South Carolina fifth-grader Raniya Wright's death after a fight at school was due to natural causes, the prosecutor says

"There was no evidence of trauma on or inside her body ... that would indicate that any fight any magnitude contributed to her death," Stone, the area solicitor, said at a news conference."There will be no criminal charges brought," he said.

"It was a matter of time," he said.Stone, as well as Strickland and Richard Harvey, the county coroner, announced at the news conference their initial findings in the investigation of the 10-year-old's death. No weapons were involved in the school fight that left a 5th-grader dead, the sheriff's office saysIt's not clear what led to the confrontation between Raniya and another student at Forest Hills Elementary in Walterboro, about an hour's drive west of Charleston.

Who cares?

NATURAL CAUSES?!

I'm sorry I don't buy that explanation if she was in the fight in the first place she would still be alive something trigger that reaction the stress of the fight something did I would have that again sorry by someone else

something is really off

The devil is a live...conduct another autopsy! This is a not it!

BS

Terrible... clearly another example of minimizing bullying and racism😡

I call bullshit.

Lol fake news

I am a nurse with critical care experience. I have taken care of patients with AV malformations. I find it hard to believe that trauma did not hasten the bleed. I will have to trust the medical examiner on this one.

Natural causes: well there goes that law suit down the toilet.

You fight and you die and it is a natural cause!!?

🙏🏿❤️ to the family, friends, and the school 😢

New One on me! I'm NOT a Doctor but I KNOW getting THE LIFE BEAT OUT OF YOU IS NOT NATURAL!!!!!! WHAT BULLSHIT!! I WILL Pray Everyday for this FAMILY!

If you consider fighting s natural cause WTF!!!

Really?

Something very wrong here. No 5th grader dies of natural causes. Maybe a 85 year old does

And the Titanic sank due to...just being too heavy?

DrTGIF What’s natural about that?

Hard to believe...

На мыло надо таких никчёмных прокуроров в следствии естественных причин.

Now that’s some BULL💩! Seriously! We’re suppose to believe a healthy 5th grader died of natural causes after a fight at school?

This is b.s. People are getting away with everything nowadays. R.I.P.

She had an unknown AVM yes, but it seems pretty clear the fight aggravated her condition,therefore causing her death. She gets in a physical fight then dies immediately after? Common sense. The attacker should 100% be charged.

☹️

B.S.

I can't read this article without thinking that this is just another attempt to defend and enable fighting/bullying in schools.

It’s amazing that even when the doctors say what happened people still question it and they are still smarter than the doctors pretty sad sorry the girl died but really Headaches many more times before the fight read the article

Anything to avoid liability.

Something smell bad

Says who? Billy Barr

SAD~~~~~~

So it appears she had an AVM which ruptured right after the fight. It’s a birth defect and she had complained 6 times of headaches in the weeks leading up to the unfortunate event. Why didn’t she have a CT after the headaches didn’t stop?

😢😥💔🙏🏽🙏🏽

Nope

It's amazing to see these twist race baiting media constantly try to sow racial division in america for profit. It's sick. The manipulation of blacks for profit.....lying to them to incite them to burn their communities down, so they can profit from broadcasting it.

Naturally got attacked

Couple of things: 1) No one is reading the article. She had been to the DR many times for headaches in the prior months. 2) Even if hitting her head caused it, why would the school be liable? Did they make her fight?

Omg. This is WRONG!

So sad.

Wth are they talking about!! A nine year old does not die of natural causes. “As a result of the fight she was airlifted to the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston.” What a terrible terrible FAILURE by the school and authorities

As someone with AVM, a minor hit that wouldn’t harm the average person can be deadly. This is BS. She’d still be alive had an adult stopped the bullying.

Naturally it is a child of not rich parents! Naturally she is not white! Naturally the school officials has to cover up! Naturally bullying is not a problem in that school! Come on a child died this cannot be from natural causes after a fight. R.I.P little girl.

That doesn't seem natural! Seriously.

But what if she had not been in a fight ?

Fighting in school is natural causes?

I doubt if the stress or the fear at the time would of helped the poor child. Rip raniya x

Lies.

