The cowards, this is how its being reported on all major news channels. Lie after lie.

In a statement to ABC News, the Owasso Police Department said it suspected the cause of Benedict's death, but refrained from saying anything pending the results of the medical examiner's office.

The students of Oklahoma are holding walkouts to honor Nex. It would be appreciated if you joined any nearby vigil or march honoring them, in solidarity.

Remember that this wasn't some passive death, transphobes actively and knowingly agitated harm against them. This was a murder, not a suicide. They, an indigenous trans minor, died in the hospital after being assaulted in the bathroom by 6 transphobes.

Last week, a family buried their nonbinary child, Nex Benedict, who died after being brutally beaten in the girls’ bathroom at their high school in Oklahoma. According to their mother, 16-year-old Benedict had been bullied relentlessly for a year leading up to the incident, in which a group of peers ganged up on them and a trans student. It’s a horrific case and one that is inseparable from its context amid a climate of seemingly unceasing anti-LGBT demonization in the state and the nation.

[Challenging: Success] β€” Right here, in a time long before you, the sky is filled with ash. The stink of black powder catches the breeze, blows between burning buildings lit by flames and moonlight. Engines roar along the currents. Balls of smoking turpentine fall from cop-piloted biplanes, turning homes and shops to tinderboxes. Every great and terrible moment is fossilized beneath the layers of steaming tar poured by city officials to bury any record that they had ever occurred. In Tulsa, in Owasso, on the Trail of Tears β€” the story is always the same.

β€” The state of Oklahoma was built on cover-ups, Detective.
