An attorney for the family of Black 23-year-old Lauren Smith-Fields has said her Bumble date’s story “doesn’t add up” and that the older white man has been “acting evasive” ever since she was found dead from a mystery overdose the morning after they met up.
Darnell Crosland, who is representing Ms Smith-Fields’s family, told The Independent that there are inconsistencies in the statements made by Matthew LaFountain in a police incident report and the evidence inside the apartment where the 23-year-old died.
