Quick Update on Lance Lundsten's Death

Yesterday, I posted the story about Lance and how he may have comitted suicide from anti-gay bullying.

Well, his father has a different story:

Lance's father called KSAX and said he received a call from the coroner saying Lance had an enlarged heart and died of a coronary edema. He said he believed it was not a suicide.
He also believed there were no signs of drugs or alcohol in his son's system, but the toxicology report has not been finished according the medical examiner's office. The medical examiner's office also said they had no comment about the phone call to Lance's father. 
More to come from this story.

Either way, tragic.

I agree. It may have been a medical issue that caused his death, but he was yet another in a long line of bullied LGBTQ teens.
