Photo of CLOSED: A macabre scene...what is it?

I found this on the top of my tomato plant today. It's kinda gruesome, but I was wondering what the eggs could be so I can take the proper action.

I was thinking it could be lady bug eggs, in which case I'll stick it back in the garden. I have been rescuing ladybugs from the pool and putting them in the garden. the eggs are about 3 mm in length and very white.

I have noticed ?white flies? in the garden and have been using neem oil recently. I know I'm probably killing those ladybugs I rescued, but better than losing everything.

I would appreciate any suggestions as to what this macabre scene means. Thanks!
