The attorney who helped push for a criminal prosecution in Trayvon Martin's shooting said Thursday that he's joining the fight to reopen an investigation into the death of a Georgia teenager whose body was found inside a rolled-up wrestling mat at school.

... Johnson's family asked the Justice Department to get involved, arguing that authorities failed to investigate Johnson's death thoroughly because he's black. But the Justice Department found insufficient evidence to support an investigation. U.S. Attorney Michael Moore in Macon has been monitoring the case...

The Miami media, eager to give Crump attention, has discovered this story....now the story is that the child's "internal organs" were replaced with newspaper....a bizarre turn, to be sure, but it sure seems strange to leap to the "racism" card.

Sure, lawyers are always drumming up more business for themselves.

The Martin family are ‘victims’ turned ‘professional’.

I think I saw this lawyer on a news report during the trial.

Honestly, I was embarrassed for whoever hired this imbecile.

Does not seem like racism to me if the organs were taken, but ritualistic... it is not like the muslims are not putting bombs inside bodies

AMAZING HOW CNN WILL INVESTIGATE & FILE A LAWSUIT AGAINST A COUNTY SHERIFF BUT IGNORE THE MULTITUDE OF SCANDALS SURROUNDING THE CLOWN OCCUPYING THE OVAL OFFICE!!

This pot of vile is stale, and stirring it some more won’t make it smell any better. Trayvon was a black, teenage thug who attacked the wrong person. That will always be the case. May the same thing happen to all the other black thugs who are out there attacking people. Trayvon is their symbol.

The body went through an autopsy - organs are removed and funeral homes will use whatever is available to replace them. I’m guessing the family wanted an open casket and the funeral home did what they could to make him look normal.

His organs were taken out by the medical examiner for investigation...I think the media is reporting the fact to sensationalize Crump’s case.

Journalism today seems to be nothing but a press release and distribution mechanism for liberal fascists.

Wait until they pull in some suspects and they are all black.

Will they then be complaining that the only reason they are investigating his death is because the suspects are black???

Same here. Maybe I am old fashioned but a good attorney should be able to pronounce the name of their client.
Martin was Mah-en.

The video of him entering the gym shows only blacks with him. They are the most likely suspects. But idiots will do anything for another press conference

About twenty years back, a Japanese student died when some classmates rolled him up in a gym mat and left him - suffocated. They didn’t mean to kill him and it raised a predictable discussion of issues, bullying and rivalry and academic pressure.
