I think they are still investigating but it sounds like they forgot about him-the investigation is continuiung-the story should come up by clicking on the link-hopefully it works-it is the first time I tried to post anything-it is sad though-20 year old young man-too young ,too young

The Bucks County coroner says he died of hypothermia.

Uh...I think that's hyperthermia.

Not that it matters--heat or cold, this poor man was left alone to die. Is anyone going to be held responsible for this?

It's like busy parents leaving their babies in cars for the same fate. Do they get in trouble? (I'm not sure).

well it depends on how functional he was...if he was a low functioning autistic like had M.R. or something like that, then yes they can be held accountable for criminal neglect.
