As loved ones prepare to say goodbye to Brian Christopher during funeral services Friday, the Lawler family attorney is raising concerns surrounding the events of the 46-year-old's jail suicide.
Ted Hansom, who represents the Lawlers, told NBC affiliate WMC-TV they're interested in learning even the smallest details of the case.
"It would be interesting to see the actual events that took place: his conduct, his reaction, his movements, his speech -- any request for medical assistance," Hansom said.
The attorney says he's accepting the initial details from the Hardeman County Sheriff and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation at face value. However, he and the family are interested in seeing all the evidence -- particularly what was captured on film.
“Obviously in this day and time places in particularly jails have video cameras in just about every corner, so it would be interesting to see the actual events,” Hansom added.
WMC-TV reporter Brandon Richard found out the footage could be a small issue. A June legal notice revealed the jail is taking bids for a new camera system. Richard also discovered the facility was asked in a February state report to provide better documentation for inmate checks. Jailers are required to check on inmates hourly.
Requests for comment from the Hardeman County Sheriff's Office weren't returned to WMC.
The Lawler family lawyer added the medical examiner's report should have quite a bit more information about the physical circumstances surrounding Christopher's death. There's no timeline on when that might be released.
