Authorities had ruled out foul play in December, but toxicology results were pending. Those tests were negative, except for caffeine and medication paramedics used in attempts to resuscitate the teen, Lee said.

~Only caffeine and resuscitation meds, huh?  Clearly he was off his psych meds, and it cost him and the Dungy family dearly.  Considering that he attempted to take his life back in October (purposeful drug overdose in which he called parametics), the fact that there were no psychotropic drugs in his system is puzzling.

~I wonder why he was allowed to continue living on his own and attend school when he tried to kill himself before?  A suicide attempt speaks to severe emotional problems that call for intensive help, withdrawal from school, and being in the care of a guardian.

~One article said that he suffered a concussion several years ago when he was standing on his father's sideline and some football players came careening out-of-bounds and crashing into him.  Concussions can predispose one to depression.  Just a theory...

~He didn't look like the rest of the Dungy children.  Was he a child from a previous relationship?  Are all 5 of those kids the children of Dungy and his current wife?  A 21-year-old, a (deceased) 19-year-old, a 13-year-old...then a 5-year-old and a 4-year old.  I wonder...
