Authorities have not ruled out the possibility that a fight at school may have contributed to the death of nonbinary teen Nex Benedict, who died a day after being beaten by bullies in an Oklahoma high school bathroom. The police clarified that the medical examiner's office did not rule out the fight as a contributing factor to the 16-year-old's death, and released bodycam footage and 911 audio to address misinformation. No charges have been filed, and the family has launched an independent investigation into the teen's death, which has sparked protests and vigils across the US.
