Murdaugh classmate Stephen Smith died from head injury caused by hit and run: Experts

A second autopsy performed on Stephen Smith, the openly gay teenager found dead in the middle of a South Carolina road in 2015, largely confirmed the findings of the first autopsy that determined the teen died as the result of a hit and run, an expert told Law&Crime.

Dr. D’Michelle DuPre oversaw the exhumation and second autopsy of Smith earlier this year. Smith’s mother, Sandy Smith, had raised money on GoFundMe to pay for the second autopsy as she searched for answers about what happened to her son. Dr. DuPre said experts who examined Smith’s remains and the crime scene have concluded that something hanging off a vehicle hit Smith in the forehead, causing his death in July 2015.
