Nex Benedict’s Death Triggers Federal Investigation

On Friday, the U.S. Department of Education announced an investigation into an Oklahoma school district for allegedly failing to respond to reports of sex-based harassment after the death of Nex Benedict, a trans teen who died the day after an altercation with three girls inside a high school bathroom. The DOE dropped the news in a letter addressed to the Human Rights Campaign, which filed a formal complaint asking the agency to look into the district last month. “We need [the DOE] to act urgently so there can be justice for Nex, and so that all students at Owasso High School and every school in Oklahoma can be safe from bullying, harassment, and discrimination,” aid HRC president, Kelley Robinson, in a statement.
