Oklahoma nonbinary teen’s death is ruled a suicide, triggering anger

The death of a nonbinary teen who collapsed a day after an altercation at a high school in Owasso, Okla., has been ruled a suicide, according to a one-page summary report released Wednesday by the state’s chief medical examiner.

Nex Benedict’s death last month triggered vigils not only in that Tulsa suburb but across the country because the sophomore, who used they/them pronouns, had told family that other students were bullying them in school.

The fight happened Feb. 7. The 16-year-old collapsed at home the next morning and died within hours at a Tulsa hospital. The medical examiner’s report said the teen had antihistamine and antidepressant “combined toxicity” in their system. For manner of death, the box checked was “suicide.” The full autopsy report is to be released March 27. Investigators are awaiting that report before submitting their findings to the Tulsa County district attorney, according to Lt. Nick Boatman, a spokesman for the Owasso Police Department. The summary references both Nex’s preferred name and legal first name.

“From the beginning of this investigation, Owasso Police observed many indications that this death was the result of suicide. However, investigators did not wish to confirm that information without the final results being presented by the Oklahoma Medical Examiner’s Office,” the department said in a statement.

Children will always be nasty and bully other children, the same way that adults will do the same to other adults.

Legislation won’t change it. Education won’t change it.

The blood of this child is on the hands of every single parent, health care person, school official, legislator, media person who advocates and supports this cruel abomination inflicted on children.

These kids have serious mental issues to begin with, and rather than deal with these issues in the way they should be dealt with, these lunatics play along with the fantasy for two purposes - make lots of money and destroy more of humanity. Thinking they’ll be happy once they “transition”, then finding out they’re still mentally ill but with greater issues now, they tend to suicide in greater numbers.

I’m sure the parents of this boy or girl has no sense of guilt in not having gotten professional help for their child’s mental illness.

“...the sophomore, who used they/them pronouns, had told family that other students were bullying them in school.”


Why is the MSM using the preferred and incorrect pronouns of a mentally disturbed person who killed herself after starting and losing a fight?

What did the alleged bullying involve? Refusal to use his/her ridiculous pronouns? (Couldn’t access the story.)

Over 40% of the mentally ill trans people eventually commit suicide. They need treatment, and they don’t get the treatment they need — instead they get lots of congratulations for wallowing in their mental illness. It doesn’t end well.

The truth means nothing compared to The Narrative.

The Democrats are a religious cult that practices child sacrifice in more ways than one.

"Them" is a plural pronoun. So "he" or "she" may well have been possessed by Legion.

“not having gotten professional help for their child’s mental illness.”

Considering that “professional help” now consists of butchers, I mean doctors, IMMEDIATELY prescribe buckets of powerful hormones and antipsychotics and tell the parents that if they don’t “trans” their kids the kid will commit suicide.

And when the kid does commit suicide? Well, then it must be society’s fault for not accepting “their real truth.”

Nothing raises the risk of suicide like “gender-affirming health care.”
