An autopsy could be the key to finding out what happened to a Mobile woman killed Saturday night.
Luisa Christine White, who friends called CJ, was struck by a train on Wooley Road. Investigators are calling the death suspicious, saying they are not convinced the train killed the 35 year old woman.
A spokeswoman with the Mobile Police Department says what a medical examiner learns during an autopsy, which is scheduled for Monday, could answer a lot of questions about her death.
"We're looking at every angle, and that's why the autopsy is pretty important to this. We need know a cause of death, and that's going to be an anchor point for us," said Nancy Johnson.
One of White's last known addresses was a trailer park on Old Pascagoula Road in Theodore. Neighbors there say they didn't think White had any enemies who would want to kill her, but one neighbor said she did get in to several domestic disputes with boyfriends.
According to court records, in 2003, White was arrested for domestic violence.
Johnson says she does not know when the autopsy results will be released. Homicide investigators are working the case.
