this young man hung himself in the driveway of his girlfriend's home and NO ONE knows how. What did he hang himself with?how did he supposedly hang himself from a tree?was he on "depression" medication? As a parent, I'd want answers to some of these questions. I'm not assuming or speculating, its just an ironic situation!
ReplyDeletemany celebrities who were very much accepted and society thought were happy have taken there own lives. here is a recent list. notice how 6 out of the 10 listed committed suicide by hanging. this info was taken directly from: http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/top-lists/Top-10-celebrities-who-committed-suicide/videols/20425475.cms
DeleteBollywood actor Jiah Khan, who worked in films like Nishabd, Ghajini and Haousefull, allegedly, committed suicide by hanging herself at her residence. Jiah was brought up in England and had shifted to Mumbai with her mother Rabiya.
Popular fashion model Viveka Babajee, who shot to fame with the Kamasutra condom advertisement in the 1990s, committed suicide in her Bandra flat on the night of June 25, 2010. Her body was found hanging from the ceiling fan in the hall. Apparently different reasons are being cited for her suicide from breakdown in professional career, failed love relationship to financial losses.
The actress who became the sex symbol of Hollywood was found dead at the age of 36 in her Los Angeles home early on the morning of August 5, 1962. Like many famous celebrities, ‘overdose of pills’ was claimed as the reason for her sudden death. Monroe's "acute barbiturate poisoning" was listed as a "probable suicide," but many people believe that it was an accidental overdose or even a murder. The mystery surrounding her death continues to haunt her fans.
South sex-symbol Silk Smitha was found dead on the morning of September 23 in her home in Saligramam near Chennai, hanging by a rope from the ceiling fan in her bedroom. In a suicide note that she had written in Telugu, she claimed that continual failure in life had led to frustration and made her take this drastic step. Vidya Balan’s The Dirty Picture was loosely based on the life of Silk Smitha.
The tragic end of the 19-year old Divya Bharti, who had fallen from the window of her fifth floor apartment around midnight on 5th April, 1993 still stays as one of the most shocking deaths ever. Whether the promising actress (who had risen within a short period and was expected to reach the top in the coming years of Indian Bollywood) committed suicide or met an accidental death still remains a mystery.
Popular yesteryear actor filmmaker Guru Dutt’s death due to a lethal combination of sleeping pills in excessive liquor is still debated as suicide though his family maintains its was an accident. Guru Dutt was not on good terms with wife Geeta Dutt while Waheeda Rehman whom he was reportedly in love with had also distanced herself from him. Filmmaker Abrar Alvi who was conversing with Dutt on that night claims that he felt Guru Dutt was too dejected.
Popular singer-musician Kurt Cobain was found dead in his Seattle home on April 8, 1994. He shot himself in the head and his suicide at the young age of 27 made headlines.
British actress Lucy Gordon, who portrayed reporter Jennifer Dugan in "Spiderman 3", committed suicide just two days before her 29th birthday. Lucy left two suicide notes before hanging herself in the Paris flat she shared with her cinematographer boyfriend, Almeras. Reportedly the couple had a tiff a night before and Almeras woke up to the scene of horror in morning.
Popular model and television actress Kuljeet Randhawa who appeared in several serials like Special Squad, Hip Hip Hurray and CATS hanged herself at her Juhu apartment on February 8, 2006. She had clearly stated that she couldn’t cope with pressures of life in her suicide note. Her supposed boyfriend and costar from the serial Special Squad, Bhanu Uday was questioned by the police for his involvement.
Kuljeet Randhawa’s friend and costar from the tele-series CATS, Nafisa Joseph hanged herself in her Mumbai apartment a couple of years earlier. Nafisa who was also a VJ was to marry businessman Gautam Khanduja but it was called off after she learnt that he was already married. He had told her that he had been divorced for two years.
HIS MOTHER HAS ALL THOSE ANSWERS TO THE ?'S YOU ASKED THAT IS WHY HIS MOTHER WANTS THIS TO BE LEFT ALONE.
DeleteEverybody is speaking for the Mother. One particular poster here is actually making himself look suspect, he has an answer for every question.
Deletei am assuming you are talking about my postMy name is Lauren Roerick. I am a former legal secretary that has assisted many attorneys in pursuing justice for hate crimes; both hate crimes that involve race and disability. When i was first made aware of the speculation regarding the death of Kody Ingham i was livid bc i have dedicated my life to seeking justice for victims and the fact that this particular case occurred in my home town. However before i jumped on the band wagon of accusers assuming that this was a racially motivated murder i decided to start my own investigation. This is when i started direct communication with Kody's mother, Mrs Johnson, who provided information about the investigation and her son's mental health history. Based on this evidence, I am no longer pursuing the case as a hate crime/racially motivated murder/ lynching. My conclusion does fall with law enforcement, investigators, his mother and close family that all insist Kody did indeed take his own life. There is still much work do be done in the fight for racial equality and against discrimination against others because of their differences. I am reaching out to any and all who would like assistance in pursing other matters.
DeleteMay God bless his family and we must find this hate viruses in our nation and execute it.
ReplyDeleteTHERE IS NO HATE IN THIS MATTER....
DeleteHe just happened to have a rope with him just in case he decided to commit suicide!
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVIOOxNOdjw this might just help on all the ?'s that you may have about where he got the rope from...
Deletethere could have been a tire swing in the front yard and yes, if the boy had been contemplating taking his own life he could very well have been caring a rope in his backpack. he was at his long time on and off again gf house and probably knew where such materials were kept like in a shed or something. i dont blame u for your suggestion. its the exact same thing i said when i was pursuing as a hate crime. my name is Lauren, Justin is my husband and i am writing on his gmail account with his permission. i am writing on his gmail account bc i dont have one and i am encouraging any and everyone who wishes to seek the truth to contact me via email. i became involved with this case because i saw the allegations going aroud the internet that claim his death was a racially motivated murder. As a member of the Jewish community and the mother of a disabled child, i have participated in assisting attorneys research and pursue hate crimes. before my auto accident last year that resulted in the amputation of my right dominant arm and left leg from the knee down, i was a legal secretary. i was livid when i first became aware of the accusations but before i started making judgments and pointing fingers, i decided to run my own investigation. thats when i started talking with Kodys mom we have become close over the past few weeks and i am no longer perusing as a hate crime/ racially motivated murder/lynching.
DeleteI wish to know the details
DeletePeople do not hang themselves from trees, first of all. Especially not a black person. Any person who believes that as a possibility is in extreme denial of reality.

