Let family grieve son in peace

I found the recent new article in regard to Gerald Belz was a horrible insult to a grieving mom and dad ('Report: UI student died of hypothermia, had THC in system,” Feb. 15). It's my opinion that it is no one's business what was in his system.
I lost my son, Nik, also a student at the University of Iowa, a few years ago. The pain is unbearable.
Let the Belz family grieve in peace. He was a bright young man. Leave it at that.
