“Based on the preliminary examination, we can confirm that the deceased did not suffer any lacerations, contusions, compound fractures, broken bones, or injuries consistent with an assault,” the coroner’s office said in a statement released Tuesday. “At this time, there is no evidence to suggest the individual was physically attacked before his death.”
I guess the county coroner could be covering up a lynching, but he’s also a black man and it seems unlikely given the family will just have an independent autopsy done. Surely the family will make a statement if they saw the body and there were obvious signs of an attack.
For sure, which is why I said it would be unlikely and not impossible. Maybe it’s more likely than I’m thinking, but idk I just grew up in a town not unlike Cleveland and not that far from it. It might not even be a majority white population, which is true in a lot of small southern “cities” (they aren’t large cities, populations of ~15k)
And I mean Candace Owens exists so anything is possible
I mean, being people, and Americans at that, black people run the gamut, including those complicit in the white supremacist criminal punishment system. Which a coroner knowingly enters, usually having other options in medical fields. According to some random site, Ohio coroners are elected positions, so they are even members of the political class!
tbh that could be a wash on who joins because it may then attact “criminology” types and nepo hires. I don’t know anything about this one particular guy though.

I mean, black cops exist. Being black doesn’t strictly translate into solidarity, unfortunately.

Yeah, I agree. This town is in Mississippi, though. Also doesn’t even require medical qualifications, they take a class after being elected.

Why would you even consider the coroner is telling the truth here.
coroners
cops
Let’s hope.
