Minneapoli's edition to Sparde Allison Lussier Tables, Filde

The Minneapolis City auditor will carry out a special review of the investigation by the police department for Allison Lussier's death, a step that is greeted by her family.

City examiner to review Allison Lussier's death examination

The background story:

After a request from her family, the Minneapolis City auditor will check Allison Lussier's death examination, which claimed her family to have botched the police. The move, which was announced on Monday evening, takes place more than a year after her body was discovered in her apartment in North Loop. Lussier suffered a head injury, but the police also said that she had large amounts of fentanyl and methamphetamine in her system. The medical examiner finally ruled her nature of death as “indefinite”, which frustrated her family members who believe that her friend killed her. They said their death came with the couple after a story of domestic violence.

What you say:

Lussier's family was happy after the city carried out an examination of its death examination.

“We were thrilled. Of course we were happy about it. We need transparency,” said her aunt Jana Williams. “We need someone who will look at this without offset eyes, they know and give us a fair shot about what happened here.”

“It was a relief, you know, and – because we have been fighting for it for a year, and it was just a rough one,” her sister Tiffany Jackson recalled.

The Minneapolis police chief provides for possible changes to politics after the examination, but no criminal charges

What could happen after the exam:

The chief of police at Minneapolis, Brian O'Hara, said on Tuesday that he suspected that the audit could stimulate the changes in politics, but not criminal charges.

“In order to condemn someone of a crime, the evidence requires a doubt -free evidence, and we have a medical examiner who says that the type of death is indefinite,” he said. “The best possible result we could have is that there may be a policy or a practice that we improve for the future, which is great and I'm all for it.”

What's next:

The city auditor's office announced that the special review will take several months. A report is then published in which the results of the city administrators are described.
