Sandra Bland, the black woman found hanging dead in a Texas jail days after a traffic stop, smoked or possibly swallowed a large amount of marijuana while in custody, her family's attorney reported the district attorney as saying.
Waller County District Attorney Elton Mathis made the disclosure in a text message to attorney Cannon Lambert, who has called the state's autopsy on the Chicago-area woman defective, Lambert said.
"Looking at the autopsy results and toxicology, it appears she swallowed a large quantity of marijuana or smoked it in the jail," Mathis said in a text message to Lambert that the attorney provided to Reuters.

After the incident escalated into an altercation between her and the trooper, Bland was taken into custody and charged with assaulting an officer. She was found hanging in her jail cell on July 13 with a plastic trash bag around her neck.
Her death was originally ruled a suicide, although officials have said they are handling it as a murder probe.
According to Lambert, Mathis said the state needs to conduct a second autopsy on Bland, whose body was returned to the Chicago area on Wednesday in preparation for a funeral on Saturday.
"The family's confidence is shaken by the continued discrepancies that are surfacing," Lambert said in an email to Reuters.

Hoo Boy!
possibly ate it in the car during the arrest? Cheech and Chong did this, I believe.
No they just pretended to do that in a motion picture.
My guess is she probably had a stash in the car, and when she was being pulled over, she swallowed it. A victomology adherent with a huge, racial chip on her shoulder, in addition to being an unstable individual with suicidal tendencies. Of course, none of that will satisfy the Canadians & their Communist backers such as Hillary.
Right. The cops stuffed a lethal amount of marijuana in her and then she went and hung herself.
So who put a plastic bag in her cell? Test it for marijuana.. Who knows?
So who was the last friend or family member to visit her in jail?
I think it is far more likely that someone visiting her slipped her some hash or hash oil than it is that a guard let her chain smoke several joints.
THIS is the operative phrase in all of this Reuters story. Could, possibly, may have. Second autopsy not yet performed, body now in Chicago.....
Just guess where in the hell's bells this is going? This is ABOUT money and to some extent, extending the "black lives matter" meme.
I bet they never even checked her keester.
Great, here it comes, “She was high on the pot, that’s why she hanged herself and acted so unruly with the police officer.” How on earth did she get weed while in prison. This really isn’t adding up. I might have missed it in the article but did these results come from the private autopsy or the state autopsy (if there was one)?
Cheech and Chong did this, I believe.
And Tom Cruise is a Navy pilot.
So how does the family even remotely think this is a murder?
To me, there aren’t any conclusive unbiased facts. The first thing they do is to get a “second” somewhere in Chicago....yep, that’s the ticket.
When there is a remote chance of a big payoff. Simple
Hell, I’ve done it :).
Doesn’t matter what actual facts come to light exonerating the police, the “facts” will be forced for an agenda.
Or she was a drug mule and was transporting a large quantity internally. It would explain whey she was so agitated about being stopped and given a traffic warning.
