INFO:

The 12-year-old boy who was found deceased at a wilderness therapy camp in western North Carolina earlier this month reportedly experienced a panic attack the night he arrived and was found cold, stiff and frothing at the mouth the next morning, search warrants show. While it’s unclear what caused the boy’s mouth to froth, that “could’ve indicated that he ingested some sort of poison,” according to an affidavit from a detective who obtained the search warrant. When detectives with the Transylvania County Sheriff’s Office attempted to interview other juveniles at Trails Carolina who were there when the boy died, the camp staff members refused to allow investigators to see or interview them, the search warrant documents say.
