The Owasso Police Department has released bodycam footage of an interview with Nex Benedict, a 16-year-old who died after a school bathroom fight. Nex, who identified as gender expansive, reported being bullied before the altercation. The police are investigating whether the fight was related to Nex's gender identity. The officer's interview with Nex has raised concerns, as he focused little on the girls' actions and suggested Nex could face assault charges for throwing water. Nex's family plans an independent investigation and urges officials to ensure accountability and prevent similar incidents.