What eight year old dies of natural causes in the 21st century? I call bullshit.

RaniyaWright RIP ArteriovenousMalformation' 'Stone said Raniya had visited a doctor at least six times relating to headaches since February 2017, including 13 days before the fight'...That Pretty Much Says It All, Right There!

How could it be natural causes if it was caused by a fight

Jeez. People here clearly having a reaction without even reading the article for context.. seems like natural causes is very plausible

She got into a fight. You should teach your children that a fight can easily result into death instead of finding someone to blame. And

What natural causes?

A fifth grader dies of natural causes? WTF is natural about a fifth grader dying after a fight?

The girl that beat her up must be related to Jussie smollet

Unbelievable!

Bull doo doo!

Wow this smells awful. The BS just keeps coming. The medical examiner as well as the school district needs to investigated by outside authorities

People commenting in this thread clearly haven't read the full article, but wanna talk big anyway. Sure guys, it's a conspiracy 🙄 Kids get in fights all the time, they don't often die as a result. Without a pre-existing medical condition, she prolly would've been fine.

It sounds like the investigator is paid by the city and trying to protect the school system from liability. So so sad.

Do you actually know what “natural causes” encompass?

She was murdered you idiot

Who made that determination? Was it the local white Terminex guy who freelances as the county coroner?

Here come the twitter medical experts🙄

So smoking does not cause cancer, it's the cigarettes?

And what were the natural causes? Asthma, Stroke, epilepsy diabetes? What?

VICE vicenews WhiteHouse someone has to break this story

A fifth grade girl in a fight? What has happened to our great nation? Sad times.

It sounds like investigators paid by the city to protect the school system from liability to me. Homeschool your kids people. The state cares nothing for them.

How does a child die of natural causes?

I’m sure somehow this is the white mans fault right?

Maybe she would have died from medical negligence eventually... but if she had not gotten in that fight she would not have died THAT day. I feel her doctor should also carry some blame here... she went to the dr complaining of headaches 7 times in 2 years.... 7 times!!

Uh .. what she hit her head on is the WEAPON🤦🏻‍♀️ I mean she didn’t hit her head on her own.. she was in a fight.. WHY was there a fight? 😡

I don’t care if vessels ruptured days before . She hit her head on bookshelf causing this. To the prosecutor.... do t be a dick.

South Carolina is full of racists

Thank you for this. I hadn’t been lied to all day and needed my fix.

They had better get a second opinion from someone who isn’t from the area. Sounds like a lie

Oh nothing new. If the girl was white I am sure the report would have been different. So now I learn that a fight had nothing to do with her death because she died of natural death. I wonder how much money was paid for this bs

WTH is this BS!!!!! How do they think that they can get away with this crap?

So sad

Glad it’s this and because she was beaten.

Cover up?

A fifth-grader does NOT die of natural causes.

Bullshit. If she hadn’t of been involved in that fight, she would still be with us today.

Sure it was

So they’re saying she was going to die that day anyway Ha you’ve got to be kidding me. This is bullshit just UNBELIEVABLE! JusticeforRaniyaWright

Yeah cuz dying at 10 is natural.. for real?

The fifth-grader...died of old age? Is this a joke? Who is this prosecutor? What’s their contact information?

What kind of crap is that? NO 5 yo dies of natural causes EVER!!!

This is outrageous!

Yeah, it is pretty natural to die after getting the shit beaten out of you. Natural, because of all the internal injuries.

What kind of fifth grader is dying of natural causes after a fight? Something is very off here.

Amid growing concern over ride-share safety, Lyft announces new security featuresJust weeks after the death of a University of South Carolina student who was killed after getting into a car that she believed was her Uber, other ride-share companies are increasing their security features. People think these new companies should be perfect, but there is no such thing and total security. People can be evil, just like before facebook, lyft, uber ....etc.... If she'd followed the security instructions in the first place, this never would have happened. It tells you make, model, license , and name of the driver. It's YOUR job to make sure that's your ride. Duhhhhhh .... I mean in todays society , unfortunately we must as fighters say .... '' protect yourself at all times''
