It's time to completely disband this band. Murderous thugs. It's like, they knew where to punch him and hopefully not have it evident.

Thanks for this article, JeannaT! About the autopsy:
(CNN) -- A final autopsy report released Wednesday shows that Florida A&M University drum major Robert Champion Jr. suffered muscle damage commonly seen in such events as car accidents, prolonged seizures, child abuse and torture, an expert said.
The alleged fatal beating suffered last month by Champion, 26, during a marching band hazing must have been brutal, two experts said.
"His muscles were beaten so badly that they were destroyed like you would see in a heart attack," Dr. Howard Oliver, a forensic pathologist who is a former deputy medical examiner in the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office, told CNN after reviewing the autopsy findings.
Band bus a complex crime scene, expert says
The damaged muscles leaked out a protein called myoglobin, "and it's too much for the kidneys to process. It causes the kidneys to fail," which results in death, Oliver said.
The muscle damage is called rhabdomyolysis, Oliver said.
They know who did this and I hope every one of them is charged with murder...agree about the band...popular or not, if they can't control the people in it who are beating members like this, and the girl that was injured, it needs to go.