DeleteGood point about the rope...
ReplyDeleteThere is much to find out about this situation... strong questions about this young mans death...
ReplyDeleteIf she was white and her ex BF was white and he was black and these two men had an argument then its possible that someone was killed after the confrontation... more investigation needs to be done... something doesn't sound right.. people need to get involved and put pressure on the local police and start protesting demanding answers into this so called suicide death of a black young man involved with a white woman who's black boyfriend was later found hanging from a tree after an argument transpired between the two... young black man just don't happen to be hanging from tress for no reason...
this need to stop why do you white fill that you need to kill us,we dont do any things to you but life the way god till us to ,and you white poeples said that you believe in god who is your god a killing god i thank that the white girl white boy friend did this and some thing need to be done

Doesn't sound right, if she had been found hanging we wouldn't be havving this conversation .....go figure !!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure why so many are so quick to put this issue to bed, and that includes the family. They where not there. you said he did not call his mom, so she doesn't know what his mind set was that evening to just be okay with the lost of her son. If it was my son i would want to know every thing. i would assume nothing. In the interview with sheriff nutt he just assumed that kody found the rope. Did the girls family claim the rope? did any one check for DNA on the rope? What was found that make you all so sure it was suicide? Please tell. If you want this to go away answer the hard questions. Dont just tell us to trust you.justin Roerick you almost had me. but them i notice that your post are all the same on every social site that i have been to. verbatim! You are suspicious my friend. your want for this to go away makes you a prime suspect and you to should be questioned. if it was suicide PROVE IT! that's all you have to do.

Also, I feel that i should include that I currently live in West TX, about 7 hours from my home town of Athens, with my husband and only child who is disabled. Aug 31st of last year, i was a passenger in an auto accident that resulted in the amputation of my right dominant arm and left leg from the knee down. Before that, i was a legal secretary and still assist attorneys in research for hate crimes of race and disability. you are more than welcome to verify any of the info i have provided. If u are to look up the auto accident, its under my maiden name, Hopper, as the accident occurred right after my wedding and i had not changed it legally. I hope this info puts to rest any speculation as to my motives and involvement with the case.
Deletei can see if the little girl broke up with him.....maybe. but to say he hung his self because they ran into her ex boyfriend is just ridiculous. If this was a little white girl hanging from a tree in the front yard of her black boyfriend, there would be an investigation. I don't care what the parents had to say!
ReplyDeleteFirst off Kody was in rodeos and hung himself with the lead rope from his horse. Yes Kody had some issues and had attempted suicide before also by hanging himself. You didn't live with Kody and didn't know the struggles he had. There was no other injuries to his body except his neck injury. You say that no black man would ever hang himself then I guess it was Kodys white side that hung him because no one else did this but if it makes you feel better to keep dragging his name thru the mud then so be it. Good luck in your search and we will be here to say told you so when you are done. RIP Kody Lee
ReplyDeletethank you for still showing your support to Kody's family :)

ReplyDeleteAll the comments... but without an investigation it's a mute point. It's been almost a year.. Where are the photos from the crime scene? Why just take the easiest answer because of this young man's mental health? Why not have an investigation to put it all to rest, so that this young man can rest in eternal sleep?
ReplyDeleteArguing his mental status proves absolutely nothing. INVESTIGATE
Yes, justice demands investigation - all of these points: what his (is she caucazoid?) mother says, rumours of his mental health, encounters with school associates, all superfluous to photos, eye-wtiness reports, forensic evidence, skin samples, rope samples, dirt samples from shoe bottoms etc. It is a year now and if any of Kody's relatives walk the warrior's path, they will call Kody's name in ceremony and ask him when he plans to return to earth and in what form. ALL SECRET THINGS WILL BE MADE PLAIN.
