Late IU student Joseph Smedley’s death was officially ruled a suicide by drowning, Monroe County coroner Nicole Meyer said.
The death ruling was made in conjunction with the toxicology reports’ results taken from the body. Toxicology reports will not be released to the public, Meyer said.
Smedley was initially reported missing by his family Sept. 28 and was then found dead in Griffy Lake on Friday, Oct. 2.
