AJ’s Body Will Be Exhumed for a Second Autopsy

The body of the ex-fiancé of RHOA star Kandi Burruss AJ Jewell is being exhumed for a second autopsy at the request of his father who believes his son’s cause of death still is unclear.

The first autopsy concluded that AJ died of blunt force trauma to the head and a later report says that sickle-cell disease was another cause of death.

However AJ’s father, Rev. A.B. Jewell, said his son did not have sickle-cell disease. He says he wants the public to know his son did not have sickle-cell disease, and hopes that this next autopsy will prove that AJ was murdered. AJ died after an altercation at an Atlanta strip club in October.

    *sigh* I want to say let it go…I mean was the fact that he had sickle cell just pulled out of the air? But, I can also understand his father wanting to know the full truth…tragic situation all around…

    The MANNER of death was listed as homicide, which means he was murdered. What else does his father want?

    Good 4 Pops! standing up on behalf of his late son, they thought they would just bury anotha brotha with a half ass excuse on how he died, probably just glad it was one of us

    FIRST BOSSIP, THERE WAS ONLY ONE AUTOSPY, IT SAID SICKLE CELL. THE INITIAL REPORTS OF BLUNT FORCE TRAUMA WAS WRITTEN ON THE POLICE REPORT BY LAZY POLICE OFFICERS THAT JUST ASSUMED HE GOT BEAT TO DEATH.

    ALSO, THE CORONER LISTED THE DEATH AS A HOMOCIDE, BUT EVERYONE KNOWS THAT THE CORONER HAS NO SAY WHATSOEVER ON WHAT THE CHARGES WILL BE.

    AND FINALLY, KANDI BURRESS SAID THAT EVEN SHE WAS AWARE THAT A.J. HAD SICKLE CELL TRAIT SO THIS FATHER SEEMS TO BE HAVING A HARD TIME ACCEPTING HIS SON’S FATE, BUT HE REALLY DOES NEED TO FIND ANOTHER WAY TO MOVE ON IN HIS HEALING.

    Good – ‘cuz those results sounded like the coroner saying: “I don’t understand what I’m doing, so let me give the most confusing findings that no one else will understand.”

    Wow. Just wow!!

    I would hope that he’d use the money instead for his children.

    I can’t say what I’d do in his case, though. I never had to bury one of my children.

    I’m glad his dad is doing this. AJ’s family should have gotten a second autopsy from the very beginning, especially in this type of situation. Hopefully too much time hasn’t passed so the other coroner can get decent autopsy results.

    This will give the family closure, and also answer some questions in this strange death…

    @ JJ, read the post!!! The dad is saying he believes the cause of death was MURDER, not sickle-cell as the report indicates.. Reading is fundamental playa..

    Wouldn’t one of his kids’ medical records show he had the trait?

    Free legal advice.

    sickle trait is not the same as sickle disease.

  14. Whtdahell? 11/25/09, 08:45:PM

    I hope he gets the answer he’s seeking so he can live in peace and his son can rest in peace. Not to be cold; but it’s not going to bring AJ back. Maybe he’s looking for an arrest, someone to blame in order to accept the pain.

    BLACK ON BLACK VIOLENCE, SUCH A DAMN SHAME HIS FAMILY HAD TO BE PUT THROUGH THIS BECAUSE OF SOME IGNORANCE ASS FOOL. HE WAS A HANDSOME GUY AND I’M SURE MANY PEOPLE WERE JEALOUS OF HIM AND THAT SHOW PUT HIM EVEN MORE IN THE SPOTLIGHT. HE NEVER SHOULD HAVE BEEN ON THAT SHOW. ITS CURSED.
