Is it true that his father is an FBI agent?Originally posted by oozie7:
Taking FSU out of it, this is seriously one of the shadiest cases I've ever seen. There's no doubt that kid was murdered. I mean LMAO@ a kid falling head first into a mat and dying of asphyxiation. Please.
Are you talking about this story?Originally posted by Buddy Green:
If you're talking about the case from Lowndes County(Valdosta), its a bunch of nonsense. The kid wasn't murdered and three different law enforcement agencies and the medical examiner didn't engage in a cover-up. This has been going on for over a year now and the family is dead set on getting money from someone - anyone - regardless of the fact that such a conspiracy involving so many different people is preposterous. There was even a "reward" at one time offered by a local preacher, who finally withdrew it after a year and not one single tip.
I agree with you.Originally posted by oozie7:
So it's your belief that a kid who was known to have been in a fight recently and had enemies, fell into a mat and died that way? What about the blunt force trauma on the body? Or the shoes? Or any number of things that don't add up. There's too much there to chalk it all up to coincidence.

All of this. If the theory is that he was trying to receive a shoe, then clearly somebody had to have seen it to report it to police. So why wouldn't they help him once he fell into this mat supposedly? Or unroll the damn thing like you said? It makes no sense whatsoever. And certain people's actions after the fact makes it even more suspicious.Originally posted by SnowshoeGator:
Damn. That's weird. Who provided the police with the information that he was trying to retrieve a shoe from out of the mat? How did they learn that? And why wouldn't a person just unroll the flippin mat if it was that far up in there? Or just stand it up on end and let the shoe fall out? Or get a broom or stick and poke it out. That story makes no sense to me. Would asphyxiation distort a victim's facial features like that? Maybe it does...I don't know. Whooole lot of questions. I wouldn't suspect a conspiracy by the investigators and coroner. Just sloppy and incompetent maybe. Or stupid.
Sigh...What you are doing is repeating the false narrative started by the parents. None of what you post is true. The parents have already been caught in multiple lies. The father even went on some tv program and tried to demonstrate that it was impossible to crawl into a mat which was lying down when he knows it was found upright. This all came up in the wake of the Trayvon Martin mess so they hired the same attorney since they wanted to argue race. I have followed this since day one and its a huge "hoax". The kid suffocated, there was no other evidence. The two kids who's father works for the FBI agent were not in the gym when it occurred. Their whereabouts are an established fact to everyone except KJ's family.There was no recent fight with them, there was a verbal spat months earlier. They were not his "enemies", that's a ridiculous characterization by the family. Again, Lowndes County Sheriff's Office and Georgia Bureau of Investigation investigated this for three months before coming to their conclusion(numerous children gave statements about how they kept shoes and clothes on top of the mats and how the stuff would slide in from time to time and have to be retrieved ).Originally posted by oozie7:

And yea Paco that guys dad is an FBI agent.
Other students gave this information.Originally posted by SnowshoeGator:

It's actually not that uncommon. Funeral homes are scum of the earth.Originally posted by bradleygator:

Wait, what?
Without a doubt, CNN wouldn't have run with the story if race wasn't involved. Black teenager 'murdered' and southern backwoods cops trying to cover it up, it's not CNN's first rodeo.Originally posted by oozie7:
Why is race being brought up? You think this is about race?
The picture you're referring to was a post autopsy image. They cut the skin on the back of the head and literally peel it off in order to examine the tissue/muscle underneath. That's why his face looks like that.Originally posted by SnowshoeGator:

Its mostly exaggerations and smoke and mirrors. I don't have time to explain two years worth of nonsense by the parents.Originally posted by PacoGator19:
Is any of this true or is it all made up?
Brian and the kid found dead both dated the same girl, they fought twice about the girl.
Brians father works for FBI.
There is a picture on that link of Brian with a change of clothes, a bag in his hands and blood on his jacket before he changed clothes. That evidence was never looked at for DNA.

The fact that CNN isn't leading with this every day tells me there is nothing to all the conspiracy questions. I'm sure they've twisted it every which way to see if they could make it into a story.Originally posted by JaxDawg07:
