The episode opens with the tragic case of Demartravion “Trey” Reed, a 21-year-old Delta State freshman found hanging from a tree on campus. His family, represented by attorney Vanessa Jones and civil rights lawyer Ben Crump, is demanding answers after being misled about where and how he was found. They’ve called for an independent investigation and autopsy amid conflicting information and what they say are discrepancies in law enforcement’s handling of the case.
