YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe death of 16-year-old nonbinary student Nex Benedict was not caused by injuries sustained in a fight in a school bathroom the day before, authorities said Wednesday.
A preliminary autopsy report by the medical examiner’s office indicated the Oklahoma teen did not die from trauma, Owasso police said.
Benedict — who identified as nonbinary, according to family — died on Feb. 8, a day after getting into a fight that might have been sparked by bullying about their gender identity.
“At this time, any further comments on the cause of death are currently pending until toxicology results and other ancillary testing results are received,” police said. “The official autopsy report will be available at a later date.”
Police and the Tulsa-area school have not said what led to the brawl, but the teen’s family said there was harassment over the teen’s nonbinary identity.
