Singer Aaron Carter died of drowning in his bath following inhaling refrigerant gas and consuming Xanax, concluded the coroner who looked into the death of the star which occurred last November.
According to the report notably relayed by “TMZ” and “People”, the younger brother of Backstreet Boys singer Nick Carter lost consciousness due to the drugs he had taken, causing him to slip in his bath and drown.
Toxicology analysis revealed that Carter had inhaled difluoroethane, a gas that can act as a refrigerant. It is also used in compressed gas cylinders as a dust remover.
At low concentrations, difluoroethane can cause feelings of euphoria, but is highly toxic at high concentrations.
Alprazolam, a tranquilizer used to counter anxiety commonly known by the trade name Xanax, was also found in Aaron Carter’s body.
According to the coroner’s report, several cans of dust remover were found in the home where Carter died.
The coroner’s report, however, leaves those close to the singer skeptical. His ex-fiancée and mother of his children, Melanie Martin, was cautious.
“The result of the autopsy does not allow me to turn the page. He claims that the cause of death was drowning, but adds that he was wearing a t-shirt and a necklace in the bath, which does not make sense; why would he have gone into the bath with his clothes on. […] I don’t understand the chain of events and this report just makes us ask ourselves more questions, ”she reacted when asked by TMZ.
Aaron’s mother, Jane Carter, said last March that she believed her son may have been the victim of murder, not an accident as the coroner concluded.
