9. Kendrick Johnson: Freak Accident or Murder

Kendrick Johnson was a popular, high school athlete that the girls swooned over and the guys were envious of. In 2013, his body was discovered in the high school’s gym. He was suspiciously rolled up in a wrestling gym mat, he was upside down and the mat was propped up vertically. Automatically, it was ruled a freak accident. All of the authorities wanted the family and the media to believe that Kendrick had thrown his shoes inside of the mat and he fell in trying to retrieve them. When you closely look at all of the evidence, it doesn’t seem, at all, like an accident.This episode is sponsored by TruBrain and True Crime Indie Drop-In.TruBrain.com/discount/paigehttps://indiedropin.com/upload-directory/Sources for this episode:https://www.revolt.tv/platform/amp/2020/7/3/21312854/court-dismisses-kendrick-johnson-casehttps://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Kendrick_Johnson#Initial_investigationhttps://www.justice.gov/usao-mdga/pr/justice-department-closes-investigation-death-kendrick-johnsonhttps://allthatsinteresting.com/kendrick-johnsonhttps://time.com/4375569/kendrick-johnson-gym-mat-death-no-charges/?amp=truehttps://www.imediaethics.org/sons-werent-near-dead-teen-kendrick-johnson-parents-sue-ebony-mag/amp/CNN on YouTubeBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/reverie-true-crime--4442888/support.Keep In Touch:Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/reveriecrimepodInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/reverietruecrimeTumblr: https://reverietruecrimepodcast.tumblr.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/reverietruecrimeContact: [email protected] Intro & Outro by Jahred Gomes: https://www.instagram.com/jahredgomes_official
