Authorities still haven't determined what caused the death of a youth who died while being restrained at the Bowling Brook Preparatory School.
It's been a month since Isaiah Simmons after the incident in Carroll County.
And authorities also haven't determined whether any laws were broken in the way the juvenile facility's staff handled him.
Investigators say dozens of people have been interviewed. The methods allegedly used to restrain Simmons at the privately run residential program for juvenile offenders have provoked criticism from medical experts and national authorities on safe ways to subdue unruly youths.
