Images from gory new photo shoot of Kathy Griffin show the comedienne holding up Donald Trump’s bloodied head, presumably after she “beheaded” it for the shocking series. TMZ obtained several of the images shot by notoriously gory photographer Tyler Shields, reporting that “During the photo shoot, Kathy joked that she and Tyler would need to move to Mexico once the pics got released, for fear they’d be thrown in prison.” Griffin posted her own video from the photo shoot later Tuesday afternoon, citing Trump's comments about former Fox News host Megyn Kelly as inspiration. She added the message, "OBVIOUSLY, I do not condone ANY violence by my fans or others to anyone, ever! I'm merely mocking the Mocker in Chief."
