You are right. This is the quote from the press release from the Sheriff's Office " The manner of death determined by the pathologist was homicide." I don't know why the Mendocino Voice article didn't include that more explicitly. I would typically have linked directly to the press release, but it was distributed by email and I did not see it posted on the Sheriff's Facebook page.
Nowhere in that article you linked does it say anything about Nicolas Bakewell's death being rule a homicide.

These summaries are great.
