This case has literally been swept under the rug. No proper police investigation. No autopsy. The whole thing is sketchy. I’m also surprised that no Solve the Case members have looked into this. However I can see why. This case has many moving parts and has the potential to go into very deep dark rabbit holes. I see that there is a petition to have an autopsy done once 10 k signatures is reached. My question is, will authorities actually perform an autopsy due to a petition?
I have seen this and have started to try and look into more details. I do hope they are able to get the autopsy done. There are so many questions that need answered.
Hello, thank you for talking about this case and keeping Jeremy’s case warm. In regard to the autopsy, what are you thinking could be found from an internal examination? Is there concern that he wasn’t killed by hanging? If not, what other means are thought to have caused Jeremy’s death? I understand the concern that someone else could have hung Jeremy but how would an autopsy help with that?
The external inspection should be conducted to support the findings of the death certificate. Who signed the death certificate?
Just a gut feeling but I feel as if there’s been a cover up. Either the authorities on the scene are completely inept or they just wanted to close the case ASAP without a thorough investigation.
The young man’s family needs closure.
I’m not a seasoned investigator but one doesn’t need to be to see that something doesn’t quite add up.
An autopsy would shed some light but is it even possible to determine causes of death on skeletal remains? With today’s tech I’m sure it is.
No thorough formal investigation was conducted. This is a big case and it’s been over 7 years since the incident. Suspects could have moved and eyewitnesses’ memories could have degraded over time.
This is a case that requires hands on boots on the ground investigation and research. I don’t think it can be solved by someone on a laptop. Perhaps I could be wrong. Like I said I’m not a seasoned investigator or even an internet sleuth. It’s just that this case caught my attention. I feel for the mother and his family.
Maybe there could be a slight chance that whoever hung him from the tree hit him over the head or something to be able to hang him from that high & with a belt? So maybe by getting the autopsy we could see something like a skull fracture or anything small that could help prove that it wasnt self inflicted…especially with them taking no photos at all of the crime scene area or body…something just sounds off…ive definitely seen way more thorough investigations of suicides in just this last month where i live. I feel like if he really wanted to commit suicide there wouldve been a lot more easy ways to do it than climb 18-20ft…but just a thought that crossed my mind i hope the family can find some peace in whatever direction they go in
First of all, from one mother to another who completely understands and feels your pain… at the same time searching for answers to questions, I am also learning through the process regarding my daughter’s death case…
As you have, through the same process, while we are grieving not only the loss of our children, and everyday moments, but also bearing the additional process of making the calls, finding additional officials, and compiling evidence for any kind of justice, in want only seems to be an unjust world, as opposed to law enforcement, detectives, and medical examiners who are supposedly trained but fail to do their diligence… only adds to our compounding grief… I am sorry you too, are dealing with similar incompetence…
With that said, the only other advice it seems I can offer you is even with the peaks and valleys of your days, and as I have been told is to keep compiling the evidence, store it properly, and keep fighting!!
If you have not checked and you have access to his phone, laptop, or computer, and you know his information, maybe download any Google account, images, Maps, and activities (Not sure how far these items go back), it may shed some lite into a location and timeline, whereabouts or individual(s) houses or who may have been involved by location compared to known location(s). Same with images, messages, and time stamps.
