Mother's Desperate Search Ends in Heartbreaking Discovery

A mother in Mississippi spent over a year searching for her missing son, only to discover through an NBC News investigation that he had been found dead and buried in a pauper's field without the family's knowledge. The Hinds County coroner's office and the Jackson Police Department failed to notify the family of Jonathan Hankins' death, leaving them in anguish and unable to properly mourn. The family is now seeking accountability and changes to the system to ensure proper handling of such cases.
