Attorney Asks, "Where Are the Autopsy Results?"
In August 2009 a Houston man, John T. Barnes, Sr., was fatally shot by an officer in the Houston Police Department. The results of the autopsy, completed on November 3, 2009, weren’t released until earlier this month – after the Barnes family attorney, David W. Hodges, filed suit in U.S. District Court. As Hodges candidly explained, “The city had suppressed the autopsy until now. In this case, I think it was the filing of the lawsuit which finally was the impetus behind them releasing the autopsy.”
