READ MORE:A grieving family is demanding answers after a 21-year-old truck driver was found dead on a rural road with a rope around his neck - as police insist he 'wasn't lynched.'
In response, Vance County Sheriff Curtis R. Brame said he became aware of accusations his office was 'not being transparent, not providing information to the family - and that is not true.' Javion Magee, 21, from Chicago, was found on September 11 in North Carolina with a rope around his neck and his back leaning up against a tree, sparking speculation that he was 'lynched' that officials have rejected
He declined to brand Magee's passing as a suicide at this stage, and his exact cause of death was not yet determined as his body was sent to the medical examiner for an autopsy. Although officials declined to state that Magee's death was a 'suicide' publicly, she claimed that police told her family Javion had been to Walmart to buy a rope then 'hung himself.' @scottieprimpin Please help my family in getting Justice for my little cousin #JavionMagee #Henderson #HendersonNC #Chicago #NAACP @ABC News @ABC11 @WGN9Chicago #JUSTICEFORJAVION #SAYHISNAME
His cousin continued in her appeal: 'We really need your help... the police officers and coroner's office are giving us a hard time.'
