家属寻求对三角洲州立大学学生死亡事件进行独立调查

摘要

三角洲州立大学校园内发现吊死的黑人学生德马特拉维恩“特雷”·里德的家属已聘请律师本·克朗普,要求在官方调查进行的同时开展独立调查。

德马特拉维恩“特雷”·里德是一名21岁的黑人学生,他的遗体于周一早晨在三角洲州立大学校园的腌黄瓜球场附近被发现吊死。里德的家属已聘请民权律师本·克朗普对其死亡事件进行独立调查。三角洲州警察局长迈克尔·皮勒表示,初步调查结果显示为自杀,未发现他杀迹象。然而,鉴于密西西比州的种族暴力历史,此事件引发了广泛关注。克朗普强调需要彻底调查,他表示:“特雷是一个充满希望和温暖的年轻人,深受所有认识他的人的爱戴和尊重。他的家人和校园社区应得到一次全面、独立的调查,以揭示事件真相。”密西西比州国会议员本尼·汤普森呼吁联邦调查局介入调查。联邦调查局已知晓此事件,并表示如果出现潜在联邦违法行为的证据,将准备展开调查。博利瓦县验尸官办公室报告称,里德的遗体未发现身体攻击的迹象。三角洲州立大学校长丹·恩尼斯向校园社区发表讲话,表达哀悼,并确认学校将配合所有调查。为让社区有时间哀悼,学校取消了课程和百年庆典活动。
