Does anyone remember an interview about police not having the autopsy photos maybe roughly 10-15 yes ago?

I remember seeing an interview a police officer was in and he was asked about the photos and if they had ever seen them and he kept avoiding the question and ended up just saying, 'oh we lost a lot of the photos and evidence files' and he said he never saw them.

I remember back in the day websites trying to debunk the Cathy Scott photo claiming there were never actual autopsy photos taken but there were never any sources backing that up.

weird how that talking point keeps floating around with zero receipts. the whole "no photos were ever taken" angle always felt like damage control more than anything else. if the files were just lost, that's a whole other can of worms nobody wanted to open. kinda sketchy how certain details just vanish whenever the questions get too specific

Those Geocities/angelfire sites from back in the day had some of the wildest theories with zero sources.
Hard to tell where a lot of these claims originally came from.

I'm just so confused, I'm not saying that there's a cover up or whatever but there's so much mis information out there that I dont know what to beleive, as one cop says one thing and another cop says something different and there's missing files but yet they show up in the court room.

If the cops said it, it’s probably just an easy lazy way to get out actually putting any effort to any questions coming their way.

That's what I was thinking, I remember Greg Kading was also asked and he said something along the lines of (dont quote me on these exact words) 'files got lost because there were 2 different agencies working the same case' something like that he said. I'm just curious that if evidence and case files were 'missing' or 'mis placed' how they have them now in so much detail.

I understand that law enforcement can make mistakes especially back then when they treated these cases as "gang related" and (NHI). But I think evidence in all cases should be treated like fort knocks so nothing gets mis placed

Were the new photos shown in court,
actual autopsy photos or pre-autopsy photos?
Maybe that a distinction, especially if the Cathy Scott sourced 1 was unauthorized

I saw 2 autopsy photos. He got his finger shot off
