There are new questions about the death of Kendrick Johnson after the release of video from three dozen cameras inside and outside the gym where his body was found. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation ruled that the 17-year-old athlete died from accidental suffocation. Johnson's parents didn't buy that and had their son's body exhumed. A second autopsy ruled his death was a homicide. It also found that Kendrick's body cavity was stuffed with newspapers, and his internal organs were missing. Every turn in this case seems to only raise new questions. Victor Blackwell has the latest.
Anderson discussed all of this with Johnson family attorney Benjamin Crump and CNN Legal Analyst Mark Geragos
