The mother of a South Carolina teenager found dead on a rural road in 2015 says she plans to have his body exhumed for an independent autopsy as his case finds renewed interest in the wake of Alex Murdaugh’s arrest and murder conviction.

Attorneys for Satterfield’s adult sons eventually recovered millions of dollars owed to her estate.

“On the death certificate, the manner of death was ruled ‘natural,’ which is inconsistent with injuries sustained in a trip and fall accident,” the coroner wrote to state investigators. Sandy Smith has also maintained that there is more to what happened to her son than a hit-and-run and believes he was beaten by the way his body was found in the road.

Any donations that are left after the exhumation and autopsy are completed would go toward a scholarship fund to help college students pay for books, Sandy Smith added. Her son was pursuing a nursing career at the time of this death.
