"Hideous" - Mother Looks For Answers After Seeing Photo Of Cop Giving Thumbs Up Next To Dead Son
Story out of North St. Louis County, Missouri:
A St. Louis mother is demanding answers after News 4 showed her a photo that appears to depict the scene of her son's death.
Her attorney calls the photo: "hideous."
For months, Investigative Reporter Lauren Trager has been digging into serious questions raised by the picture, questions about an officer's conduct and the handling of evidence.
On August 8, 2016, Kim Staton's son, 28-year-old Omar Rahman, was found dead in a home in Pine Lawn. The North County Police Cooperative responded. The Medical Examiner has since ruled it an accidental drug overdose. But Staton says ever since her son's death, she's heard little from police.
Weeks after Rahman's death, a photo, appearing to depict the scene of her son’s death, was leaked out. The date; August 8, the date of Rahman's death.
Questions swirling about how this photo got out. Staton says after News 4 got involved police told her their official crime scene camera had been missing for a time and that pictures were also gone. Cont. (Video)
