Her arms stiffened in the position they were in when she died. She was hung up by the rope joining her hands. Then the perp pulled down her underwear and long johns. She was jabbed with the Paint brush handle. This caused the scream heard by the neighbors. Then the perp bashed her in the head with the flashlight. After she stopped moving, she was taken down and redressed. Could be she was still hanging when JR found her. He could have wiped and redressed her in the too big Bloomies underwear. No woman would make that mistake. Only a boy or man.
