Sandra Bland, the 28-year-old Chicago native who was found dead in a Texas jail cell in July, committed suicide because her family and friends failed to post her bond after she was arrested for a minor traffic violation.

The autopsy showed a bullet from a .38 caliber entered Green's chin, causing his death. The teen had a gun of the same description on him the day he died. It belonged to a friend of the family.

Details about just what happened on Wednesday remain unclear. And hours after the incident, the family's attorney, William H. Murphy, Jr. tweeted a statement requesting privacy.
