MYSTERIOUS DEATH OF: Joseph “Jo-Jo” King III

On Feb. 23, 2020, 6-year-old Joseph “Jo-Jo” King III was found unresponsive at home with his stepfather. The initial explanation was simple: he had accidentally suffocated inside a toy chest. But the toy chest was not airtight. Parts of the scene were wet. And the autopsy was later amended to include “concern for possible homicidal drowning.” Still, the manner of death remains undetermined.

Jo-Jo’s stepfather is in prison for abusing him less than a year before his death, but no one has been charged in connection with how he died. So what really happened inside that house?
