San Jose State University President Mary Papazian announced this week the county coroner and district attorney will reexamine the suspicious death of student Gregory Johnson Jr., according to an email obtained by this news organization.
“SJSU recognizes that for many members of our community, the circumstances surrounding Gregory’s death are emblematic of longstanding systemic racism in our nation,” Papazian wrote in a Feb. 18 email to students. “The Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office and Coroner’s Office recently agreed to undertake a new review of the coroner’s report, once the pandemic allows them to do so. We will cooperate with any requests for information.”
