"Jackson Police's Controversial Handling of Black Man's Burial Sparks Outrage and Apology"

Marrio Moore, a Black man killed by Jackson police, was buried without his family's knowledge, similar to another victim, Dexter Wade. Moore's family only found out about his death through an NBC News investigation, months after he was bludgeoned to death and left unclaimed in the morgue. On the same day, inmates buried Moore's remains in a pauper's field. The police failed to notify the family, despite finding identification in Moore's pockets. Moore's family is demanding answers and justice, highlighting the disregard for their rights and the lack of police accountability.
