The Smith County Sheriff's Office in Mississippi is now investigating the death of Rasheem Carter, a 25-year-old Black man, as a potential homicide. Carter had warned his mother that he was being chased by white men hurling racial slurs shortly before his death, and Smith County Sheriff Joel Houston has defended his initial determination that no evidence pointed to homicide. Carter's family and friends are still mourning the loss of their loved one, and are asking anyone with information about Carter's death to come forward.
