It sounds like, if a person with no health conditions had been in the same altercation, the end results would not have been fatal. So, is the accused to be charged with homicide at this point? According to the AJC-
The former fiancee of a cast member of the “Real Housewives of Atlanta” died from a rare trait of sickle cell anemia that became fatal because of a fight he had in the parking lot of a strip club. Still, according to a report from the Fulton County M.E. that was provided to AJC.com, Ashley “A.J.” Jewell’s death is a homicide.
“Although Mr. Jewell died of complications of his underlying natural disease conditions, [the] complications would not have occurred if he had not experienced the extreme exertion that was part of the physical altercation,” the report said. “Due to the active involvement of another person, the manner of death is classified as a homicide.”
Jewell’s family was angered by the report and plans to hold a prayer vigil at 7:30 p.m. Thursday in the parking lot of the strip bar, the location of the fight that led to his death later that evening, according to a news release. See more at AJC.com
