Shocking details of Aaron Carter's death revealed in autopsy report
The cause of Aaron Carter's death is revealed in an autopsy report shared on Tuesday, 5 months after his death
Aaron Carter's cause of death has been revealed, 5 months after the singer's sudden passing.
As per the copy of an autopsy report obtained by Page Six on Tuesday, the late singer died from drowning and the effects of difluoroethane, which is a flammable gas, often used as the propellant in cans of compressed air, and alprazolam, a generic form of Xanax.
While, the manner of singer's death was ruled accidental in the autopsy, the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s report also confirmed that Carter was "submerged" in his bathtub after "inhalation of compressed gas and intake of alprazolam."
For the unversed, difluoroethane is a "colorless, odorless gas" which can cause "frostbite" and is "easily ignited."
According to medical experts, Alprazolam is a tablet formed drug and is consumed to treat "depression" and fear of open spaces.
Carter was 34-year-old, when he was found dead in a bathtub at his home in Lancaster, on November 5, 2022.
The autopsy report also revealed that the singer was "unresponsive" and had no "life-threatening traumatic injuries" at the time of his passing, also adding that he was pronounced dead at the scene.
"The family has been notified and will be flying out to Los Angeles. Aaron worked very hard towards the end of his life in recovery, to be a good father and to make amends with his family," his rep told Page Six at the time.
At the time of his death, Carter’s body was discovered by his housekeeper, who was "yelling” when she called 911 for help.
The I Want Candy singer’s mom, Jane Carter, urged for a “real investigation” into her son's death, as she refused to believe that her son died of an accidental overdose.
"They never investigated it as a possible crime scene because of his addiction past," she wrote in March on Facebook, alongside grisly images of Aaron’s death scene.
In addition to that, the singer’s pals too, were suspicious of the circumstances surrounding their late friend’s death.
"He would always be paranoid about people being after him or [that] somebody is after him," explained Bryan Cassidy, who was pretty close to the singer for the last three years of his life.
Meanwhile, Aaron’s former manager Morgan Matthews recalled his client once telling him, "‘There are people after me, I need help, I need to get out of this town.'"
