When a 21-year-old Black student is found dead on a Mississippi university campus, the official explanation is often swift: suicide. But for the family of Trey Reed, that story is beginning to crumble, exposing deep-seated distrust in a state still haunted by its history. The death of the Delta State University student, initially dismissed by local authorities, has taken a dramatic turn.
A second, independent autopsy, funded by former NFL quarterback and activist Colin Kaepernick, has revealed blunt force trauma to Reed's head. This casts serious doubt on claims he died by hanging alone and fuels a fight for the truth.
