Let's say the coroner isn't full of shit, which I'm not convinced of- what was the cause of the suicide?

Because I'm guessing it had something to do with him (he preferred he/him) having the shit beaten out of him by a bunch of bigots.

Not that I don't have absolute, unshakeable, limitless faith in law enforcement and local school boards, but I genuinely hope Nex's family gets a second autopsy outside Oklahoma. Not least because their initial symptoms seemed to have a lot in common with head injury.

No, it won't bring Nex back. But if they did this, then establish that fact via disinterested parties. The local government and law enforcement are anything but neutral parties here.

If Nex's family is willing, I genuinely hope they are considering getting a second opinion: in many ways, this outcome lets the bullies off the hook . . . and not just the ones in the bathroom.

I don't need to know the details, but I would like to see this conclusion confirmed by another forensic medical examiner elsewhere, and I don't think I'm the only one.

What a world we live in where children are dying because people can’t manage to learn some pronouns.

Poor kid.

What happened with the bullies that started the fight? Are they being punished for pushing a kid to kill themselves?

Apparently Nex started the fight by pouring water on them. Hard to believe that someone might lash out > that way if there wasn't a history of bullying though.
