The Lowndes County Sheriff’s Office has reopened Kendrick Johnson’s case nearly eight years after his death was ruled an accident.

The Lowndes County Sheriff’s Office has reopened the Kendrick Johnson case, reports WALB News 10.
Kendrick Johnson case reopened
The Georgia teen’s body was found on January 11, 2013, in the old Lowndes High School gymnasium.
In May 2013, Kendrick Johnson’s death was ruled an accident.
Since then, the Johnson family has filed several lawsuits and Johnson’s body has been exhumed multiple times as the family fought to have his death investigated as a homicide.
New information
Sheriff Ashley Paulk told WALB News 10, his office received 17 boxes of documents, computer towers and hard drives of information that was collected during previous investigations by other agencies into Johnson’s death.
Now, they are working to compare those notes to new information Paulk said the sheriff’s office has obtained and are looking for any discrepancies.
Paulk said it will take time to go through all the documents and there is no frame on completion.
The sheriff said that per department policy, no public announcements or updates will be released in the Kendrick Johnson case until it is closed again.
