US comedian Kathy Griffin apologises for 'beheaded Trump' photo

Kathy Griffin wants Donald Trump's head ... but she wants it bloody and detached from his body.

The comedian posed for the gory shot during a photo session with famed photog Tyler Shields, who's known for edgy, shocking pics. We got the pic before the release.
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.
Trump's critics have skewered him for inciting violence with his speech. Did Kathy do the same?

The gruesome image brought a storm of online criticism, including from Mr Trump's son, Donald Trump Jr.
"Disgusting but not surprising," he tweeted. "This is the left today. They consider this acceptable."

The 56-year-old Emmy award-winning actress and comedian has been a staunch critic of President Trump.
In her video apology, she said: "I'm just now seeing the reaction of these images. I'm a comic, I crossed the line. I moved the line and then I crossed it. I went way too far.
"The image is too disturbing. I understand how it affects people. It wasn't funny, I get it. I beg for your forgiveness."
