Third time this has been discovered in Hinds county over the past few months
NBC News has previously documented how Dexter Wade, who lived in Jackson, was struck and killed by a police car and buried in a pauper’s grave this year without anyone telling his mother, who had reported him missing. In another case, the family of Marrio Moore, who was beaten to death in Jackson and buried at the same county cemetery, went eight months without knowing what happened.
Jonathan was buried in a nearby plot at the Hinds County penal farm on Sept. 14, 2022.
This shouldn’t even be a decision in the cops’ arena. They should’ve called an ambulance, transported them to a hospital, and a medical doctor should’ve declared death. At that point, it’s a John Doe in the morgue.
Can someone clarify standard procedures from there?
