Kendrick Johnson was the Georgia high school student who was found dead, rolled up in a gym mat, in the Lowndes High School wrestling room. A police investigation found that Johnson’s death was accidental, but his family maintains that “it was murder,” WTXL explains.

On Twitter, people are calling on FSU to rescind Bell’s football scholarship:

I ask EVERYONE to tweet to @FSU_Football condemning them for taking BRIAN BELL who is the target suspect of MURDER. #JusticeForKJ
