Family still needs independent autopsy for Trey Reed in hanging death
De'Martravion "Trey" Reed's family is still waiting for promised answers about his death — nearly nine months after Mississippi authorities ruled it a suicide.
Reed, 21, was found hanging from a tree on the Delta State University campus in Cleveland, Mississippi, early Sept. 15, 2025. Days later, the Mississippi State Medical Examiner announced his cause of death was hanging and the manner of death was suicide, with no foul play suspected.
Civil rights attorney Ben Crump's legal team arranged for the Colin Kaepernick "Know Your Rights Camp Autopsy Initiative" to fund an independent autopsy. Dr. Matthias I. Okoye of Nebraska completed it before Reed's funeral on Sept. 27, 2025.
