Renowned forensic investigator Kenny Kinsey, who gained recognition for his testimony in the high-profile 2023 Murdaugh murder trial, has turned his expertise to the mysterious death of Stephen Smith. Kinsey has embarked on an independent investigation into Smith’s death, expressing concerns that critical evidence might have been overlooked during the initial 2015 inquiry.
Stephen Smith’s body was discovered with a significant 7½-inch skull fracture, and the incident was promptly reported to emergency services. Although Smith’s death was originally classified as a hit-and-run, investigators have since argued that the available evidence does not conclusively support this conclusion.
In a bid to uncover the truth, Smith’s body has been exhumed for a new autopsy before being reinterred, as investigators seek to resolve unanswered questions surrounding his demise.
