The parents of nine-year-old Chantel Crump are intensifying their efforts to obtain the findings of a second autopsy, expressing frustration over the prolonged wait for answers regarding their daughter’s tragic death. Chantel was abducted earlier this year while walking home from Five Islands Primary School and was later discovered deceased in Weatherhills. A 20-year-old woman, Angela Mejia, has since been charged with her murder. The initial autopsy proved inconclusive, prompting investigators to send tissue samples abroad for further analysis. The second autopsy report, recently completed by an overseas pathologist, has yet to be disclosed to the family. Police have informed the Crumps that the results will only be revealed in court on November 5, a timeline the grieving parents find unacceptable. ‘We have waited for months,’ Chantel’s father stated. ‘We are her parents. We deserve to know what killed our child.’ The family is scheduled to meet with Police Commissioner Everton Jeffers on Monday to formally request the immediate release of the report. The delay in receiving definitive answers has compounded their anguish, with Chantel’s father emphasizing, ‘We have suffered enough. We just want the truth.’ The case has drawn significant public attention, highlighting the emotional toll on families awaiting justice in such harrowing circumstances.
