“We have no information or evidence at this point to indicate that there is a prior pre-existing spinal injury

Lawyer speak.

The article assumes facts not in evidence - and which cannot be in evidence - until the autopsy.

We don't know either way.

You are correct ...lawyer speak. I don’t know if there was a ores using injury or not. But the family does. The correct response maybe should have been. Mr grey did not have any prior injuries or surgeries prior to his arrest. Period end of statement. But such statements do not allow for waffling later on

[generally]

Agree.

*WE* have no information. That doesn’t mean there isn’t any. It just means the lawyer has no documentation. .... assuming he’s not lying.

I agree that those of us reading assorted news reports don’t know what’s really the truth yet. Police brutality? Self-inflicted? Pre-existing? Combination platter?
