BRONX - A Bronx teenager’s death has been ruled a homicide when he was found dead in his Westchester Square apartment. No charges have been filed so far.
The Medical Examiner’s office ruled that 15-year-old Corde Scott’s death was a homicide. The ME said the the compression of the teen’s death caused “homicidal asphyxia.”
At around 4:18 om on January 23, 15-year-old Corde Scott was taken from his apartment on Dorris Street and rushed to Jacobi Medical Center- but it was too late. The teen was pronounced dead at the hospital.
Scott’s 28-year-old stepfather was questioned by police. Cops had initially believed the stepfather was acting in self defense during an argument.
The NY Post is reporting that the stepdad had just been released in December after serving three years in prison for an assault.
