Sheriff's investigators had decided after months of investigation that 17-year-old Kendrick Johnson died in a freak accident after he was found stuck upside down Jan. 11 in the rolled-up mat, which was propped upright behind bleachers at his Valdosta high school.Oh sure, that sounds exactly like a freak accident.
He rolled himself in the mat and then fell landing upside down behind the bleachers.
I can see why it took months for them to make the call though. Tough one, you betcha.
