The La Salle County coroner says his best estimate is we'll know the cause of death for the 25-year-old grad student in the next one to two weeks.

His family isn't even close to finding closure. Newsy justice reporter Jamal Andress asked police about surveillance footage released to the public and pressed for answers to the question: What happened to Jelani Day?

Jamal Andress: Absolutely Chance. I just got off the phone with the Jelani Day family attorney.
