"Most of the reporting for this story was done in 2011, when Jeff Harrell was a reporter in South Bend. What he learned then is being published here for the first time, along with new reporting to update it.
While Pete Buttigieg tried to win over black voters in South Carolina last week, Stephanie Jones, a black woman in South Bend, sat at her dining room table in front of her son’s remains and tearfully wondered why nobody, including the mayor, ever agreed to investigate the death of her 16-year-old son.
She believes he was murdered. And she’s not alone.
Stephanie Jones’ son was found hanging from an electrical tower on April 14, 2011. A coroner decided on the scene that it was suicide and that death was almost instantaneous. That coroner, however, had no medical training and police apparently conducted no forensic examination of the scene or of the body. The body was cremated before Jones could request an autopsy."
