Summary

An Update On The 2013 Death Of Valdosta Georgia High School Senior Kendrick Johnson With Guest Host Justin Rimmel From The Mysterious Circumstances Podcast

**KD IS NO LONGER WITH ORBITAL JIGSAW OR BLUBRRY**

This is an update on the death of Kendrick Johnson of Valdosta, Georgia. On January 11, 2013, Kendrick was found inside a rolled up wrestling map that was standing up vertically inside the gym at his high school. His death was ruled accidental, but when his family had a second autopsy conducted, it was determined he died from blunt force trauma. After the US Attorney in Georgia had a formal review, they determined in 2016 there would be no criminal charges filed. Kendrick's family has been fighting for justice ever since and have even called for a third autopsy, but they've also been accused of mishandling their own son's case by allegedly making up evidence to try and support the claim that Kendrick's death was a homicide. This is an update on where the case stands now.

All right, everybody. This is mysterious circumstances doing a case update on the Kendrick Johnson case that's me and Roseanne from California Dreaming podcast covered not too long ago and obviously joining me is the fabulous

Roseanne so you know. Thank you along with the fabulous Justin.

And we got hit up hard today because there is a Facebook post that came around yesterday and it's stating everything about a witness that has been discredited and well not so much I don't want to say discredited but basically

0:40.1

all these accusations are coming around that this witness has been incarcerated to keep the

0:47.1

cover up going of the Kendrick Johnson quote unquote murder like me and Roseanne were talking about at the end of the

0:53.8

episode I did not state my opinion I left it open because you know I mean don't give me

0:59.4

wrong it could go either way but when you stack evidence in each hand or lack of evidence for that matter,

1:06.0

I did lean more towards accidental because medically it is possible. It's definitely possible and weird deaths have happened.

1:16.1

It's not cool and it's really odd sometimes,

1:19.5

but personally I did lean a little bit more towards accidental.

1:24.0

It was really funny because at the live show in Indianapolis,

1:27.0

when we did the Q&A, I actually had somebody ask me

1:30.0

what my opinion was, and I went into like a 10 minute rant about it. But so basically what we're going to do because there is a little bit of new information. I'm going to let Roseanne go ahead and get us started.

Of course.

And their laughs and it's so sad. And I know that they're desperately looking for answers and it feels like at this point they're kind of grasping at straws and it's completely heartbreaking to see them continuing to spin in circles now almost five and a half

2:07.3

years later trying to figure out what happened and to find an answer that they're satisfied with.

2:13.4

I just don't really think that it is.

2:15.6

And in order to do that, they've filed papers to have their son's body exhumed for a second time. And on June 20th, it was reported that they had those papers, that they had a time set to

2:29.5

exhume him on Friday, June 22nd of this year and they were going to have a third autopsy conducted.
