29岁的塔西亚·福尔蒂恩遗体于8月3日在密西西比州杰克逊市一处废弃住宅的树上被发现1。其母亲克里斯蒂·斯皮维最后一次看到女儿活着是7月26日1，一个多月后仍在等待官方的明确答复。

杰克逊市议员肯尼思·斯托克斯表示已数周前向联邦检察官和FBI发信寻求协助，但至今未收到回复1。国会议员茉莉花·克罗克特已致函美国司法部，请求对密西西比州近期死亡事件进行调查1。

A 29-year-old Black woman, Tashayla Fortune, was discovered hanging from a tree at an abandoned residence in Jackson, Mississippi on August 3, with her mother still awaiting official answers more than a month later 1. Police Chief LaShall Blackney publicly confirmed for the first time this week that authorities are investigating the death as a potential homicide, though an official cause of death has not been established 1.
The case has sparked significant concern within the community about racial violence. Over 50,000 people have signed a petition calling for an independent investigation into Chief Medical Examiner Stacey Turner 1. U.S. Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett sent a letter to the Department of Justice requesting a federal investigation into recent death cases in Mississippi 1. Jackson City Councilman Kenneth Stokes stated he sent letters to federal prosecutors and the FBI weeks ago but has received no response 1. Fortune's mother, Christy Spivey, last saw her daughter alive on July 26 1.
This marks the third incident in less than a year in which a person has been found hanging from a tree in Mississippi 1.
