Media Ran With Claim That ‘Nonbinary’ Teen, Nex Benedict, Died From ‘Brain Trauma’ Caused By Bullies. Nex Benedict’s actual cause of death revealed by medical examiner as SUICIDE: Trans teen took fatal cocktail of antihistamine and anti-depressants, medical examiner rules.
(The death of a person, especially a young person is a sad event … nevertheless, when it comes to the death of a person afflicted with gender dysphoria, commonly referred to as “trans”, NEVER, EVER, believe the first story that comes from the victim pandering media. You have to wait a couple of days until the truth leaks out.)
Nex, 16, who was born Dagny, died on February 8, just a day after sustaining head trauma in a bathroom fight in Owasso High School, Oklahoma.
Nex’s death became a rallying point for trans and LGBT activists across the country - and several vigils and walk-outs were organized to remember the student.
Nex's biological grandmother and legal guardian, Sue Benedict, told The Independent that her child has been repeatedly bullied by various students for over a year due to their non-binary identity.
New admitted that during the school encounter that she had poured water on other girls provoking them to assault her.
Bodycam footage was previously released following the account Nex gave police describing the attack by 'bullies' in a school bathroom the day before they died.
The 21-minute interview, conducted at Owasso hospital just two hours after the February 7 fight, detailed the events leading up to the altercation, prior to Nex getting discharged.
Officer Caleb Thompson spoke with the 16-year-old, accompanied by their mother, Sue.
'So what happened today?' officer Thompson, asked.
'I got jumped,' Nex responded, before Sue interjects, telling the officer about Nex's complaints of ongoing bullying.
'[Nex] said mom, these three girls there, they're making comments, they're calling us names, they're throwing stuff at us,' she said.
'[Nex] did, until [they] couldn't, in the bathroom,' Sue told the officer.
Nex then described the provocation, recalling how the girls ridiculed them before Nex poured water on them.
'They said something like 'why do they laugh like that,' and they were talking about us, in front of us,' Nex told Thompson. 'So I went up and poured water on them and all three of them came at me.'
Officer Thompson appeared to dissuade Nex and their mother from pursuing charges, cautioning them about potential legal ramifications for both parties involved.
He questioned Nex about their decision not to report the girls' actions to school officials, to which Nex responds: 'I didn't see the point. I told my mom.'
'You got freedom of speech,' the officer said. 'The minute you threw water on them you made the first jab. It may not go the direction you want it to go.'
'Running the mouth is freedom of speech, unfortunately,' the officer adds. 'You can say mean, hurtful things all day long and you gotta let it roll off your shoulder.'
Sue asked: 'What about cause there were three of them, and (Nex) only threw water on one.'
Thompson argued that regardless of the girl's actions, Nex started the fight, causing a 'domino effect' of events. He claimed both Nex and the girls as both 'victims' and 'suspects.'
