Waller County Says Bland Autopsy Consistent With Suicide
[su_publirb]
Waller County, Texas officials believe Sandra Bland committed suicide in jail.
Assistant District Attorney Warren Diepraam told reporters that he was presenting physical rather than criminal findings, but said there was no evidence found in the autopsy of injuries to Bland’s hands or internal organs to suggest a violent struggle had taken place in the jail. Previously, a medical examiner called her death a suicide by hanging. Bland’s family disputes the finding.
There was no evidence the first autopsy performed on Bland was defective as was previously alleged by an attorney representing Bland’s family, Diepraam added.
According to the new autopsy findings, Bland’s injuries were consistent with having “a force against her back.”
