Absolutely needed after one of the coroners was commenting while they were still taking the kid’s body away
In an interview with the Mississippi Free Press, Bolivar County Deputy Coroner Murray Roark said he assisted fellow Deputy Coroner Dwayne Proctor in examining Reed’s body. Roark stated that he saw no signs of broken arms or legs.
“I saw no broken limbs,” he said, declining to elaborate further at the time. “I don’t think I should probably discuss this any further than that. My opinion is that it was self-done, and I have reasons for that.”
Love to see other rich athletes or entertainers who talk about being progressive do the same. Colin has a well earned axe to grind already, maybe Kimmel could start writing some checks for others who got fired for the same reason but arent already rich and famous? Glad somebody with money and a mouth puts the two together in a good way, sucks it had to be a guy who was already raked over the coals
Would you change your mind if I told you that he’s currently shilling for a company trying to bring AI into schools?
Land of contrasts.

Fucking wut? I’m going back to school to finish out my engineering degree and every single class has a giant multi-paragraph disclaimer about use of AI as scholastic dishonesty that will not be treated lightly. I mean, good, but wtf does he mean? Like elementary and high schools? What happens when these kiddos get to college after they’re completely dependent on some LLM to even think for them and the professor is like: “nah dawg”? They just flunk the fuck out because they can’t generate a single coherent thought independently? What the fuck is the end-game of this whole “AI” crap?
Even viewing it from a capitalist lens, I don’t understand what the goal is. So “AI” becomes so smart and self-recursive that human labor is arbitrary. OK. Then what? You live in capitalism. People have to buy your widgets. If nobody has any money to buy your widgets because “AI” put everyone out of work, then all you have is a warehouse full of “AI”-generated widgets that nobody can buy. So now what? I’m not being facetious. Seriously, now what? How does this work out in your favor? How does this work out in anyone’s favor?
Is AI selling AI-generated goods to other AI? WTF is the end-goal of this exercise?
It’s a major push. The AI companies are trying to do what Apple and Microsoft did and make kids dependant on their tech.
I am currently doing my CS degree and I have professors who basically dont really teach the material anymore because “you should ask chatGPT for questions”
That’s next quarter’s problem
Unfortunately LLM policies are often determined on a class-by-class basis. I have met lots of educators and education administrators across k-12 and university who are pro-LLM usage. They typically don’t understand how it works, and/or believe it currently can do better than it can.
I have had undergrad students who use chatgpt without question, thinking it’s totally fine (despite my syllabus policy), and k-12 students who won’t touch it with a 10-ft pole before I cautioned them against it. Lots of individual variation and credulity.
Sadly my institution just wants you to cite your use of ai. Upsetting.
Unfortunately this is still better in terms of disclosure than in industry where executives will just feed company secrets to Altman even if there’s an internal LLM built just to prevent that, and the BS generator still creates BS sometimes. I’m sure there are plenty of students who just vibe code without having a BS filter (faculty and staff encouraging LLM usage isn’t inherently problematic IMHO, but when they do this to offload the work of actually teaching, it really doesn’t help…) and it’s only going to make their lives harder.
he can be good and bad at the same time
Classic Amerika
Everything is incoherent
Yes it would and did.
What the fuck why does someone have to pay for that what the fuck are we doing here?
Mississippi goddamn
Reading the article, the state conducted an autopsy, but Kaepernick is funding a second private autopsy because he doesn’t trust the state and wants to help
Fascist gets sacrificed for the fascist narrative and it was openly done by a fascist…
The entirety of social media and all traditional media loses their shit.
A very obvious murder takes place
The entirety of social media is celebrating this death except for us, and the official government case might as well just be “Who cares?”
Ah I see that makes sense. Whole thing sounds fishy af.
paying for a second, non-state-ordered autopsy, because the state in question is mississippi
Mississippi cops and coroner did a coverup and ruled it a suicide
am*rica
Kaep is the best. Talk about someone willing to fall on the sword for their principles.
would the autopsy even find evidence if he was lynched?
Absolutely, there would be signs of struggle and or binding, bruises at the very least or failing that toxicology showing the victim was drugged.
maybe there’s evidence of assault, maybe there’s somebody else’s dna under his fingernails. sometimes they can tell the difference between wounds inflicted while someone is alive and damage done after they died.

I don’t think it would be pertinent here, but this is usually not difficult to tell because how damage to the body manifests is extremely different with and without active blood flow (among other things, depending on the time scale).
ok that makes sense. holding out hope, i was just pessimistic that there will never be justice for this guy
yeah i don’t know how conclusive it could be or what evidence the first guy could’ve destroyed, but there’s a chance, maybe.
As far as whether it was suicide or a lynching that should be clear cut as fuck. Generally people fight for their lives and need to be subdued to the point you can hang them or would have to be drugged to the point they cant resist. Both would be super apparent in an autopsy. You cant just string someone up without there being physical evidence of struggle.
yeah, a little bit wondering if they drugged him and the KKKoroner didn’t check or there’s a plausible way to conceal that without getting found out immediately
I guess it depends on the poison and how it was administered, but generally there’s no way you’re getting any substance out of his system without it being even more obvious than the presence of the substance itself. Usually poison gets circulated pretty broadly throughout the body and that’s not something that you can just excise.
i was thinking like spiking his drink and then killing him
I guess you could just lie on the paperwork but toxicology would be really hard to conceal medically without really tampering with a corpse in an obvious way. When someone dies their circulatory and other systems tend to cease functioning so whatever is present innthe blood or digestive system at the time of death will stick around. A corpse can’t sober up, so aside from filing a false report there isn’t much else you can do to lie about that

Hexbear is home to finest scientific minds
If there is signs of struggle on the body, they can identify it.
*assuming the coroner isn’t a personal racist and/or bought and paid for by the pigs
hence this second autopsy
yes i’m aware
i’m saying the second coroner could be those thingshope kaep’s people or the family’s lawyers or whoever are able to get someone who isn’t
It’s a police investigation what?
“It’s the 20s and lynchings by state-backed KKK-adjacent groups are going strong in the US South.”
Other commenters have explained, but the police in this case aren’t even trying to hide their true colors and trying to pass it off as a suicide
