The Faber family, already grappling with the devastating loss of two loved ones, now faces additional anguish due to confusion surrounding an autopsy. Shamar Faber, a victim of a tragic shooting near the KHMH in March, passed away on Tuesday, just ten days after his mother, Sheneile, was brutally murdered and left in a garbage drum. The family had planned a joint funeral for Sunday but encountered a significant obstacle when they were informed that Shamar’s body required an autopsy, despite already possessing a death certificate. This raised fears of a postponed funeral. However, in a sudden turn of events, the autopsy was canceled on the eve of the funeral, leaving the family in a state of bewilderment and frustration. Shawnette Tillett, Shamar’s aunt, expressed her distress, revealing that no clear explanation was provided for the cancellation. She recounted being told that the KHMH failed to supply necessary medical documents, halting the process. The family remains in limbo, unable to proceed with funeral arrangements or access Shamar’s body, while the funeral home faces financial losses due to the uncertainty. The lack of communication and clarity from authorities has compounded the family’s grief, leaving them searching for answers in an already unbearable situation.
