"The family of
Jelani Day are calling for a third autopsy after the first two
post-mortem examinations provided contradictory results. On Tuesday (Oct. 12), his siblings took to their mother’s Facebook page to explain their request.
Per the statement, they questioned the
inconsistent autopsy results and noted that they’ve failed to receive “an accurate explanation” about the “things” missing in
Day’s body. They also said they have not ruled out the possibilities of organ harvesting but are requesting the
third autopsy with hopes to find answers. The clarity on what occurred or the condition of the 25-year-old’s body, they explained, would allow them to move forward with the burial.
“We are unsure if the whole body was there so this is why we didn’t do
a burial,” they explained in the statement. “This is why we are in the process of getting a 3rd autopsy done due to numerous amounts of conflicting information from
the 1st and 2nd autopsy.”"
