I don't know what happened (and can't find anything official about the investigation), but here's what the family is telling everyone:
"So Mom, There was a missionary that
died in the field in serving in Mexico.
He is our old ward mission leader's son. Our old ward mission leader-
brother Maughan's son died a couple of weeks ago....really sad....it was a
suicide. He got sick and started taking
pill medication to recover from his sickness.
So after he recovered from his sickness he continued to take the pills
which caused him to developed severe depression. There was a note found that
was left...basically Elder Peter Allen Maughan was serving his mission in
Mexico. One day his companion walked in
the room (don't remember where he was) and found a cord wrapped around Elder
Maughan's neck and a bag over his head...awful! Now there's TONS of coverage about this and a
lot of speculation. I don't care what is
being said in the media. There's a lot
of stuff out there saying it was murder or they're trying to use this to
speculate all this baloney about the LDS church. I don't care what anyone out there saying. Brother Maughan had the spirit confirm to him
that his son's test in life was done and completed. He did everything our Heavenly Father wanted
him to do...his son will not be accountable for this! The medication made him do this..."
