Was Kendrick Johnsons Body Mutilated After Autopsy?
“Kendrick Johnson‘s body mutilated?”
Summary
Investigations revealed Kendrick Johnson’s organs were missing and newspaper was used to fill his body cavity after exhumation, but autopsies determined his death resulted from blunt‑force trauma or positional asphyxia, and no criminal act or bodily mutilation was proven. The claim that his body was mutilated is unsubstantiated.
