6. No, that was a different student

"Before him, Midshipman 1st Class Juan “Jimmy” Jimenez, a 22-year-old general engineering major from Latham, N.Y., was found dead at a Prince George’s shooting range in 2017. Then academy Superintendent Vice Admiral Ted Carter said the student died from “an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound” in a note to faculty and staff after Jimenez’s death."

From the link in the OP.

They have not determined this student's cause of death:

The U.S. Naval Academy announced Friday that Forney, 22, was found unresponsive by a fellow midshipman in Bancroft Hall, the school’s dormitory, on Thursday evening. Forney was transported to Anne Arundel County Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead at 11:28 p.m. Officials said foul play is not suspected and the cause of death is under investigation.
