Ingham County Medical Examiner Dr. Dean Sienko reviewed the autopsy results with News 10.
“The cause of death was multiple crush injuries,” Sienko says

Funny…no comment about her being beaten.

Where was the lawsuit for her being “beaten before getting Thrown in there”?

Accept she made a STUPID mistake…actually several…#1 shoplifting, #2 running, #3 hiding in the big crushy thing (i.e. trash compactor).

Scathing, Wrybread, but true. We, as a society, need to consciously guard against becoming so jaded by stories of murder and rape that this woman’s theft and assault become no big deal. The entitlement that leads people to steal in such a manner is criminal in and of itself.

Thank you, Athena.

I also hope that her kids will be able to grow up happily and among people who do not think that someone’s being a thief is no barrier to being a friend.

I hope her family is able to heal and use this loss to motivate them to steer those children away from a life of irresponsibility.

They planned ahead in case they were caught and brought along pepperspray to blind any security guard that chased them. They were prepared to more than just lift merchandise, they were willing to hurt someone to get away with their stolen goods.

They ran out of the store and Tyree decided that she’d be extra clever and climb in the big bin behind the Goodwill, a place where she could have purchased low-price clothing for her kids. She got in, got compacted, and will never steal again.

I think instead of memorial site, her LOYAL FRIEND should think about Tyree taking what she wanted without regard to what it would cost others. She should think about Tyree pepperspraying a man who was only protecting the store’s goods.

She should review why she was a LOYAL FRIEND to a thief.

LOOK here I AM A LOYAL FRIEND OF TYREE AND SCREW YOU ALL

P.S. Renee, truth is, I really don’t give a shit if you’re a shoplifter or a prostitute or hooked on heroin or the most law-abiding citizen on the planet. I know losing someone you care about hurts, and I’m happy Tyree had someone in her life who would stick up for her even after she’s gone. Sadly, you were a loyal friend, but your friend did something really stupid, and now she’s dead. I’m sorry that you’ve lost a friend, but if you really don’t want to hear people talking about how climbing into a trash compactor after shoplifting and winding up dead isn’t some sort of justice, then instead of visiting here, maybe you could set up some sort of memorial site for her so others can share their positive memories. My best to you.

LOOK here I AM A LOYAL FRIEND OF TYREE AND SCREW YOU ALL to make fun of a situation like that is so heartless! reguardless of how she died it was her time to be with the lord, long before she was thinking about shoplifting it was written in the book of life that on that Tuesday she would be leaving us to begin EVERLASTING life with the lord and, he doesn’t like ugly and I will pray for all of you who think that this unfortunate incident is a joke. I will also keep her family in my prayers as well GOD BLESSS

So God made her go shoplifting so she’d climb in the compactor and go to join him on Tuesday? Or was she scheduled to go on Tuesday and she chose to waste her final hours as a pepper-spraying shoplifting thief?

If she had been giving soup to the homeless or taking her dog to visit the elderly in nursing homes, we’d all be sad about her long-ago scheduled trip to God. But as it is, I wonder what God had to say to her when she showed up with an empty can of pepper spray and a bag full of clothes that still had the security tags on them.

She definitely should be nominated for a Darwin Award, though, as she fits all the criteria. At first, I was under the impression that having offspring was a disqualifier, but after visiting the Darwin Awards website, I found that it’s not. I just hope, for their sakes, that her children’s father is more intelligent.

And her kids…poor things:( They’ve lost their mother and, to add insult to injury, it was over a few stolen clothes. Sad and senseless.
