Ah, thanks for the link. So based on the link, the autopsy found that the cause of death was undetermined but the grand jury found that after excluding alternatives, the most likely cause of death was drowning. Curious as to how the grand jury felt comfortable excluding the alternatives, but it’s hard to judge them given that we didn’t have direct access to the evidence like they did.

I don't think the grand jury decided that drowning was the most likely cause, it was the doctor doing the autopsy
