“RHOA” Murder Update: A.J. Jewell Body Exhumed For Second Autopsy
A second autopsy has been requested in the death of A.J. Jewell.
Ashley “A.J.” Jewell, who appeared alongside former Xscape star Kandi Burruss on Bravo reality show The Real Housewives of Atlanta, died in October following a brawl in a bar parking lot in Atlanta, Georgia.

Police have ruled his death a homicide after the Fulton County Medical Examiner found the massive head injuries he suffered in the bust-up had aggravated Jewell’s existing medical conditions, including sickle cell disease, leading to his passing. But Jewell’s relatives are not entirely convinced by the coroner’s report and the Fulton County District Attorney has “tentatively” agreed to grant the family’s request for another autopsy.
“Physical altercation resulting in sickle cell trait related exertional collapse” and an enlarged heart have been listed as contributing factors in A.J.’s death.
