Suspicious circumstances and police custody

2019-06-09 20:24:18.007325+02 by Dan Lyke 1 comments

A veteran died in police custody. His body was returned to his family with some organs missing. Dude is on his way from Delaware to New York to visit his mom, stops in Pennsylvania to clear up an outstanding warrant, ends up dead.

On April 9, 2018, two days later, the family was told that Palmer had died in police custody at the York County Prison. Fourteen months later, the Palmers say they still don't know what really happened. But they are suspicious because when Palmer's body was returned to them, his throat, heart and brain were missing.

That sounds like something the coroner did, and coroners will often not return some organs. It's a perennial problem.
