That second drug is not mentioned in the article Official autopsy report announced by prosecutor Andrés Madrea this week. Instead, the report revealed “traces of alcohol, cocaine and prescription antidepressants.” His death was the result of “multiple injuries” and “internal and external bleeding” from the three-story fall, Madrea said.
According to Madrea, officials do not believe Payne’s death was intentional. Since the singer “did not adopt a reflexive posture” as one would instinctively do even when jumping intentionally, “it can be inferred that he may have fallen into a state of partial or complete unconsciousness.” .”
“Three additional medico-legal reports confirm that all injuries are consistent with a high fall, ruling out self-harm or third party involvement,” Madrea’s statement said. three”. “Because of this, forensic psychiatric experts were consulted to determine whether Payne could have been in a depressed or unconscious state at the time of the fall, which the prosecutor believes would be denied possibility of voluntary action on his part.”
Following an investigation that included analyzing more than 800 hours of security video from cameras inside and near the hotel, examining the contents of Payne’s cell phone and interviewing “several dozen” people including hotel staff , Payne’s friends and family, three people Madrea said were arrested and charged with “criminal abandonment of a person to death” and “supplying and facilitating drugs”.
Those suspects were not named, but according to Madrea, one was a hotel employee who twice obtained cocaine for Payne, a second was a person who supplied Payne with drugs twice on October 14, and the third was the person who was with Payne “every day” during his visit to Buenos Aires.
Rogelio “Roger” Nores, founder of the investment firm is said to have grown close to Payne after meeting him at a party in 2020, said via statement that although he was traveling with Payne at the moment of death, that person is not him. “I never abandoned Liam,” Argentine millionaire told Daily mail. “I went to his hotel three times that day and left 40 minutes before the incident. There were more than 15 people in the hotel lobby chatting and joking with him when I left. I could never have imagined something like this would happen.”
“I gave my statement to the prosecutor on October 17 as a witness and I have not spoken to any police officer or prosecutor since then,” he said. “I’m not Liam’s manager, he’s just my very close friend.”
On Wednesday, Payne’s body was returned to England, where it was returned to his family, BBC reported. Sun reports that a date for his funeral has been set, but details of his memorial plans have not yet been publicly released.
