Deputy State Coroner Hugh Dillon has found that a boy, who died after a schoolyard brawl on the New South Wales north coast, wasn't bashed to death or murdered, but was the victim of terrible luck.
After two weeks of hearings Mr Dillon has ruled it impossible to pinpoint precisely what caused the severe brain haemorrhage which led to Jai Morcom's death following a brawl at Mullumbimby High School on August 28, 2009.
Deputy State Coroner has told the Lismore court it would be wrong to point the finger of blame at anyone.
He's also found there was no culture of violence at Mullumbimby High and there was little or nothing to warn that a fight was about to erupt.
Outside the court Jai's father Steve Drummond has told reporters he's bitterly disappointed with the findings which has left him felling emotionally gutted.
