The former NFL quarterback will pay for an independent autopsy for Demartravion \u201cTrey\u201d Reed, a 21-year-old Delta State University student found dead on campus, civil rights attorney Ben Crump confirmed Friday.<\/p>\n<p>Reed\u2019s body was discovered the morning of September 15 hanging from a tree near DSU\u2019s pickleball courts, according to university officials. Classes were canceled for the day as law enforcement began its investigation. Police have said there is no evidence of foul play, but Reed\u2019s family has pushed back, citing conflicting details about his death.<\/p>\n<p>The Mississippi State Medical Examiner\u2019s Office performed the initial autopsy on September 17, ruling the death a suicide by hanging. Toxicology results are pending, which could take weeks. Still, Reed\u2019s family requested a second examination, one that Kaepernick will cover through his Know Your Rights Camp Autopsy Initiative, a program created to give families access to independent forensic reviews.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><d class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\"><br \/>\n<d class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"&#039;Trey&#039; Reed committed suicide by hanging, police say\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tW0ocw6nzDI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/d><br \/>\n<\/d><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cTrey\u2019s death evoked the collective memory of a community that has suffered a historic wound over many, many years and many, many deaths,\u201d Crump said in a statement. \u201cPeace will come only by getting to the truth. We thank Colin Kaepernick for supporting this grieving family and the cause of justice and truth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.co.bolivar.ms.us\/county-coroner\">The Bolivar County Coroner\u2019s Office <\/a>has also emphasized that its probe remains active, with early findings showing no signs Reed was assaulted before his death. Multiple agencies, including the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation, have joined the inquiry. Investigation materials have reportedly been forwarded to the FBI and the U.S. Attorney\u2019s Office for review.<\/p>\n<p>Authorities have declined to release Reed\u2019s official autopsy report, further fueling the family\u2019s unease. Crump said their pursuit of answers is about more than one case \u2014 it touches the legacy of mistrust between Black communities and institutions that historically failed them.<\/p>\n<p>For now, Reed\u2019s family waits for a second autopsy that they hope will clarify what happened to their son. Kaepernick\u2019s support places the tragedy under a wider spotlight, as a grieving family and watchful community look for truth amid uncertainty.<\/p>\n<p><h3 class=\"jp-relatedposts-headline\"><em>Related<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<!-- CONTENT END 1 --><\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/allhiphop.com\/news\/colin-kaepernick-has-paid-for-trey-reed-autopsy-after-hanging-death\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Colin Kaepernick will fund an independent autopsy for Trey Reed as his family challenges official findings in the Delta State student\u2019s death.
