At one point, the police report for “Jane Doe” refers to it as being a case of “arson”.
Much of the media coverage and general discussion of her self-immolation in December focused on if she had done damage. The Atlanta Police Chief said: “We believe this building remains safe, and we do not see any threat here.” The Israeli government released a statement: “It is tragic to see the hate and incitement toward Israel expressed in such a horrific way.”
Police records indicate that they obtained a search warrant and entered an apartment they believed to be associated with “Jane Doe” — initially using a drone:
The drone was able to relay information as to the layout and the belongings inside. After it was deemed "safe" entry was made with bomb technicians. While clearing the apartment no improvised explosive devices were located.
The police report also noted:
During the search a Quran was found in the bedroom along with a [sic] Arabic dictionary and a Hebrew dictionary. The bedroom bookshelf contained books related to fiction and fantasy. A "Drug use for grown ups" book was on the bookshelf as well.
Two journals were seized from the bedroom. A thumbdrive was seized from the bedroom as well. A laptop computer was seized from the kitchen counter. A copy of the search warrant was left in the living room of the apartment. The front door [of] the apartment was secured before law enforcement left the premises.
When pressed for more information in compliance with an Open Records Request under Georgia law, Atlanta Fire Rescue Department claimed: “There is an ongoing and active investigation for the incident in question, which is why the only releasable information has been shared via the incident report. Investigative documentation is not available for release until the investigation is closed.”

People are interested in finding out who she is but it's all been a dead end. It makes me sad to think of her rotting away alone inside grady.
“It is tragic to see the hate and incitement toward Israel expressed in such a horrific way.”
Fuck the Israeli government especially for this.
"This person burned herself alive, experiencing excruciating pain and assuming she would die from it, and now has to live with full body third degree burns. Must be a hate crime."
I think even worse is how the cops assumed they were trying to damage the embassy/ sent the bomb squad to their apartment as if someone doing this is likely to have anything more dangerous than petrol and a lighter.Treating them like a suicide-bomber in both cases.
Sounds pretty typical of Amerikkka. By the way, thank you for this post introducing me to Husseini. Found another great article they did that I posted to a few other places and it's making the rounds now, hopefully introducing a few more people to Aaron Bushnell.
Every minute they spend being fucked is a minute they can't kill more Palestinian children, so I'm on board.
