The body of Dexter Wade, a Mississippi man who died after being struck by a police SUV driven by an off-duty officer, has been exhumed. The exhumation took place earlier than the agreed-upon time, preventing the family from witnessing the process. The family, along with civil rights attorney Ben Crump, hired an independent medical examiner to perform an autopsy. The family also plans to give him a proper funeral.
Wade had been hit by a Jackson police cruiser in March and was later buried in a pauper's field in Hinds County. The family was not notified of his death by Mississippi officials, which has led to public outcry and calls for a Justice Department investigation. Congressman Bennie Thompson supports the family's call for an investigation.
City officials have stated that the incident was an accident and not malicious intent. However, the family and their attorney, Ben Crump, have expressed their disappointment at not being able to witness the exhumation. Campaign Zero, a police reform campaign, will assist the family with the exhumation and autopsy costs.
